Gov. Ron DeSantis appears to be stepping up his criticism of 2024 Republican rival Donald Trump for what he charges was the former president's failure to deliver on campaign promises.
who's seen Trump's double-digit lead over him expand in the two months since the conservative governor from Florida launched his GOP presidential nomination campaign, says he won't match Trump insult for insult by taking part in"name-calling" on the campaign trail.
DeSantis is aiming to rebound and change the narrative in the wake of staffing layoffs by his campaign last week in a move by top officials to"streamline" the governor'sIn his Fox News interview, in a gaggle with reporters, and taking questions from the crowd as he headlined the latest edition of former Republican Sen. Scott Brown's No BS Backyard BBQ series with the GOP presidential contenders, DeSantis charged that Trump didn't get"the job done.
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung, responding, charged in a statement to Fox News that"Ron DeSantis is nothing more than an off-brand, bootleg version of America First. No mater how much time he spends cosplaying as President Trump, he will never be him or achieve a hundredth of what was achieved during the Trump Administration. Ron DeSantis should pack his knapsack and hitchhike his way back home to focus on the serious issues facing the great state of Florida.
The governor reiterated that he thinks Trump's"name-calling and stuff – I think is juvenile. It’s not something I’m going to be involved in. I’m a guy about substance."
