Ocasio-Cortez responded by claiming that Republicans only attacked her because they were mad they couldn\u2019t date her.<\/p>\n<p>Republican Florida Governor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/im-not-surprised-desantis-says-hed-be-a-pretty-doggone-wealthy-man-if-he-had-a-dollar-for-every-lockdown-politician-who-escaped-to-florida\">Ron DeSantis<\/a> responded to Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s trip to the Sunshine State, saying that he was not surprised to see \u201clockdown\u201d politicians \u2014 most of whom favored more draconian mandates and policies in their own states \u2014 enjoying their time in his state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook, I think if you \u2014 if I had a dollar for every lockdown politician who decided to escape to Florida over the last 2 years\u2026 I\u2019d be a pretty doggone wealthy man, let me tell ya,\u201d DeSantis said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI mean, Congresspeople, mayors, governors, I mean, you name it. It\u2019s interesting though, the reception that some of these folks will get in Florida. Because I think a lot of Floridians will say \u2018Wait a minute, you\u2019re bashing us because we\u2019re not doing your draconian policies, and yet we\u2019re the first place you want to flee to to basically to be able to enjoy life.
