DeSantis rips Biden's 'blank check' to Ukraine following visit to Kyiv
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis slammed President Joe Biden during an appearance on Fox & Friends Monday morning, chiding the commander in chief's"blank check" policy on the war in Ukraine as it enters the one-year mark.
He added,"I think it would behoove them to identify what is the strategic objective that they're trying to achieve, but just saying it's an open-ended blank check, that is not acceptable."Biden made a surprise visit to Kyiv on Monday, riding 10 hours by train from the Polish border to arrive at the Ukrainian capital. In Kyiv, Biden and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky walked together on the streets as air raid sirens screamed in the background.
DeSantis claimed during his interview on Fox that the war in Ukraine might not have happened if Biden had shown more strength during his first two years in office and said the president needed to prioritize problems stateside, including the border crisis and rise in deaths due to fentanyl. "We've had millions and millions of people pour in, tens of thousands of Americans dead because of fentanyl, and then, of course, we just suffered a national humiliation of having China fly a spy balloon clear across the continental United States," he added.Rep. Scott Perry tweeted,"Breathtaking that President Biden can show up in Ukraine to ensure their border is secure, but can't do the same for America.
