After completely biffing her 60 Minutes interview (after which the network edited out her word salad), Vice President Kamala Harris has come under fire for accusing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis of “political gamesmanship” after reports emerged that he didn’t take her calls ahead of Hurricane Milton.

When asked about the alleged snub, Harris said DeSantis was being selfish and “utterly responsible” for not taking her call.

Reporter: There are reports that DeSantis is ignoring your calls..

Kamala Harris: Playing political games at this moment…It’s utterly irresponsible and it is selfish and it is about political gamesmanship instead of doing the job that you took an oath to do pic.twitter.com/lySDD98xO9

In a Monday evening interview with Fox News, DeSantis said he’s “leveraging all resources available, including from the federal government” to prepare for the storm that’s headed straight for Tampa. DeSantis said he’s been in touch with both President Joe Biden and officials from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

“And so for Kamala Harris to try to say that my sole focus on the people of Florida is somehow selfish, is delusional,” said DeSantis.

WOW! Listen to this! 🔥🔥

Hannity: “Has she [Harris] ever called before?”

DeSantis: “NO, she has no role in this. She has never called in her 3 1/2 years as vice president. She has never contributed to any of these efforts! I don’t have time for her political game. I am laser… pic.twitter.com/VYN1nZ2L04

“She has no role in this. In fact, she’s been vice president for three and a half years. I’ve dealt with a number of storms under this administration. She has never contributed anything to any of these efforts, and so what I think is selfish is her trying to blunder into this,” he continued.

He took her to task on Tuesday, where he said “It’s not about you, Kamala,” adding “She has never called on any of the storms we’ve had when she’s been vice president until apparently now. Why all the sudden is she trying to parachute in and inject herself?”

LASER EYES!

You know it’s bad when CNN and President Biden back DeSantis…

“She’s attacking the governor of a state that’s about to get lashed with one of the worst storms,” said CNN senior political commentator Scott Jennings, adding “Is she crazy?“

It’s legitimately crazy that Harris attacked Governor DeSantis, who is prepping for a historically bad storm. She’s politicizing when she and Biden were SLOW on their decisions.

And on Tuesday, Biden said DeSantis is doing a great job, and that he gave the governor his personal phone number in case he needs anything.

Holy crap, Joe Biden just said Ron DeSantis has his direct number, is doing a great job on hurricane response, directly undercutting Kamala. Biden hates her. Not hiding it now: pic.twitter.com/Bm95Nh75Iq

Brandon’s revenge?

Feels newsy that yesterday Kamala Harris marched towards reporters and accused DeSantis of playing politics two days from a major hurricane hitting his state, and now the President has come out and said that’s not true. https://t.co/KiGrtb0loq
