While traveling in Japan today to meet with Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, Governor DeSantis was asked by a reporter about falling behind Trump in the polls.
Here’s what DeSantis had to say to the question:

DeSantis shrewdly answers the question by saying “I’m not a candidate. So we’ll see if and when that changes.”
And notice the impression on his face when he answered it. He clearly found some humor in the question and wasn’t trying to run and hide.
While we’re on the topic of DeSantis, here’s a strange clip last night from Steve Hilton and Kat Timpf attacking him over holding Disney accountable.

DeSantis explained well last week why it’s necessary to hold woke companies accountable when they are abusing benefits given to them by the state to go after children and parents. If you missed that, you can watch it here.
