Ron DeSantis on Tuesday brushed off former President Donald Trump\u2019s latest attacks with a simple message: check the scoreboard.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Asked during a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> conference about Trump\u2019s criticism over the weekend of his <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roach to the COVID-19 pandemic, DeSantis responded with a reminder that he won reelection last year by the largest margin of any Republican Florida governor in the state\u2019s modern history.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr1_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>\u201cWhen you\u2019re an elected executive, you have to make all kinds of decisions\u2019 you got to steer that ship. And the good thing is, is that the people are able to render a judgment on that \u2013 whether they reelect you or not,\u201d DeSantis said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I\u2019m happy to say, you know, in my case, not only did we win reelection, we won with the highest percentage of the vote that any Republican governor candidate has in the history of the state of Florida,\u201d he added. \u201cWe won by the largest raw vote margin \u2013 over 1.5 million votes \u2013 than any governor candidate has ever had in Florida history.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, DeSantis defeated former Rep. Charlie Crist (D-Fla.) in November by a staggering 19-point margin. It was the largest spread in a Florida gubernatorial race in four decades.<\/p>\n<p>Trump lost his reelection bid in 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic. He is now seeking to mount a political comeback by running for the GOP presidential nomination in 2024. DeSantis is not in that race but is widely seen as a potential contender.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis\u2019s comments came days after Trump called out the Florida governor and one-time political ally during a campaign swing through New Hampshire and South Carolina.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trump accused DeSantis of \u201ctrying to rewrite history\u201d when it came to his early handling of the COVID-19 outbreak, arguing that Florida was \u201cclosed for a long period of time\u201d at the outset of the pandemic.\u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr2_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>In separate remarks to The Associated Press, Trump also took aim at DeSantis\u2019s rumored presidential ambitions, saying that running for the White House would be a \u201cgreat act of disloyalty.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis hasn\u2019t said much about his 2024 plans, though his advisers are said to be actively preparing for a presidential campaign. If he decides to run, an announcement wouldn\u2019t likely come until later this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It wasn\u2019t the first time that Trump took aim at DeSantis, who is seen as perhaps the biggest threat to the former president\u2019s bid to recapture the GOP nomination in 2024. For his part, DeSantis has largely ignored Trump\u2019s criticism and has avoided mentioning him directly.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr3_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>After Trump took a jab at DeSantis late last year, he shrugged it off as nothing more than \u201cnoise.\u201d On Tuesday, he used a similar retort.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI roll out of bed, I have people attacking me from all angles,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s been happening for many, many years.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
