Biden Breaks From Harris on DeSantis, Praises Him For Doing ‘Great Job’

President Joe Biden threw his vice president, Kamala Harris, under a bus — figuratively speaking — during a press conference on Thursday as Hurricane Milton bore down on Florida, the second major storm in as many weeks.

After Harris earlier in the week criticized Gov. Ron DeSantis for allegedly refusing her phone call, which he denied, and calling him “selfish”  and “playing political games,” Biden praised the Republican leader and said he was doing a “great job” preparing for Milton.

 

“It is selfish, and it is about political gamesmanship instead of doing the job that you took an oath to do,” Harris claimed.

DeSantis has since responded by claiming that he was unaware of Harris’s alleged attempts to reach out to him and asserting that she has never played a role in the Biden administration’s efforts to assist Florida in preparing for or recovering from storms in the past.

“She has no role in this process. I’m in contact with the President of the United States. I’m in contact with the FEMA director, I’m obviously managing all of our state agencies, we’re supporting all our local government,” he told a news conference.

“She’s the first one who’s trying to politicize the storm, and she’s doing that just because of her campaign. I don’t have time for political games. I’ve got people whose lives are on the line, I’ve got people whose homes and possessions are on the line, and we are focused 100% on that mission,” he added.

Earlier this week Biden was asked, for some reason, if DeSantis was being “cooperative” as Florida and federal agencies prepared for the monster storm.
