Over the weekend, Ron DeSantis ran to Fox News to, you know, maybe get a little bit of positive
media coverage about his failing campaign. But Fox News host Maria Bartiromo didn't wanna let
him really have the opportunity to explain things away. And she basically asked him,
why do you suck so bad at this? Now, that's not how she put it, but that is effectively what she
was asking him. She's pointed out the fact that, hey, your polls are down, man. You're out there
every day, but it's actually making things worse for you. What in God's name are you doing here?
And DeSantis didn't really have an answer, but here is the exchange as it took place. Bartiromo
said, what's going on with your campaign there? There was a lot of optimism about you running
for president earlier in the year, but here's this weekend's headline from Politico Playbook.
What happened? And DeSantis tried to blame it on the media. You know, she brought up Politico
running the headline of, you know, DeSantis campaign is in Shambles. So DeSantis followed up
her question of why you suck so badly by saying, quote, Maria, these are narratives. The media does
not want me to be the nominee. I, I think that's very, very clear. Why? Because they know I'll beat
Biden. But even more importantly, they know I will actually deliver on all these things. Uh, we've
got a long way to go. I'm looking forward to being able to participate in the debates. But this is
not something that, you know, I ever expected to just snap fingers. And all of a sudden, you know,
you win seven months before anything happens. You've gotta work and it requires a lot of toil
and tears and sweat, and we're going to do that. Oh, I imagine there's gonna be lots of tears, Ron,
because your campaign doesn't seem to be doing any of those things that you say you're gonna do.
But you can sit there and blame the media all you want. Like it's the media's narrative.
It's not, man. It's actually the polls. And Maria Bartiromo, I'm gonna read that in a minute,
but she did bring up like, eh, the polls show that you're losing pretty badly, bud.
But here's the thing, Ron, it, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what the hell's
going on with you. You go out there, you do your speeches, you appear in the media, you even talk
to people face to face, which actually makes them less likely to like you afterwards. But all you
do is you get out there and you say like, woke, woke, woke, woke, woke, woke, woke, woke, woke,
woke, wokeness woke, goes to die. Woke woke. You, you, you're a OneNote pony.
Like you only know how to say the word woke and people are getting sick of it because it doesn't
mean anything. Meanwhile, you can't talk about your so-called accomplishments down here in the
state of Florida because the court system keeps dismantling them. So you don't even have those
actual accomplishments that you wanna pretend that you have because they're all unconstitutional,
as the courts have decided. So what do you have to talk about? What record do you have to run on
as somebody that has lived in Florida a lot longer than you, by the way,
I can tell you, you've done nothing. I can look at your record and see that you've done nothing.
I can look around my neighborhood, my town, my office, and see that you have
done nothing. That Florida continues to descend into the seventh level of hell.
You have nothing to talk about. You have nothing to run on. And the media has finally caught onto
that. Your voters have finally caught onto that. So once you step outside these deep red
borders of Florida, you realize that you don't have an audience because you have no platform.
And that's what's killing your campaign. It's not just that you're an unlikable weirdo, it's that
you have no record, you have no platform, you have nothing to talk about. And Maria Bar Maria
Bartiromo, excuse me, did wrap it up by saying, I wanna look at this poll number as we get into
this first primary debate. A ask you how you're preparing for the debate. Look where Donald Trump
is going into this debate. Above 50%. At 56%, you're at 22% according to this poll. So that
was Maria Bartiromo basically saying like, yeah, I mean, I know you say it's the media, but it's
the voters. The voters don't like you. They don't know what you stand for. They think you're weird.
They don't like you, and your numbers are getting worse. And if DeSantis continues down this path
that he is currently on, it's going to continue to get worse. And I find that absolutely hilarious.
