Ron DeSantis went on Fox and rattled off a list of all of Donald Trump's broken promises including draining the swamp and building the wall.

Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis is gearing up for his fight with former Republican President Donald Trump over the GOP's 2024 presidential nomination.

To that end, DeSantis went on the attack against Trump on his former favorite network, Fox News.


On Sunday’s MediaBuzz, Fox host Howard Kurtz pointed out former New Jersey GOP Governor Chris Christie centered his campaign on attacking Trump.

Kurtz told DeSantis:

"Chris Christie, who was on this program a couple of weeks ago, says he’s the only one who goes directly at Trump insult for insult—calling him a coward and so forth."
“And that the rest of you just dance around for fear of offending him or his supporters."

Kurtz asked:

"Does he have a point?"

DeSantis responded:

"I don’t do insults."
“So that is true. I think just getting in this insult game turns voters off."

The controversial Florida governor added:

"Substantively, we've been very frank about our differences with respect to the former President."

DeSantis then listed Trump's failures, from his perspective.

"I mean, for example, he promised to drain the swamp – it got worse. He did not drain the swamp.
"He promised to have Mexico pay for a border wall. They did like 50 miles of wall. There's massive expanses still there."
"He said he was going to eliminate the national debt. They added almost $8 trillion to the debt in four years."
"And of course, in 2020, he turned the country over to Dr. Fauci, and those lockdowns and the borrowing and printing really set us on a bad course."
"I've been very, very frank at that."

Fox viewers were less than enthusiastic about DeSantis.





DeSantis—who continues to trail behind Trump in polls—stated:

"I have no interest in attacking Donald Trump or any of these other candidates personally."
"I think we’ve got to rise above that and let's focus on the issues."

Given insults and name-calling—no matter how childish—feature prominently in every statement the GOP frontrunner makes, DeSantis' strategy may not resonate with Republican voters.

GOP Senator Faces MAGA Backlash Over Plan To Sell Millions Of Acres Of Public Land

Utah Republican Senator Mike Lee is facing harsh criticism—including from Team MAGA—over his proposal to sell off millions of acres of public land in the American West owned by the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service to supposedly create more affordable housing.

Lee claimed in his proposal that there is an "extensive process for interested parties like States and local governments to nominate land for disposal to meet housing and community needs," noting that it specifically exempts national parks, monuments, and federally designated wilderness areas from potential land sales.

Trump Ripped For Complaining That Americans Get 'Too Many' Federal Holidays Off Work

While it was ultimately former President Joe Biden who established Juneteenth as a federal holiday, President Donald Trump—who once campaigned on that promise—took to Truth Social on Juneteenth to whine about the number of "non-working holidays" Americans get, claiming that it costs businesses "billions of dollars."

Juneteenth is derived from June 19, 1865, when Union troops led by General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and declared that all enslaved African Americans in the state were free.

While it doesn't always happen, sometimes we get to see karma at work—and sometimes, the revenge is sweet.

TikToker @cassdamm, who previously went viral for sharing the unhinged, five-page letter her 15-year-old son's principal sent, complaining about him "wandering the halls" and "being truant" for buying a drink on his way back to class, is openly celebrating the death of her father, but it's not for the reason you'd think.

Woman Sparks Debate About What Color Her Furniture Is—Only To Discover She's Colorblind

We've all heard the saying that there's no way of knowing everything that you don't know until you're faced with it directly. For some people, that could even be the color of the world around them.

Kristin Hughes, or @im.krispy on TikTok, reached out to the platform for a second opinion while she was trying to list a chair on Facebook Marketplace.
