WASHINGTON — President Biden said Tuesday that Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been “cooperative” with him as Hurricane Milton nears the Sunshine State — one day after Vice President Kamala Harris complained that DeSantis didn’t take her call.
“The governor of Florida has been cooperative. He said he’s gotten all that he needs. I talked to him again yesterday,” Biden said at the White House before heading to Wisconsin and Pennsylvania to campaign for Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, and Sen. Bob Casey (D-Pa.).
“I literally gave him my personal phone number to call,” Biden added of DeSantis. “So I don’t know — there was a rough start in some places, but every governor, every governor from Florida to North Carolina, has been fully cooperative and supportive and acknowledged what this team is doing.”
