Scarborough Mocks DeSantis: Andrew Gillum Will Face Off Against ‘Trump-Obsessed’ Ron DeSantis in Fla. Gov. Race

‘Gillum faces off against the Republican Party’s nominee, Trump-backed, Trump-obsessed, going-to-put-my-baby-in-a-Trump-t-shirt congressman Ron DeSantis’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: “Why don't we start with yesterday’s important news out of Florida and Arizona where they, of course, held their primary races? In Florida, Tallahassee mayor Andrew Gillum narrowly won the state’s Democratic nomination for governor and one of the most significant upsets of the primary season. And I can tell you, what an upset that was. I saw commercial after commercial after commercial for all the other candidates. But — but he actually becomes the first black major party candidate for governor in the state’s history, in Florida history. Gillum is going to be facing off against the Republican Party’s nominee, Trump-backed, Trump-obsessed, going-to-put-my-baby-in-a-Trump-T-shirt congressman Ron DeSantis. Think about how that’s going to set up. Why don't we stop there for a second? Steve Kornacki, what an upset this was. Again, if you were down in Florida, I was down in Florida and saw ads for a couple of weeks and, boy, you didn’t see his ads. You saw ads from everybody else. How did this happen? Where did he come from? And let’s just talk about the battle lines that have been drawn in two Deep South states where I’ve lived. Georgia and Florida, in both states you have black Democrats, Medicare-for-all, Progressive candidates going against hard-core, right wing Trumpistas, all the way in for Donald Trump."
