A frustrated Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis lashed out at Vice President Kamala Harris this week after she criticized his handling of hurricanes Helene and Milton while also claiming he refused to take her phone call.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, DeSantis spoke to CNBC\u2019s Andrew Ross Sorkin about the situation, during which he ripped Harris for what he perceived as a blatant attempt to politicize the storms and boost her campaign.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t even know she was trying to reach me, but she has no role in this process, and I\u2019ve been dealing with these storms in Florida under both Trump and Biden. Neither of them ever politicized it,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd, in fact, all the storms I\u2019ve dealt with under this administration \u2013 although I\u2019ve worked well with [President Biden] \u2013 she has never called in Florida. She has never offered any support.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, what she\u2019s doing is she\u2019s trying to inject herself into this because of her political campaign,\u201d he continued, noting he\u2019s busy trying to save lives. \u201cI don\u2019t have time for those games.\u201d<\/p>\n
