DeSantis Campaign Press Release - Ron DeSantis: "I am sick of Republicans who are not willing to stand up and fight back against what the left is doing to this country."
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – During the Fourth Republican Presidential Primary Debate, Ron DeSantis said:
"So we have a great idea in America that the voters actually make these decisions, not pundits or pollsters. I'm sick of hearing about these polls, because I remember those polls in November of 2022. They said there was going to be a big red wave -It was going to be monumental, and that crashed and burned. The one place that didn't crash and burn was in the state of Florida. They weren't predicting that I would win the way I did, and I won the greatest Republican victory in the history of the state of Florida. I'm looking forward to Iowa and New Hampshire. The voters are going to be able to speak and we're going to earn this nomination. And here's what we need. I am sick of Republicans who are not willing to stand up and fight back against what the left is doing to this country. You've got to be willing to stand strong, and you've got to be willing to beat these people. I'm the only one running for president that has beaten these people on issue after issue. We beat the teachers unions when we did school choice. We beat Fauci on COVID. We beat George Soros - What we need for this country - And you have other candidates up here like Nikki Haley. She caves anytime the left comes after her, anytime the media comes after I did a bill in Florida to stop the gender mutilation of minors. It's child abuse, and it's wrong. She opposes that bill. She thinks it's fine, and the law shouldn't get involved with it. If you're not willing to stand up for the kids - If you're not willing to stand up and say that it is wrong to mutilate these kids, then you're not going to fight for the people back home. I will fight for you and I will win for you."
