Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is not taking calls from Vice President Kamala Harris about storm recovery just over a week after Hurricane Helene hammered parts of his state.
A source familiar with the situation said he was dodging the Democratic presidential nominee’s calls because they “seemed political,” according to a DeSantis aide.
“Kamala was trying to reach out, and we didn’t answer,” the DeSantis aide told NBC News.
The same person said “not to my knowledge” when asked if DeSantis had spoken to President Joe Biden.
TN governor did this too. Refused Biden’s efforts to stage relief crews prior to the storm, then the night the storm hits he calls the White House to ask for aid. These petulant children shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near government leadership positions
Sounds like something that demands an LBJ-style federal response.
Forcing the governors to talk to him while he’s taking a shit with the door open?
A true patriot
He would hold his junk and flop it it them to scare them into cutting red tape and get shit done.
He was a real motherfucker, but he got shit done.
Yes he was lol
Isn’t this happening? I read that Biden is sending a thousand troops to these areas to help under a federal order that bypasses these boneheaded state officials … unless I misunderstood.
He added another 500 troops this morning I believe. Anarchists in Asheville are doing a great job leading the way with mutual aid.
