He questioned \u2063why Trump was running on the same promises\u200d from 2016 that he failed to implement, such as &#8220;draining the swamp&#8221; by not firing Christopher\u200b Wray and Anthony Fauci.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis also called out Trump\u2062 for the massive amounts of debt accumulated during his last year in office and \u200dthe potential inflation it could lead to.
