Putting the “petty” in petty tyrant
By 
DeSantis is refusing to meet with Joe Biden to visit sites ravaged by Idalia:
I’m not sure what political statement DeathSantis thinks he is making by not meeting with President Biden today. The fact is he’s an insecure, weirdly awkward little manchild, with no manners or class, and no chance at the presidency. https://t.co/eAqEnz8Dm5— Marlene Robertson (@marlene4719) September 2, 2023
For an instructive contrast, even Rick Scott, fer Chrissakes, can act like a normal human being in these circumstances:
Biden: I want to thank the Senator..
Scott: Can I just say something about what the President has done. First of all the President did a great a job… pic.twitter.com/JxILfvXkQl— Acyn (@Acyn) September 2, 2023
Even more important than personal pettiness, however, is DeSantis turning down federal funds that would have to mitigate future disasters:
The federal gov't is offering Florida hundreds of millions of dollars to make buildings more energy efficient, boost rooftop solar, increase climate resilience, and reduce consumer energy prices. DeSantis has rejected it. https://t.co/VACidSGZqm— David Roberts (@drvolts) August 30, 2023
This guy really is a shithead in full.
