DeSantis Doubles Down On ‘Brandon Administration’ Comment When Pressed By Reporter

WPEC CBS12 News reporter Jay O’Brien pressed the Florida governor on calling the administration “the Brandon administration” in reference to the popular anti-Biden phrase “Let’s Go, Brandon” at an election integrity press conference on Nov. 3 in Tampa Bay.

“Do you feel that that is the proper level of exchange between a governor and a president?” O’Brien asked.

“Well, let me ask you how he’s treated us. Well, look, I think it’s a joke but honestly, one of the reasons why that has taken on is because a lot of your folks in the national media, they get very sensitive to it,” DeSantis responded. “Because what happened was people were chanting something else very colorful. You had a reporter though, say it was ‘Let’s Go, Brandon’ when that’s not really what was said.”

“I think the reason why it’s caught on is because I think it needles the national media a little bit because look, they’ve become very partisan.”

DeSantis previously criticized the national media’s “dishonesty” at the Nov. 3 press conference in response to Stavast’s reporting. He argued that the chant “has taken on a life of its own” to expose corporate reporters for hiding the truth.

Former Clinton-era press secretary and CNN analyst Joe Lockhart recently compared the chant to ISIS, Ku Klux Klan and Nazi rhetoric via Twitter.

Someone needs to sit down with the media, pat their heads, and gently say, “Bless your heart.”

Need to make Lets Go Brandon! The battle Cry of the Republic. Maybe Trump could start a Brandon Party? Or write a Book—Let’s Go Brandon! Exit Biden! The Liberals are caught in a trap of their own making.

WPEC CBS12 News reporter Jay O’Brien can wrap his question about the “Brandon Administration” in barbed wire and use it as a suppository.

I’m betting if we repeatedly refer to it as the Brandon Administration, in short order Biden will start calling himself Brandon.

Great call - it works for me!
