Thursday's talking point has apparently been disseminated.
This isn't a talking point, and it's absurd to suggest otherwise. Clay Travis specifically asked Desantis whether he would put Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on his ticket as vice president. Here's his response, which others have partially quoted:
Quote:
Here's the issue, like, I'm aligned with him on Fauci, and the corruption, and the health bureaucracies 100 percent, and I think he's probably said, done some other things that I agree with too, but, end of the day, he's more liberal, very liberal on some I mean he used to say, I don't know if he still believes this, that if you deny climate change you should go to jail, things like that . . . so I just think at the end of the day you need someone that's going to reflect the broad values of the coalition. Yes, the medical stuff, I'm very good on that, so that does appeal to me, but there's a whole host of other things that he'd probably be out of step with? And so on that regard it's like, okay, if you're president, you know, sic him on the FDA if he'd be willing to serve, or sic him on CDC, but in terms of being Veep, there's, you know, 70 percent of the issues that he may be averse to our base on, you know that just creates an issue.
Kind of rambling, but to me he is saying, "no Clay, RFKJ won't be my VP but maybe to put him in the FDA or CDC." Even if that wasn't what he meant, Desantis made a profound blunder here. All he had to say was "no, Clay, I strenuously disagree with RFKJ on most issues, and I wouldn't consider a Democrat for VP or any other position".
I won't stop supporting Desantis over this, but it worries me that he can say something so stupid.
