In the face of impending Hurricane Milton, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has refuted claims made by Vice President Kamala Harris accusing him of “political gamesmanship”. DeSantis has labeled these accusations as “delusional”, following reports that he did not respond to Harris’s calls during the hurricane preparations.

In response to Harris’s criticism, DeSantis stated, “And so for Kamala Harris to try to say that my sole focus on the people of Florida is somehow selfish, is delusional.” He accused Harris of trying to politicize the storm for her campaign.

Previously, Harris had expressed her concerns about DeSantis’s refusal to take her calls, accusing him of prioritizing political games over the welfare of the people. DeSantis, however, countered these accusations by emphasizing his focus on the people of Florida and his effective management of several storms during his tenure.

DeSantis’s handling of the hurricane situation and his relationship with the federal government could have significant implications for the welfare of Florida’s residents, especially as Hurricane Milton is expected to make landfall in Tampa, Florida on Wednesday evening.
