DeSantis Responds to Trump’s Criticism of His Covid Response: That Verdict Has Been Rendered by Floridians

‘I roll out of bed, I have people attacking me from all angles’

TRANSCRIPT:

DeSANTIS: "I roll out of bed, I have people attacking me from all angles. It’s been happening for many, many years. And if you look it, the good thing about it, though, is like, if you take a crisis situation like Covid, you know, the good thing about it is when you’re an elected executive, you have to make all kinds of decisions, you gotta steer that ship, and the good thing is, is that the people are able to render a judgment on that, whether they reelect you’re not. And I’m happy to say, you know, in my case not only did we win re-election, we won with the highest percentage of the vote that any Republican governor candidate has in the history of the state of Florida.
(Applause(
We won by the largest raw vote margin, over 1.5 million votes, than any governor candidate has ever had in Florida history. In fact, we almost double the previous record, which I think was like 780,000 vote margin. So, what I would just say is, that verdict has been rendered by the people of the state of Florida.”
