Ron DeSantis is obviously rooting for the trucker convoy to purpose violence and chaos at Biden’s State Of The Union. DeSantis’s refusal to ship the state’s Nationwide Guard to give protection to the Capitol is borderline prison.
The occasions of one/6 are nonetheless contemporary within the minds of all, however as a substitute of doing his section to stay the Capitol secure, Ron DeSantis is making an attempt to play 2024 Republican number one presidential politics.
