California Gov. Gavin Newsom's lockdown-weighty way to deal with the Coronavirus pandemic is confronting new examination as he tracks down a far-fetched partner in previous President Donald Trump in going after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' treatment of the pandemic in front of the 2024 official political race.
Trump as of late named DeSantis the "lockdown lead representative," despite the fact that the Florida lead representative's limitations were among the most un-cumbersome - and brief - in the country. During the pandemic, DeSantis confronted weighty analysis, including from Trump's own organization, for not overwhelming the sort of limitations that California and different states did.
While Florida's Coronavirus demise rate is for sure higher than California's, its rate is still comparable to the lockdown-heaviest states like New Jersey, Michigan and New York. Furthermore, Florida's old populace, the heaviest hit populace from the pandemic, makes up 21% of the Daylight State, making it the most seasoned state in the country second just to Maine, contrasted with youthful California with just 15% of its populace being 65 and more established.
As a matter of fact, a recently delivered concentrate on uncovered that California and Florida have had generally equivalent wellbeing results, regardless of their ridiculously various methodologies, yet California experienced far more terrible financial and instruction results than Florida because of its delayed lockdowns.
Be that as it may, Trump plainly sees a political benefit in lining up with Newsom against DeSantis, and keeping in mind that Trump and Newsom keep on pounding the Florida lead representative, they have ceased from focusing on one another, in any event, whenever offered the chance to do as such.
Trump hasn't condemned Newsom's pandemic reaction either, despite the fact that Newsom was the primary lead representative in the country to give a stay-at home request.
Newsom, whose name has been drifted as a potential leftist option in contrast to President Biden, and who has jumped into Trump's assaults on DeSantis' treatment of the pandemic, was the primary lead representative to secure his state and the last to resume schools.
Newsom as of late derided DeSantis' "opportunity"- based way to deal with the pandemic as "BS," highlighting Florida's passing rate.
Florida "had 58% higher per capita passing rates under Coronavirus. That is opportunity? 58% higher per capita passing rates?" Newsom said in an April 12 meeting.
