Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) slammed Vice President Kamala Harris’ decision this week to select far-Left Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to be her running mate, saying that the two represent one of the most radical tickets in American history.
DeSantis made the remarks during a press conference and on social media after the selection was announced early on Tuesday morning.
“We all remember the BLM riots of 2020 in Minneapolis,” DeSantis said. “Those were riots that Harris egged on and raised money to bail out the rioters with Minnesota Bail Fund, and they’re riots that Tim Walz as governor sat back and let happen.

“Why would we want that for the United States of America? Where are people going to flee to?” he asked. “We can’t have everybody live in the state of Florida, I can tell you that.”
On social media, DeSantis branded the ticket “Make America Burn Again” and said that the two represented the “most left-wing ticket in American history.”
In 2021, Minnesotans were roughly five times more likely to move to Florida than vice versa.
They were fleeing a state that, under Gov. Tim Walz, turned its back on law and order, increased taxes, and imposed unscientific coronavirus restrictions, harming children and destroying…
