Late-Night Comics Keep Pushing Florida Covid Lies

BUCK: I want you to keep in mind that Florida, Clay — am I right about this? — still lowest caseload or maybe within the top two or three states, but probably lowest.

CLAY: I think Hawaii might now be lower, but the lowest continental United States entire country.

BUCK: Lowest case for covid in the country is Florida, and here’s the kind of stuff you hear on late-night TV.

KIMMEL: Florida yesterday reported their first case of Omicron, and Omicron reported its first case of Florida.

AUDIENCE: (laughter and applause)

KIMMEL: So rest assured, Governor Omicron DeSantis will do everything he can to make sure as many Floridians get infected as possible.

AUDIENCE: (wild cheers, laughter and applause)

BUCK: I don’t mean to be mean, but are his audience…? Are they all morons?

CLAY: Yes.

BUCK: Did they just not read the newspaper or know anything? Why is it funny to make a joke about…? First of all, it’s not funny giving covid to people. But beyond that, Ron DeSantis is the anti-covid governor right now. He’s the one that’s doing victory laps. But they just live in an alternate reality.

CLAY: I think it is a big lesson for everybody out there, and I want to keep hammering this home ’cause one thing that I have learned, conservatives are far more aware of what liberals say and do than liberals are of what conservatives say and do. That’s because the country is so sated by liberal political thought — sports, culture, politics, everywhere — you can’t escape it if you’re a conservative.

But there are lots of liberal silos out there, Buck, where people think, “Oh, Florida, it’s the worst state out there for covid.” They believe things that are fundamentally untrue. We’ve talked about this, Buck. The fact that people believe who are liberal, if you get covid, it’s like a 50% chance that you’re gonna get hospitalized when the reality is — I’m one, you’re one — most people who get covid get over it. Many people get over it and they never even knew they had it. It’s less significant than a cold. They somehow — even two years in — don’t understand basic facts and reality.
