And we looked up on the internet, and there was a center 20 miles away where we could go to get the monoclonal antibody therapy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost of these other governors and the people like [Dr. Anthony] Fauci and the federal leadership, they basically say, \u2018Get a shot, wear a mask\u2019 and they never talk about treatment. And we\u2019ve really embraced treatment because that\u2019s just the reality of what we\u2019re facing,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/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\/\">DeSantis<\/a> explained.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis also noted, in a clip that previewed the interview, that attacks from the left and the mainstream media were fair indicators that he was doing his job.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you\u2019re over the target, they\u2019re going to come at you,\u201d he said. \u201cIf the corporate press nationally isn\u2019t attacking me, then I\u2019m probably not doing my job. So, the fact that they are attacking me is a good indication that I\u2019m tackling the big issues.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\u201cWhen you\u2019re over the target, they\u2019re going to come after you.<\/p>\n<p>If the corporate press nationally isn\u2019t attacking me, then I\u2019m probably not doing my job.

Now, the question is, Biden did mention it once, he mentioned it after \u2014 right before they cut our supply, he said we\u2019ll ramp up the monoclonal antibodies then he turns around and cuts the supply, we have not seen the ramp up. He had months and months after this was demonstrated to be effective to be ready for this, and we haven\u2019t seen that. I don\u2019t think that they\u2019re ultimately going to embrace it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis argued that Biden and Fauci appeared to have \u201ctunnel vision\u201d with regard to their approach, promoting the vaccines as the only correct response to COVID, and that had come around to backfire on Biden in particular.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe gets in and now you see, cases and all this like no one anticipated was even possible, and of course his central promise of his campaign goes up in smoke. As a result they try to find scapegoats and I think trying to fight with Florida or Texas is something they do to divert attention from their failure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
