Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has taken aim at the mainstream media’s coverage of Vice President Kamala Harris as she assumes the role of the presumptive Democratic Party nominee following President Biden’s decision to suspend his re-election campaign.
In an interview with Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures,” DeSantis criticized the media for what he called a “blizzard of lies” surrounding Harris. He accused the media of attempting to rewrite history and present Harris in a way that does not reflect reality.
DeSantis linked Harris to the Biden administration’s policies, stating that she owns all the policies of the current administration, including the border crisis and inflation. He expressed concern over the media’s efforts to rebrand Harris as she prepares to face off against former President Donald Trump in the upcoming election.
Despite DeSantis’ criticisms, recent polls show Harris and Trump locked in a dead heat in key swing states, with Harris gaining ground on Trump in the wake of Biden’s withdrawal from the race.
As the political landscape heats up, DeSantis warned that the battle between Harris and Trump will be fierce, with truth ultimately prevailing. The governor emphasized the importance of acknowledging the low bar set by Biden, suggesting that Harris may appear more competent in comparison.
With the 2024 election season in full swing, the clash between Harris and Trump promises to be a contentious and closely watched affair. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
