Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) called the Jan. 6 Capitol attack "Christmas" for media organizations based in Washington D.C. and New York, adding that he would not be watching coverage of the day because he found it "nauseating."
When asked his thoughts about the one-year Jan. 6 anniversary Thursday, DeSantis instead criticized the media for their coverage of the attack. He added that "there is an obsession with this among the DC-New York journalist class" while referring to the Jan. 6 anniversary.
DeSantis said he believes the media can "spin" a "narrative that they want."
"They are going to take this and milk this for anything they could to try to be able to smear anyone, whoever supported Donald Trump," he added.

Actually Jan. 6 is when Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas. Since you have presidential ambitions you might want to be a bit more cautious with your comments DeSantis.

(100,150 posts)Instead he and his goons stormed the capitol and trashed the place with hopes of murdering those who they didn't agree with and went so far as to threaten to hang their own sitting vice president. Well, Ronny, I hope this day is miserable for you!
