Ron DeSantis: 'I Was One Of The Guys That Opposed McCarthy Before It Was Cool'

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis told FNC's Neil Cavuto on Tuesday afternoon that he "opposed McCarthy before it was cool" but explained that he doesn't think Rep. Matt Gaetz has a plan for what to do after ousting McCarthy as House Speaker, calling it "failure theater."

"I think when you're doing things, you need to be doing it because it's the right thing to do. It shouldn’t be done with an eye towards trying to generate lists or trying to generate fundraising. So, that is not the way I would operate," he said about Gaetz. "I look at guys like Chip Roy, Tom Massie, Jim Jordan, and they’re basically saying there’s not a plan to go forward with whatever Matt Gaetz is doing."

He also commented on rumors that Rep. Matt Gaetz is considering a run for governor of Florida.
