Weasel of The Week; Ron DeStupid

 This is just too easy.

You've seen the headlines already, I'm sure. Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic, the top ranked player in the world, remains unvaccinated against COVID-19, and thus cannot play in tournaments here in the US.

Djokovic is reportedly scheduled to compete in the Miami Open in 2 weeks, and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is demanding that President Biden lift the vaccine mandates now, two months before those mandates expire.

Sorry, Dr. Stupid, but it's not Biden's call, nor is it really your call.

It's easy to see through DeStupid's argument. He sees Djokovic as a gate attraction, and a reason to fish for political points, as usual, in his obsessive quest to "own the libs". It would be up to the US Tennis Association and/or the World Tennis Association to petition for an exemption of some kind. You, DeStupid, are sticking your mug where it doesn't belong.

The sport of tennis does not need to be politicized here in the US just because a Trump clone misleading the state is having a Trumpian tantrum. It's not your call at all, DeStupid, but what you are getting is a set of Weasel ears. If you want to find the real source of all of Florida's problems, just look in the mirror, punk.
