Florida governor and presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis slammed the debt ceiling agreement negotiated by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and President Biden during an appearance on Fox and Friends.
Fox News host Kayleigh McEnany asked DeSantis for his thoughts on the deal. The Florida governor opted to echo the sentiments of Freedom Caucus Republicans in both the House and Senate in arguing the deal amounts to reckless spending.

“Prior to this deal, our country was careening toward bankruptcy. And after this deal, our country will still be careening toward bankruptcy. To say you can do $4 trillion of increases in the next year-and-a-half, that’s a massive amount of spending,” DeSantis said.
“I think that we’ve gotten ourselves on a trajectory here, really since March of 2020 with some of the COVID spending. It totally reset the budget and they’re sticking with that, and I think that’s just gonna be totally inadequate to get us in a better spot.”
