In an interview this week, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis issued a warning: if the United States elects a “San Francisco Democrat”—such as Vice President Kamala Harris—to lead the country as president, she will destroy it in the same manner that other San Francisco Democrats have destroyed California and the city of San Francisco.
When asked how long he believes Harris’ media honeymoon—during which they continue to promote her while disregarding her appalling track record as a governor—DeSantis made these comments during a Monday night appearance on Newsmax.
“This is all the way until the election, assuming she gets the nomination at the convention, which it looks more and more likely that she will. I’ve said that they were going to remove Biden. They did. And I also said if Kamala face-planted, that they would try to do plan B. I think that she’s been able to coalesce a lot of support. She’s raising a lot of money. And so, I think the media has come to the conclusion she’s going to be the candidate.” DeSantis said.
“And so, they are going to do whatever they can to drag her across the finish line. I mean, they’re taking a San Francisco Democrat who has no accomplishments — she’s as vapid a politician [as] you’re going to find — and they’re trying to turn her into a cultural phenomenon. They’re trying to make fetch happen,” he added.

According to DeSantis, the majority of Americans are “too smart” to be duped by the media’s efforts to recast Harris.
“At the end of the day, Harris is a leftist San Francisco Democrat. San Francisco Democrats have destroyed the city of San Francisco; San Francisco Democrats have also destroyed the state of California. Why on earth would we want to have a San Francisco Democrat in the Oval Office to dig our country even into a deeper hole than Biden is already leaving us?” DeSantis concluded.
