Ron DeSantis (R) on Tuesday blasted the mask hypocrisy of the elites, concluding that they are almost creating a \u201ctwo-tiered society\u201d with a \u201cservant class that has to always do all this, but yet the other class, they can lecture you about wearing masks, but then they don\u2019t wear masks themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Florida Republican, who never once implemented a statewide mask mandate across the Sunshine State, took a shot at elites who often forgo a mask yet continue to press the general public to wear one.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWhat I see is, you\u2019ll see entertainment venues, top hotels, they\u2019ll be big events. You\u2019ll have like a charity event and there will be like 500 people eating, drinking, having a good time, which I support 100 percent, no masks or anything. Great,\u201d DeSantis began. But, he asked,&nbsp;concluding that the elites are attempting to create a \u201ctwo-tiered\u201d society where rules apply to everyone but themselves:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"8\">\n<p>But they make the staff all wear masks. And I\u2019m just thinking to myself, hold on. You\u2019re in a packed ballroom with 500 people and they\u2019re not wearing masks \u2014 and first of all they shouldn\u2019t be \u2014 that\u2019s fine. But is it really going to make a difference to have 15 waiters wearing masks?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cAnd I think it\u2019s like a two-tiered society. They\u2019re trying to have a servant class that has to always do all this, but yet the other class, they can lecture you about wearing masks, but then they don\u2019t wear masks themselves. That\u2019s wrong,\u201d he said to applause. \u201cThat\u2019s wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis reminded the press that there are no requirements in Florida mandating any workers wear masks and that all instances of such are done by private businesses.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cAnd I think the reason private business does it is because \u2026. they know if they have the servers without it, they may get that one customer who\u2019s so upset and will complain and they don\u2019t want to deal with that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I think it\u2019s time we stop letting them, one person, veto what\u2019s right,\u201d he continued, noting that Florida has \u201cnever arguably done better in hospitality than we\u2019ve been doing lately because people know they come to Florida to vacation [and] they\u2019re going to be treated with respect and [as] free people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re not going to have to show medical papers to get a beer. They\u2019re not going to have to do that to go get lunch,\u201d he said, urging leaders in private industry to \u201clet your employees, let these folks breathe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet them make their own decisions on this, because I think it\u2019s terribly uncomfortable that they\u2019re in this for so many hours a day, and I don\u2019t think it\u2019s been proven to make a difference,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I certainly think if you have 500 people in a ballroom, to force a handful [of] the service staff to have to do that, that\u2019s not based in science. That\u2019s just more for show,\u201d he added, once again knocking the elites and their mask hypocrisy, which has been on full display throughout the pandemic \u2014 from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/09\/20\/san-francisco-mayor-maskless-night-out\/\">San Francisco Mayor London Breed (D)<\/a>&nbsp;to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/07\/31\/nancy-pelosi-maskless-masks-capitol\/\">House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)<\/a> to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/11\/28\/joe-biden-caught-maskless-inside-nantucket-store-with-required-face-covering-sign-hanging-on-door\/\">President Biden<\/a> himself.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, Oregon Gov. Kate Brown (D), who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/08\/25\/oregon-gov-kate-brown-mandates-masks-outside-its-a-necessary-measure\/\">implemented<\/a> an outdoor mask mandate in her state from August to November, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/12\/07\/democrat-oregon-gov-kate-brown-spotted-maskless-as-health-officials-draft-more-permanent-mask-rules\/\">attended<\/a> a gala in Washington, DC, where she was spotted without a mask. Meanwhile, Oregon health officials are looking to establish a more&nbsp;\u201cpermanent set\u201d of rules for masking.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel bad for the employees, and I think it\u2019s wrong that somehow, you know, to look down on somebody or act like they should have to abide by different rules than me or you or any anybody else,\u201d DeSantis added, expressing hope that \u201cWe can all move forward where everybody has the ability to exercise those free choices.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Florida Gov.
