#DeSantisResign Is Trending On Twitter...Again

Florida just cannot catch a break.
Contributor

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is once again trending on social media for the second time in less than a month. 

#DeSantisResign has been trending at or near the top of Florida Twitter since Sunday. It comes after the Sunshine State obliterated a record for most COVID-19 cases in a single day.

I remember when the right wanted an apology for #DeSantis because he handled the pandemic "so well."

Many are now calling on DeSantis to resign, citing his mismanagement of the coronavirus crises that are engulfing the state. 

Florida recorded 15,300 new COVID-19 cases on Sunday. It's coming in third in the nation with 269,811 cases behind California and New York.  

This is the second DeSantis hashtag to trend in just a week. #DeSantisLiesFloridiansDie was also a big hit just last week.
