There is ample evidence that Team Biden is growing increasingly nervous about Ron DeSantis, the Florida governor, so nervous that they floated out the idea of cutting off the Sunshine State from domestic travel because of made-up fears of COVID-19.

DeSantis has handled the coronavirus better than any other elected official in the world, outside of Sweden. He has resisted imposing worthless and counter-productive mask mandates. He has worked overtime to keep all schools open in his state. He has led the country in vaccinating at-risk senior citizens. He has used actual science and examined actual data, not bowing to the fantasy narratives spun by Washington bureaucrats.

The bolded leaves me puzzled, especially the implication that fear of DeSantis' electability could drive travel limitations to Florida.

I think that from a Trump supporter's perspective he has handled it "better" than anyone.
