His goal should have been yesterday to get everybody back in school, but he can\u2019t do that because he doesn\u2019t want to upset the teachers\u2019 unions.\u00a0It\u2019s a pathetic failure of leadership to not stand up for these kids and for these families.\u201dIn April, DeSantis called Biden an \u201caggressive left-wing culture warrior.\u201d He said of the political Left: \u201cI think they\u2019re very caustic and nasty.\u00a0I think unless they make us a complete socialist country, these people are never going to be happy, and I think that even though Biden\u2019s been the most left-wing president of our lifetimes, I would say, even more than LBJ \u2014LBJ wasn\u2019t as left-wing on the culture as Biden is, and Biden is an aggressive left-wing culture warrior \u2014 but I think anything short of complete domination of conservatism, making sure people that have conservative views are shut out, anything short of that, they\u2019re just not going to be happy.\u201d He added of the Democratic party, \u201cI think they\u2019re captive to that part of their base and I think that\u2019s ultimately going to be their undoing in 2022 and then I think probably in 2024.\u201dThe Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
