November 30, 2023

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – During his debate against Gavin Newsom on Fox News, Ron DeSantis said:

"When I was in the Navy, I got orders to go to Naval amphibious base Coronado in Southern California. And I was a lifelong Floridian but I went there and I was like, Man, this is one of the most beautiful places on earth. And I think California has more natural advantages than any state in the country. You almost have to try to mess California up. Yeah, that's what Gavin Newsom has done. Since he's been governor. He's the first governor to ever lose population. They actually at one point, ran out of U hauls in the state of California because so many people were leaving, of course, he's imposed restrictions on his own people, while exempting himself from those restrictions and going to the French Laundry, while his people were suffering. He led the country in school closures locking kids out of school while he had his own kids in private school in person now he's very good at spinning these, these tails. He's good at being slick and slippery hills, he'll tell a blizzard of lies to be able to try to mask the failures. But the reality is they have failed because of his leftist ideology. And the choice for America is this. What Biden and Harris and Newsom want to do is take the California model and do that nationally. In Florida we showed that conservative principles work this country must choose freedom over failure."
