Florida Governor Ron DeSantis recently made strong remarks criticizing Vice President Kamala Harris, labeling her as a 'lousy candidate' for president. DeSantis claimed that Harris is more liberal than President Biden on various issues, citing her past stances on eliminating private insurance, oil and gas, providing benefits to illegal aliens, and gun control.
DeSantis expressed his disapproval of Harris' performance as the 'border czar,' stating that her tenure as Vice President has been 'disastrous.' He accused the media of downplaying her failures, particularly in handling the border situation, which he described as one of the top failures of the Biden-Harris administration.
During a press conference in Florida, DeSantis highlighted Harris' previous statements supporting an open border and taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal aliens. He emphasized that Harris is even more liberal than President Biden on these issues.
The Governor also questioned the potential impact of Harris' running mate in the upcoming election, expressing skepticism that the choice would significantly influence the outcome.
DeSantis' criticism of Harris reflects ongoing political tensions and differing perspectives within the Democratic Party. As the 2024 presidential election approaches, debates over candidates' ideologies and policy positions are likely to intensify.
