Ron DeSantis keeps up negative (and false) attacks on Gillum in Tampa

Meeting and greeting Tampa Republicans Saturday, GOP candidate for Florida governor Ron DeSantis gave a speech devoted almost entirely to attacking and mischaracterizing his Democratic opponent, Andrew Gillum, saying little about his own plans or ideas for governing Florida.

The event capped a day of campaigning in Central Florida for DeSantis, including a news conference with Puerto Rican backers in Orlando and a rally at The Villages retirement community.

In Tampa, an enthusiastic crowd made up largely of grass-roots campaign workers crammed into a tiny GOP campaign office suite for an appearance by DeSantis, his wife Casey and Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fort Walton Beach.

For about 20 minutes, they heard DeSantis launch one attack after another.

And for labelling them as such. And for saying he has not revealed any of his policies.
