Rep. Charlie Crist, D-Florida, criticized DeSantis voters on Wednesday, and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis hit back. As Crist won the Democratic gubernatorial nomination Tuesday, he told supporters he would not seek votes from DeSantis supporters. This is despite the fact that he would literally need a miracle to win against Ron DeSantis.
At a press conference held in St. Petersburg, Florida, on Tuesday, he referred to DeSantis as “Anti-Freedom Ron,” adding that DeSantis doesn’t respect the freedom of African-Americans. Additionally, Crist said those who support the governor should stay with him and vote for him, and he does not want their vote. He also said if you have that hate in your heart, keep it there. Announcing his stance as a candidate who supports abortion rights, he called DeSantis a “bully” and “dangerous.”
DeSantis called Crist’s criticism of Florida voters “contemptible” and called Crist, a United States Representative, a “chameleon” in politics.
Crist’s political career began as a Republican, but he left it after losing the 2010 Senate primary to Marco Rubio. In a three-way race, Crist lost to Rubio as an independent. After joining the Democratic Party in 2012, Crist ran for governor in 2014 but lost to Rick Scott. Crist won a congressional election in 2016 as a Democrat.
DeSantis slammed Biden, stating he was the worst President of his lifetime. In regards to Crist, he added that we cannot let this state become a subsidiary of the Biden regime, DeSantis said. DeSantis’s campaign ads have already started basically saying that Crist would do to Florida what Biden has done to America.
According to DeSantis, Crist opposed every decision he made to keep the state open, preserve people’s rights, protect their rights, keep jobs, keep kids in school, and preserve businesses.
He is running for office for the fifth time. He’s a typical career politician, DeSantis told Tucker Carlson. DeSantis said that people support him because he keeps the state open and protects their jobs, and Charlie Crist wanted it closed down. That’s not hating in their hearts; they’re thankful to have a governor to stand up for them.
According to DeSantis, throughout the state, parents supported him because he made sure schools were open, and the state ensured that students got an education, not an indoctrination. Their hearts aren’t full of hate; they’re just grateful they have a governor who stands up for them, he repeated.
DeSantis said that Crist should not be casting stones. According to Crist, Florida should be unified. Does he want a Florida for everyone? Then you condemn most people in the state of Florida? “Give me a break,” DeSantis stated.
Ron DeSantis for president 2028…..Let Trump kick them around for the next years and then Ron can come in and do clean up. It is the proverbial one two punch.
Great idea! Chris Cristy is an absolute idiot if he thinks he stands a chance!
The overwhelming support from the huge majority of voters in Florida believe that Florida is heading in the right direction —against frightful headwinds. It is pathetic that a hard-working governor must spend his valuable time swatting at a rudderless opponent who has not made a dent in the accomplishment column during his zig zag carrier as a politician. The huge influx of new residents recently demonstrated with their feet– families and businesses– what so many Floridians know: Florida is heading in the right directions and the aware crowd is on board full steam ahead.
Charlie Crist is probably the largest MORON of my life time, I am a born and raised Floridan and am 74 years old. I have seen it all and this is the ultimate in stupidity. He needs to go crawl back under is rock and stay there. He is a JOE “BRANDON” BIDEN clone and would destroy Florida in a heartbeat !!!
Well I didn’t live in your state but you are doing one hell of job the so called president is upset that he is losing and that is the truth you are a super governor there are blowing smoke up the people’s ass just keep doing what you do best is keeping your people safe take care from SD
Don’t need and stale crust in Florida!
I know for sure he is the best governor of Florida. Please don’t run for president. I think then Florida would lean left we don’t want that I are the best of all 50 states
I meant you are the best pest Governor of all 50 states
DeSantis is bold and beautiful!
I live in Florida so Keep DeSantis in as Governor! Charlie Crist is just a ‘snake in the grass’ DEMOcrat! He’s one of those hoping for the coming of the ‘New Liberal World Order’ that Brian Deese mentioned in one of his interviews. By the way, Brian’s in the White House with Joe ‘The Dictator’ Biden.
Charlie Crist is a liar, pure and simple.
The problem is that some of the ideas from Democrats are well and good in themselves but they have absolutely no idea how to get to the solution that works for Americans. That is the difference between DeSantis and the Democrats. Governor DeSantis offers solutions to the major majority of people in his State. The Democrat solution is to literally shut every thing down without no regards for consequences of their actions. That in my opinion is sheer insantiy to look at the real facts.
Crist has been a member of all parties and he’s confused. He cannot hold a candle to Gov DeSantis and he knows it, therefore, the stupid remarks coming from his mouth.
Every so often he crawls out of wherever he is hiding and decides he should run for an office. NEVER HAPPENING IN FLORIDA We, the Floridians love our governor and will keep him for as long as he wants
Where is my comment ???
Crust should move to Russia or Venezuela. What a lying hypocrite. Crust be gone. We don’t need any more democrats. They all suck.
This New World Order is not what people want or Veteran’s fought for. The ones that do want it are the far left idiots that are living in a dream world where everything is free . I am very concerned for my Grand children and how all this so called free stuff is going to effect them as they reach adulthood. FJB and his group of Asshat Administrators .
Di Santis you are the best. I don’t live in Florida but I approve of your policies. I wish we had you in NY. Please run for President.
Ron DeSantis is an outstanding Governor and has stepped up to make the hard decision. I live in Oregon and can only dream of a Governor like Mr. DeSantis. He’s for the working individual and personal freedom.
I live in Washington state and would love to have a governor like DeSantis instead of this Marxist piece of crap.
Still waiting for my comment to post !!
Charlie Crist should be ashamed of himself, there is NOTHING more hateful than abortion. If a woman doesn’t want or can’t keep her child because of the circumstances of her life there are alternatives: 1) birth control
2) adoption. It is an extremely rare case to have abort a human life to save a life.
