Colbert to DeSantis: ‘Sure, Make United States More Like Florida... 41st in Literacy, 4th in Total STD Cases’

RUSH EXCERPT:

COLBERT: “Ron DeSantis’ main goal: make America Florida. No, uh-uh. No. We already have one! Actually two, if you count Arizona. And parts of long island. But sure, make the United States more like Florida. 41st in literacy, 4th in total std cases, and number 1 in unplanned jet-ski pregnancies. Use protection before you jet-ski. DeSantis writes with subtle literary touch about his beloved state, saying, “in a world that has increasingly gone mad, Florida is a beachhead of sanity.” “Florida is a citadel of freedom in a world gone mad,” and “Florida is a redoubt of sanity where woke ideology goes to die.” I’m gonna fact check ya there, governor. Florida is a madhouse of doubtful sanity where everyone goes to die.”
