He’s only been a presidential candidate for two weeks, but Ron DeSantis is already finding himself defending his chief rival.
Several hours after news broke that former President Donald Trump was indicted over his handling of classified documents, DeSantis lambasted the Department of Justice.
“The weaponization of federal law enforcement represents a mortal threat to a free society. We have for years witnessed an uneven application of the law depending upon political affiliation. Why so zealous in pursuing Trump yet so passive about Hillary or Hunter?” DeSantis tweeted about two hours after the news. “The DeSantis administration will bring accountability to the DOJ, excise political bias and end weaponization once and for all.”
