After a month of updating Floridians on hurricanes, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis is now focusing his official office on fighting an abortion rights amendment, holding a campaign-like rally at state expense two weeks before the election.

DeSantis’ event Monday, which was capped with a prayer from the archbishop of Miami and the lieutenant governor asking people to not vote like atheists, came after the Department of Health’s top lawyer resigned over a letter he said the governor’s office forced him to send to television stations in an effort to stop a pro-Amendment 4 ad.

I will never understand how a doctor is against abortion rights.

A doctor is in a prime position to understand that many times symptoms of one patient can be disease /problem /ailment X and in the next patient it can be disease /problem /ailment y.

A doctor has the training to understand that many times what they are doing is just educated guess work. So how are they going to have a definitive line of when a pregnant lady is at risk during pregnancy and know exactly when an abortion is needed?

It's like they actually failed in college at understanding how their job even works, but somehow passed because they got enough points in other areas.

Same way the physician governor of Hawaii declared Joe Biden mentally fit. They lie for reasons that benefit themselves.
