I just watched the interview of Gov. Ron DeSantis conducted by Fox News' Trey Gowdy, which was taped later on the same night he announced his candidacy for president. Gowdy did a good job, and so did DeSantis.
The interview lasts some 18 minutes and is worth your time. Unlike his earlier audio-only effort with Musk on Twitter, there are no distracting technical glitches on his Fox interview posted to YouTube.
I particularly liked his answer to Gowdy's question of how he will handle derogatory nicknames and insults. He said basically it comes with the territory and, compared to how much many have suffered, is no big deal.
Without ever mentioning Trump, DeSantis made sure to tell viewers his was a blue collar background and he earned everything he got. The record seems to bear out that claim.
I totally liked his values on immigration and the wall, the need to bring critical manufacturing home, and stop the pedophile grooming of children.
Do yourself a favor and watch this interview. DeSantis doesn't have Trump's show biz flair, but he is no embarrassment like the current POTUS. Actually he reminds me of a good CEO, which is what I'd like all our presidents to be.
