Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis took some shots at President Biden Sunday evening, claiming that the White House has crippled the economy with its policies.
Speaking at a rally in Wisconsin, DeSantis said the administration's "massive spending" led to high inflation, and the response has hurt the American people further.
"[W]e're staring down the barrel of a lot of really significant turbulence thanks to Joe Biden," DeSantis said. "You know, they've had the inflation, which has been a total disaster. They're raising interest rates. They're slowing down the economy. You know, you apply for a mortgage a year ago, what was it like, two point six percent, two point five? Now it's like over six percent. That's a massive increase. Very difficult for working people to be able to afford such a stiff increase."
DeSantis said he is confident that Wisconsin's Republican gubernatorial candidate, businessman Tim Michels, will be able to help the state through the tough times.
