Ron DeSantis Lays Waste to Gavin Newsom's Laughably Dishonest Attacks –

 RedState

Republicans love a fighter, and DeSantis has not been one to back down.

"Ron DeSantis is continuing to respond to Gavin Newsom’s farcical criticisms of the Florida governor, laying waste to the arguments that have been made.

"As RedState reported previously, Newsom has been in a mostly one-sided feud with DeSantis, lashing out with an ad campaign targeting the Sunshine State and its governor, touting California as the true bastion of “freedom.” Further, while visiting the White House (while Joe Biden was out of town) for reasons completely unknown, Newsom again slammed DeSantis, calling him a bully and shouting for him to “stop.”. . .

. . ."While Newsom speaks in false generalities about Florida (no, the state has not banned saying the word gay or banned books), DeSantis has real-world examples on his side. California has been a case study in how to not run a state for nearly two decades. Homelessness is out of control, taxes are sky-high, the population is decreasing, and the public infrastructure, from energy to water, has been woefully mismanaged, causing constant shortages.

"Then there’s COVID-19 where Newsom still refuses to relinquish his emergency powers that helped usher in years of widespread lockdowns and ineffective mandates. There is no real freedom in California because everything is controlled by the dictates of the state government. Florida stands in stark contrast, consistently prioritizing the individual rights of its residents, not bending the knee to politicized corporations or partisan officials.

"DeSantis’ fight with the bureaucracy that controls the Special Olympics was simply an extension of that commitment. Children wanted to compete who otherwise wouldn’t have been allowed to. DeSantis made sure they were allowed to. That Newsom chose that as an attack line is quite the strategic blunder.". . .
