DeSantis: Haley, Pence Are Part Of “Culture Of Losing”

May 25, 2023 Infighting Is Funny, Republicans

Florida Politics reports:

Gov. Ron DeSantis’ talking points about a Republican “culture of losing” have been interpreted generally as a jab at Donald Trump, but they apparently go beyond the former President. Conservative talk show host Erick Erickson asked the Florida Governor and freshly minted presidential candidate about what makes him a better option than Nikki Haley, Mike Pence and Tim Scott, all of whom Erickson counts as friends.

“You’ve got a sitting Senator, you’ve got a former Vice President, a former Governor. You’ve got an Ambassador. Why not them for the presidency?” The Governor stuck to his script, depicting himself as “the only one” in the field with a winning record of delivering conservative policy goals. “Well, we have a culture of losing in our party and there’s really no substitute for victory. We can’t have any more excuses. We’ve got to get it done,” DeSantis said.
