    >An aide to the Florida governor said Harris’ call “seemed political” and that she “was trying to reach out, and we didn’t answer.”

    It’s only political if, like MTG, you believe that the hurricane was created by Democrats. There’s a lot of grandstanding any candidate can do during a disaster. Especially if that candidate [*isn’t in office*](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/09/30/23/90289533-13909271-Franklin_Graham_President_of_Samaritan_s_Purse_says_a_prayer_as_-a-3_1727734990103.jpg). VP Harris wants Florida votes, to be sure. But, like many rational politicians, she also wants to help people because they’re people. If I had people in my state in need, I’d take the call.

    He’s busy shining up his white boots for another photo shoot.

    ronnie will nevertheless get on his spindly knees begging for aid after the next hurricane while in the next breath disparaging the hands that feed him. Here’s an idea, why don’t we get all the bullies and babies out of office?

  6. What an absolute child. Grow up and do your job by trying to protect the lives and wellbeing of your constituents

    Maybe he’s waiting for Trump to fix the hurricane path with a Sharpie

  8. I genuinely feel terrible for anyone falling victim to these hurricanes but especially the Floridians who knows what a piece of shit climate change white boots Ron DeFascist is and are stuck with him as their governor. He and the talking heads love to make everything a red v blue issue and in cases like this or COVID or others that deny science it is going to get people killed

  9. Hear that Florida. You’re about to be hit with a category 5 hurricane that will be felt in some form across the entire state……and your Republican governor is refusing to take calls from the one person in federal gov’t who can direct FEMA aid directly to you. And why? She’s a Democrat.

    You good with that?

    Right Repubs?

    You know the last hurricane that went up your way caused 250 deaths….perhaps with this thing facing you down right now, you Repubs don’t care, huh.

    This is one of many reasons why MAGAs are dangerous and must be stopped. Ron is putting party before country. People will die, all in the name of MAGAs and hurting Kamala chances to win the election.

  11. If I was the governor of the state of Florida, and someone was calling me trying to help,and give me money, I would take the call. For my fellow Floridians.

    So the article says that DeSantis has not spoken to VP Harris or President Biden. He was invited to President Biden’s touring of north Florida and the press conference but he insisted on having a press conference at some other part of the state. When called by President Biden, he claimed he was flying and could not talk the call. Really, Ron? However his office said that he has been talking with the FEMA director. Perhaps the next call he makes to the FEMA director, the director can conference in with Biden and Harris.

  13. It’s going to be funny if in 2025 during a joint appearance with President Harris following a Florida natural disaster, Governor DeSantis is outshined by President Harris looking better in the same rain boots.

    Dear Ron,

    Why don’t you take a flight to Cancun with Ted Cruz? Florida might fare better if you are not there.

  15. When will these people realise they are running a country and not 24/7 repping like a football team fanbase?

    I am so sick of him.

    -signed a Floridian who never ever voted for him

    Bet you after the hurricane hits, he’ll complain that Kamala and her team didn’t reach out.

    I was just told in a discord channel not to bring politics into it.

    Fine. I can respect that.

    This is people’s lives DeSantis is being cavalier with. He’s refusing to work with the current administration in efforts to look tough on the other party.

    You can disagree with the other party yet work together when lives are on the line. What is with this MAGA brainwashing?

  19. Floridians who voted for this slimey sack of shit, get what they deserve. It’s really unfortunate for those that did not to be lumped in. They would rather find some inconceivable way of placing the blame on Democrats, instead of helping ANYONE at all.

    Edit: Sorry, they do help someone. That someone is THEMSELVES.

    Democrats should place a billboard in Florida that reads “we have been trying to reach DeSantis so we can provide assistance to Floridians but he’s ghosting us. Tell him to call us back “

  21. LindeeHilltop on

    Harris should make the call and film it for a campaign ad that runs solely in Florida. It ends with her hanging up and looking directly at the camera saying, “Tell DeSantis you *do want and need federal government aid. That we are all in this together.*”
