MSNBC host Joy Reid appeared to gloat that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has to request federal aid from his political rival, President Joe Biden, in order to help his state recover from the catastrophic effects of Hurricane Ian.
On Thursday’s episode of her nightly news talk show “The ReidOut,” Reid noted that the Republican DeSantis, who has been mentioned as a possible presidential candidate for 2024, must now “go hat in hand to Joe Biden for aid.”
“It’s something he didn’t even believe in as a tea partier,” Reid said. Her comments were transcribed by the news site Mediaite.
