As is the Florida Governor’s preference, he took to Fox News Monday night to tell the rest of the story regarding his disconnect with “delusional” Kamala Harris.
Harris tried to call Ron DeSantis Monday to check in ahead of Hurricane Milton, and the Governor’s staff told media outlets the call was ignored because it was deemed “political,” before DeSantis himself told reporters at a press conference that he simply didn’t know Harris called.
But even as the Governor prepares for the worst storm perhaps in Florida history, he had time for friendly media interactions to offer an unchallenged narrative.
“Look in the mirror,” he advised during a Tuesday “Fox and Friends” hit. “It’s not about you, Kamala. It’s about the people of Florida.”
DeSantis says “politics” are why she’s “trying to parachute in and inject herself,” noting the vice president isn’t “in the chain of command.”
During an interview with Sean Hannity, DeSantis took issue with the Vice President’s claim that the Florida Governor was playing “political games” and being “selfish” in not talking to her.
“She has no role in this process,” DeSantis said, saying the VP has “never contributed anything” to storm recovery efforts.
DeSantis noted he is in “contact” with President Joe Biden, who he avoided recently when the President was surveying storm damage in Florida but talked to Monday evening by phone, as well as FEMA Director Deanne Criswell.
“I’ve had storms under both President Trump and President Biden and I’ve worked well with both of them,” DeSantis continued. “She’s the first one who is trying to politicize the storm, and she’s doing that just because of her campaign. She’s trying to get a political edge. She knows she’s doing poorly.”
DeSantis said he didn’t want to play “selfish” Harris’ “political games.”

Interesting . Ronnie doesn’t have time to play “political games”with Harris as he calls them but he does have time to go on faux news and attack her?? At least he’s good at time management.

Oh please. This guy politicizes everything he touches. He lacks the basic decency to do what every other governor has always done when the president – or the vice president – comes to your state during a declared disaster. Ron’s petty vindictiveness is divisive and insulting to the people of Florida who deserve a leader who can rise above childish tantrums when circumstances call for unity.
How do you explain this behavior to your kids? Some civics lesson.

Once again DeSantis is absolutely correct. Kammy trying to score some political points with a worthless phone call. Who’s next, known geographer Hank Johnson or Nancy Pelosi? Do the job Ja Biden assigned you to and fix the Southern Border.

On a side note, after seeing another serving of word salad by Kammy on her 60 minute interview it occurred to me she speaks the same language as a poster here, Yrral. I believe he has a few

A big thanks to California Governor Gavin Newsom for sending much needed help to Florida in our time of need. Don’t ask for permission, just do what’s necessitated by DeSantis’ incompetence.

Stop it. Governor DeSantis sent California assistance when they needed. Governor Newsome is simply reciprocating, just as Governor DeSantis has for the people of North Carolina and Tennessee under Operation Blue Ridge. Shame on you.

My husband and I watched Governor DeSantis’ news conference yesterday, in which he publicly thanked President Biden, adding that he had spoken with President Biden. I’ve read a reported White House statement confirming that President Biden had spoken with both the mayor of Tampa and Governor DeSantis.

Governor DeSantis is spot on yet again by disabusing the so-called journalists of their false narratives and their touted sense of false equivalencies. Governor DeSantis has publicly thanked President, and the White House has confirmed that President Biden has spoken with both the mayor of Tampa and Governor DeSantis. Again, our Governor is spot on; and we can see the corporate media for what it is, gaslighting the American people.

Peachy isn’t in his right mind, so to speak. On the one hand, he/she/they wants to know why KH didn’t implement her agenda while VP. On the other hand, he swears she can’t do anything.
Another step towards an intervention — if Peachy had any real friends to intervene. Most seem to be imaginary, such as the “lots of women friends” who will allegedly vote against their best interests in Nov.

Geeze, JD kept referring to the “Harris Administration” during the VP debate as if. Rona and JD need to huddle with the Orange Turd and figure out what the party line is. Same for Rona and his staff – did Harris call or not? Frickin clown GOP sure can spoil a good hurricane party. Shine up your pretty white rubber boots Rona cuz Nature Bats Last and all those Yankees that you lured to move to the coast and in wetlands are going to get smacked. Too bad the insurance crisis is going to mushroom on your watch, eh?
