DeSantis blasts Haley's leadership by bringing up George Floyd tweet: 'Left-wing mindset'

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis went after former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley on a local South Carolina radio show on Tuesday and questioned her "leadership" based on a tweet following the death of George Floyd in 2020.

"I remember when the George Floyd riots were happening, I called out the National Guard," DeSantis told WORD 106.9's Tara Show in South Carolina on Tuesday.

"I said I’m standing with police, she was tweeting that it needed to be personal and painful for every single person. I’m thinking to myself, ‘Why does that need to be personal and painful for you or me? We had nothing to do with it.’"

"It just shows an example of her adopting this left-wing mindset and accepting the narrative. We need leaders who are going to fight the narrative. We need leaders who are going to fight back against the left and beat the left, and I’m the only one running that has a firm track record of defeating the Democrats and defeating the left on all these issues."

DeSantis was referring to a tweet from Haley in May 2020 where she wrote, "It’s important to understand that the death of George Floyd was personal and painful for many. In order to heal, it needs to be personal and painful for everyone."

Rush Limbaugh was on Charlemagne’s show when this happened. You can look it up if you don’t believe me. The video was awful. Context is what changes the narrative.

Her tweet alone is disqualifying.

But DeSantis running at all is disqualifying.

This 2024 "race" is thoroughly depressing.

It was painful for the cop that got railroaded by a corrupt justice system that found him guilty of murder when Floyd died from drugs.
