Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis is taking the fight to former President Donald Trump, calling out the polling leader's refusal to debate as an indication Trump cannot beat President Joe Biden.
"He's not showing up: He's missing in action," DeSantis told HBO's "Real Time With Bill Maher" on Friday night. "He owes it to voters to show up and defend his record. And I think he thinks he can take a juiced [up] poll, and then people don't get to vote. That's not the way the system works.DeSantis is calling out Trump to a debate, like he has California Democratic Gov.
"For example: COVID. I think we need accountability for what this government did to this country with the COVID restrictions, mandates, and lockdowns. Donald Trump is not going to do that. He says he did everything right. He says he saved millions of lives with lockdowns. He claims his MNRA shot saved 100 million lives."
DeSantis repeated his campaign mantra that Florida has done it right on COVID-19, despite negative spin from critics, saying people have voted on that with their feet and moved to the state en masse. "People are coming; wealth's moving into the state; our economy's done better than any other large state. And education, we're now ranked, I think, in the top five on most metrics in education.
