Senate Republicans Break With DeSantis Over Remarks On Pulling Support From Ukraine
Top Senate Republicans went after Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) on Tuesday in response to the likely 2024 hopeful’s recent comments about U.S. involvement in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
As part of a Tucker Carlson survey of likely 2024 Republican primary candidates, the governor told the Fox News host in a statement that defending Ukraine from Russia was not a vital American national strategic interest.
“While the U.S. has many vital national interests—securing our borders, addressing the crisis of readiness within our military, achieving energy security and independence, and checking the economic, cultural and military power of the Chinese Communist Party—becoming further entangled in a territorial dispute between Ukraine and Russia is not one of them,” DeSantis said.
Several top Senate Republicans have since criticized the governor for his flippant response. In a Tuesday interview with right-wing radio host Hugh Hewitt, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) distanced himself from the fellow Florida Republican’s stance.

Is DeSantis racist or does he just love him some Putin?
