Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is dodging calls from Vice President Kamala Harris about Hurricane Milton, sources close to the governor told multiple news outlets.
“Kamala was trying to reach out, and we didn’t answer,” an anonymous DeSantis aide told NBC News on Monday. A source close to the governor also confirmed the same to ABC News hours later.
The anonymous DeSantis aide said the governor declined to take Harris’ calls because they “seemed political.” They were unsure if DeSantis had been in communication with President Joe Biden.
Harris offered harsh words for the governor after reporters asked her about the evaded calls at Joint Base Andrews on Monday. “It’s just utterly irresponsible, and it is selfish, and it is about political gamesmanship instead of doing the job that you took an oath to do.”
Milton is projected to make landfall on Florida’s Gulf Coast by Wednesday. It has rapidly intensified over the last 24 hours from Category 1 to a now Category 5 storm—sustaining wind speeds over 157 miles per hour. Milton’s maximum wind speeds are currently 180 miles per hour, according to the most recent update from the National Hurricane Center.

Guv DeSantis wants nothing to do with this clown. She is useless and 100% actress who memorizes lines.
Maybe Governor DeSantis was waiting for a phone call from the actual President?
DeSantis is very aware she’s only doing this for political purposes.
Come man, she was going to tell him about how the neighbors were proud of their green lawns!
Are these sources reliably loyal to DeSantis and DJT?
.
Sound like some moles need to be wacked
man i hope he takes NY- that woudl be awesome- I doubt he will, but would be awesome-
How is a phone call from her value added?
I’m sure Desantis had more important things to do since she has nothing to offer.
“An anonymous DeSantis aide”: Sure.
He doesn’t have any coke Kamala
Stop Jonesin’
Ron don’t need no girlie word salad from you, poser.
Except DeSantis says he did not know she was calling. But let’s be real. DeSantis is preparing for a cat 5 hurricane. He doesn’t need to waste his time talking to Harris.
Doesn’t she understand there is a hurricane coming and he’s busy?
I am less interested in the solid blue states he might (but won’t!) take than the borderline red states that may (and probably will) be stolen once again.
She’s the vice president and has nothing to do with this but she wants to pretend like she gives two sh*ts about Florida since her campaign is in the toilet. Desantis already told her off in Hannitys show he said he talked to Biden today he’s never talked to the VP about anything she has nothing to do with this and he has no time for her nonsense
Oooh, Kamala having a hissy fit. Stomp, stomp.
I check out polymarket every day for Trump vs Kamala

For about 25 days Kamala had been leading by a point or two. It was nerve racking. Three days ago Trump started rising. Now today he is leading by 7%
Well what, exactly, were you going to offer him Camala?
Your FEMA DEI hires are screwing it up by the numbers.
Why would he want to talk to you? He's busy - leave him alone!
