We always expect these guys to actually get something done and they never do. Look at the House. I mean, we added four Republicans just from Florida in the 2022 election. Have they done anything to stop any of the problems with this government using the power of the purse? No, they haven\u2019t done anything. You look at the Republican National Committee, it\u2019s almost bankrupt. The chairman\u2019s going to likely quit. These guys are like the keystone cops, and I just think a lot of voters are really getting sick of it. I see a lot of failure theater, I see a lot of virtue signaling, but I don\u2019t see a lot of actual results.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis then contrasted some of the chaos at the national level with how Republicans govern in the state of Florida.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I think Florida, we\u2019re much different than that because we believe in speaking softly and let our actions speak louder than our words,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd so yes, we go out, we make the case, we\u2019ll lay down the marker, but that\u2019s always followed with action and actually producing results. And that\u2019s what this is all about. And I look at the failures that happen in Washington over and over again and you just think about it and you just shake your head. So, all I can say is, I\u2019m glad we\u2019re hunkered down here in Florida because we\u2019ll make sure we get it done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1700760801843000&#038;usg=AOvVaw2PQrVSrJfhxNb4LcARqniG\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>WATCH:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GovRonDeSantis?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@GovRonDeSantis<\/a> throwing fire:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHave [Republicans] done anything to stop any of the problems with this government using the power of the purse?
