It was a war of words that grabbed plenty of national attention.
President Biden, aiming to get under control the surge in new coronavirus cases due to the extremely infectious delta variant, took aim at some Republican governors who he said are “signing orders that forbid people from doing the right thing,”
“I say to these governors, please help. If you aren’t going to help, at least get out of the way of the people trying to do the right thing,” the president urged this past week.
GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida, where new COVID cases are soaring, fired back. At a news conference, he told the president “Why don’t you do your job? Why don’t you get this border secure, and until you do that, I don’t want to hear a blip about COVID from you.”
