Florida Governor Ron DeSantis criticized President Joe Biden’s handling of classified material following the conclusion of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report.
DeSantis raised concerns about Biden’s mental competence, suggesting that if Biden is not mentally capable, the 25th Amendment should be used to remove him from office.
DeSantis said, “This was willful retention of documents over many decades, this was like a pattern and practice when he was a U.S. senator, when he was vice president, when he got out of office.”

“And I think back to the Hillary Clinton case which you and I both thought merited prosecution at the time. But Hillary, she set up that server, it wasn’t about classified, she just didn’t want her communications to be subjected to FOIA because of whatever she was doing, Clinton Foundation, who knows. So she was willing to risk exposure of classified by having this private server,” continued the Florida governor.
“Biden, I think was even more willful because he was doing this for a pattern of practice,” suggested DeSantis.
“But they are hanging their hat on the fact that this guy is effectively not mentally competent to stand trial,” he continued.
“How pathetic is that for our country that this is the guy with the nuclear codes?” he asked.
DeSantis said, “If you had a Republican president or even a candidate who had the same level of mental acuity, same level of dementia as Joe Biden did, it would be a nonstop feeding frenzy by the corporate media.”
DeSantis accused the media of protecting Biden and noted that the press conference was a disaster, questioning whether Biden’s staff wanted him to appear in order to prompt the Democrat Party to consider other options.
“The media has very much run cover and interference for Biden,” charged the Florida Republican.
“I think the question is, is he went out on the press conference the other night, it was a disaster,” recalled DeSantis.
“Did his staff not want him to do that or did they want him to do that knowing maybe this ends up causing the Democrat Party to look elsewhere come convention time? Because I can tell you as bad as Biden’s policies are, which is the main reason I’ve opposed him from the start, if you ask the average American voter, the thing they like least about him is the fact that he’s lost so much on his fastball and that he’s just not up to the job. That’s not something you can cure,” he concluded.
