Hillary Clinton criticizes Ron DeSantis amid Twitter speculation about 2024.
Hillary Clinton Attacks Ron DeSantis on Twitter
Failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton took to Twitter on Tuesday to attack Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is reportedly considering a run for the White House in 2024. Clinton piggybacked on the NAACP’s travel advisory for the state, claiming that DeSantis’ battle against the teaching of critical race theory and LGBT indoctrination of children has made Florida “openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals.”

Despite disabling comments on her tweet, Twitter users had their say. OutKick’s Clay Travis tweeted, “This is really the attack left wingers are going with? That Florida, which has gained over a million new residents since Ron Desantis became governor, isn’t safe for minorities or gay people? Does anyone actually believe this? The lies just keep getting crazier.”

Clinton also did little to help the Democrats’ likely 2024 nominee over the weekend at the Financial Times Weekend Festival in Washington. When asked about President Joe Biden’s age, Clinton said, “But his age is an issue. And people have every right to consider it.”

With DeSantis trailing former President Donald Trump in the GOP primary polls, Mark Penn, a former pollster for Clinton, recently used an Op-Ed in The Wall Street Journal as a platform for giving the governor some advice. “To get back in the game, Mr. DeSantis has to put cultural issues to the side and run on character, competence and common sense,” he said.
