DeSantis Rips Trump: ‘When You Are Saying Cuomo Did Better than Florida on Covid, [You] Are Full of It’

‘He was praising Florida for being open’

EXCERPT:

DESANTIS: “So what I would say is this. When you are saying that Cuomo did better on Covid than Florida did, you are revealing yourself to just be full of it. Nobody believes that. And you know why? (Applause) And you know why I know that? because I remember in 2020 and 2021, when he was praising Florida for being open, saying, we did it much better than New York and Michigan, and everyone was coming to Florida, and that we were one of the great governors in the United States. And he used to say that all the time. Now all of a sudden, his tune is changing. And I would just tell people, do you find it credible? Do you honestly find it credible? Would you have rather been in New York during Covid under Cuomo regime, or would you rather have been in the free state of Florida? And I probably can count the number of Republicans on my hand in the nation, who would have rather been under Cuomo in New York. And we know that. And so these are just frivolous criticisms. But in some respects, I think it shows that, you know, if you have to make that argument, then you probably don't have very good arguments.”
