Uhlfelder\u2019s PAC released the attack ad, called the \u201cFlorever Purge,\u201d attacking DeSantis for trusting \u201cpeople to make their own decisions\u201d regarding vaccines and COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>The ad, based on the movie \u201cThe Purge,\u201d opens with a crowd of people flying to Florida on a commercial airplane, watching a warning video of DeSantis condemning \u201cvaccine passports\u201d and promoting individual responsibility.&nbsp; The ad ends with a series of pandemic-related news clips hyping the spread of COVID-19.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"5.6060606060606\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">New ad: The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FloreverPurge?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FloreverPurge<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Retweet to defeat Ron DeathSantis <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/AyaHQ77fqs\">pic.twitter.com\/AyaHQ77fqs<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Remove Ron (@RemoveRon) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RemoveRon\/status\/1443219478096003072?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 29, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThis reminds me of my recent flight back from CA to FL, and my complete and utter relief at being in a state where the governor says things like \u2018We trust people to make their own decisions in this state.\u2019 Honestly, did Ron DeSantis write this commercial?\u201d Daily Wire editor emeritus Ben Shapiro, who resides in Florida, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/benshapiro\/status\/1443578372731195400\">wrote<\/a> on Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlso, \u2018The Florever Purge\u2019? This is so bad the Lincoln Project must be in some way connected to it,\u201d Shapiro mocked. \u201cBut I do hope that covid-panicked already-vaxxed blue state Democrats watch this video and stay the hell out and leave us alone. So it\u2019s a win for everybody!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI need this recut so that the cutaways to Florida are of people eating at restaurants, going to the beach, and attending sports games. Because that\u2019s the reality out here. We\u2019re living life normally,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>National Review senior writer Charles Cooke, another Florida resident, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/charlescwcooke\/status\/1443541524403396608\">called<\/a> the ad \u201cone of the funniest things I\u2019ve ever seen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe best part is when they amp up the scary music while DeSantis says, \u2018We trust people to make their own decisions in this state, we\u2019re not going to be bludgeoning people,\u2019\u201d Cooke said. \u201cThe plane lands, and then the screen flashes \u2018terrifyingly evil,\u2019 by which point in real life everyone on board would have alighted and been on their merry way to Universal Studios.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd the juxtapositions are delicious. DeSantis says \u2018if you\u2019re trying to lock people down, I\u2019m going to stand in your way.\u2019 And the screen flashes \u2018A DARK DYSTOPIAN STORY,\u2019\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI like DeSantis even more now.
