Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) said Monday that it was “delusional” for Vice President Harris to accuse him of “political gamesmanship” after reports emerged that he did not take the Democratic presidential nominee’s calls as his state braces for Hurricane Milton.
DeSantis said in a Fox News interview Monday evening that he is “leveraging all resources available, including from the federal government” to prepare for Hurricane Milton’s expected landfall Wednesday evening, adding that he has been in touch with both President Biden and Federal Emergency Management Agency officials in preparation.
“And so for Kamala Harris to try to say that my sole focus on the people of Florida is somehow selfish, is delusional,” DeSantis said.
“She has no role in this. In fact, she’s been vice president for three and a half years. I’ve dealt with a number of storms under this administration. She has never contributed anything to any of these efforts, and so what I think is selfish is her trying to blunder into this,” he continued.

Harris really looks like an amateur.
He nailed her. She’s fooling no one.
Oh that burns. :-)
Oh, I hear tell she’s a ‘pro’. No first hand knowledge. And, I don’t want any. 😳
“Harris taking a page from Obama’s playbook on Hurricane Sandy, trying to make herself relevant and look presidential during a crisis.”
Exactly.
You just know that she had a campaign photographer standing near here, just waiting for DeSantis to pick up the phone. Then she can look Presidential, concerned, determined and able to lead in an emergency.
Other Freepers have posted it - but it is worth repeating. She’s really not in the chain of authority here. DeSantis should be speaking solely with Biden, NOAA, Homeland Security and FEMA.
Governor Desantis doesn’t have time for her bullshit.....she’s not even in the chain of command when it comes to federal emergency support so why should he bother .....they’re in a snit because he won’t give her a campaign photo op......which is what this is REALLY about.
< snicker >
Willie nailed her, too.
Just in a different way.
DeSantis rocks!
He’s how governing a state should be done.
Sure will be nice when she is sent back to Kalifornia back to her old gig of personal service job.
Harris wants to “help”? DeSantis should tell her he sees how she helped in North Carolina and he does not want any of that BS.
Yea Ron. It’s time someone spoke the truth to these people, especially her.
The MSM is still running with the “DeSantis is refusing to talk to Harris” line.
Yep- bish has done NOTHING for the victims of the hurricane in Asheville and the surrounding areas.
She keeps wanting to have it both ways...
Either SHE is in charge, SHE is the Prez. And therefore OWNS all of Biden / Harris baggage.
OR, she is a fresh face offering “a new way forward, etc, etc”
Can’t be both.
Perfect analogy
Harris wants to parachute in to a situation where she has never been in the chain of command before.
(stamping her high heeled tiny feet)
Where are the people? They should be following me! And listening to me! I AM THEIR LEADER!!!!!!!
Good on him!
