Ron DeSantis Sparks Backlash After Joe Biden Hurricane Snub – By Khaleda Rahman (Newsweek) / Sept 2, 2023
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been accused of “petty politics” after he snubbed President Joe Biden when he visited the state on Saturday to survey the damage caused by Hurricane Idalia.
DeSantis and Biden met when the president toured Florida after Hurricane Ian hit the state last year, and in the aftermath of the Surfside condo collapse in Miami Beach in 2021.
The pair have been speaking regularly this week about Idalia, but DeSantis avoided being photographed with Biden as he visited Florida on Saturday.
