DeSantis Calls Harris 'Delusional' Amid Clash Over Hurricane Milton Response as Storm Targets Pinellas
Oct 8, 2024, 02:28 AM
Amid the approach of Category 5 Hurricane Milton towards Pinellas County, Florida, Vice President Kamala Harris has criticized Governor Ron DeSantis for allegedly ignoring her calls and playing political games. Harris stated that moments of crisis should be when leaders set aside politics to put people first, calling DeSantis's actions 'utterly irresponsible' and 'selfish.' In response, Governor DeSantis has dismissed Harris's claims as 'delusional,' stating that she has 'no role in this process' and accusing her of politicizing the storm. He emphasized that he is in contact with the President and focused on protecting the people of Florida, noting that he has worked well with both President Trump and President Biden during previous storms. DeSantis added that Harris has been Vice President for 3.5 years and 'never contributed anything' to storm efforts, and stated, 'I don't have time for political games' and that 'she's the first one who has tried to politicize a storm.'
