Florida state senator faints during DeSantis presser

  1. Some bimbo just asked can you get some water? What is water gonna do for a fainting person? What are you going to throw it on her?

  2. Thank goodness she had time to say something before that happened and thankful for him catching her so delicately and with care and confidence. ❤

  3. Her sugar level or iron levels probably dropped. I work in the medical field and I saw this happen to people who are diabetic or have iron deficiency and do not know it.😐

  4. I fainted suddenly in late February 2024 in my kitchen. Didnt brace my fall at all like with my hands and arms and i had no idea I fell. Turned out with deep stabbing pain shortly there after. I broke my L3 spinal vertebrae!!!

  5. The guy catching her is Dr. Ladapo, DeSantis’ medical servant. Notice that when asked if he needs water he answers “I don’t know”. Welcome to Florida’s healthcare system. 😂😂😂

  6. She's the second Republican female politician who fainted on camera in one week 😮. The first one was Caryn Kinsey and now Ileana Garcia. Something is not right.

  7. That's Surgeon General of Florida, Joseph Lapapo. "Johnny on the spot as they say."
    This dude should be SG of California, but they ran him away because of his stance against the C- Vax.
    It appears that he's in the place he needs to be!
