DeSantis Campaign Sees an Opening to Contrast Governor's Leadership With D.C. Chaos

On Thursday, the DeSantis War Room posted  video that began with highlighting the headlines and commentary that have come since Tuesday's ouster, including how "the Republican Party today just can't govern" and "has become the party that lacks discipline."

Included in the video is a warning from DeSantis himself, who warned while speaking to Fox News' Neil Cavuto that he's seen "a lack of leadership" as well as "a lot of political theater and performative stuff where people are fundraising or whatnot," in response to some of the eight Republican members having done just that.

The video also includes footage from DeSantis' performance during last week's second RNC debate in which he declared "I watch these guys in Washington D.C., and they don’t care about the American people. They don’t care about the fentanyl deaths. They don’t care about the communities being overrun because of this border. They don’t care about the Mexican drug cartels." Read more, see X and video here.
