This is a typical distortion. What he said was that he likes all of President Trump’s Supreme Court picks, but the best justices are Thomas and Alito. Anyone want to argue that?

From the article....

Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett — pale in comparison to Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. DeSantis then claimed that although he appreciates the work of all three, he would select more ideologically conservative justices as president.

Where did he say that he “likes all of President Trump’s Supreme Court picks”?

Also from the article...

“In Florida, I inherited a very liberal state supreme court, maybe the most liberal in the country, very activist,” DeSantis told Hewitt.

“I was able to replace three of the four liberals my first month in office with conservative justices,” DeSantis added. “I’ve since been able to make a number of appointments since then. So we now have the most conservative state supreme court in the country. And so I think we have a really good track record on doing that.”

Pres Trump also inherited a liberal Supreme Court and shifted the balance to Conservatives, thus negating Roberts as the wild card, who took the place of that clown Kennedy.

And, again, DeSantis did all of that with a veto proof Republican legislature, Republican control in all but 3 counties, a strong Republican voter base. Basically, Republicans control EVERYTHING in Florida. A 4 yr old could do what he did with that kind of support.

He won’t have that luxury in DC, not that he’ll ever get within a mile of the WH anyway.

Another lie from a da santis supporter....

When asked by radio host Hugh Hewitt if he would “pledge to the Republicans as you go around the country that your judges will be like the Trump judges,” the 44-year-old DeSantis responded: “Well, actually, I would say we’ll do better than that.

“I respect the three appointees he did, but none of those three are at the same level of Justice [Clarence] Thomas and Justice [Samuel] Alito,” DeSantis said of Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett. “I think they [Alito and Thomas] are the gold standard.”

Fall short....

Let's see your list, duh santis.

Here is the actual DeSantis quote: "We'll do better than that. I respect the three appointees he [Trump] did, but none of those three are at the same level of Justices Thomas and Justice Alito."

Audio:

"We'll do better than [Trump on SC judges]"
