And the idea that they\u2019re releasing people who have not been rehabilitated early, so that they can prey on people in our society is a huge, huge mistake.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis voted for the initial House version of the bill while serving as a congressman in 2018, something Trump\u2019s team has <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheStevenCheung\/status\/1641264431828021248\">highlighted<\/a>. He had resigned his seat before the final version, which critics argued contained significant changes from the House version to make it more moderate, came up for a vote later in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the criminal justice bill is one example of how DeSantis is likely to argue that Trump is not conservative enough for primary voters. DeSantis\u2019s comments came on the same day that he told a Tennessee radio host that he felt Trump was \u201crunning to the left.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Trump signed the First Step Act into law in December 2018, touted it as a major achievement that would improve community safety and give a second-chance to those who earned it.<\/p>\n<p>But the former president and the Republican Party as a whole have largely shied away from the politics of the criminal justice reform bill over the last few years, instead hammering the issue of crime and accusing Democrats of making cities less safe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Copyright 2023 Nexstar <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Media<\/a> Inc.
