DeSantis On Why America Is LOSING

Is DeSantis right?

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis just revealed why America is falling behind China when it comes to the economy and overall growth.

According to Breitbart, Gov. DeSantis believes that American politicians along with the corporate elites are the number one reason that China has become “as powerful as they are.”

During a recent State Board of Administration meeting, Gov. DeSantis targeted America’s “ruling class” and accused them of propping up China by letting them into the World Trade Organization (WTO) and sending American dollars overseas for more personal gain.

During his speech DeSantis explained, “The American elites thought ‘Well, that will make China more like us, they won’t be a rogue country, they’ll respect human rights, and maybe become more democratic.’ And the reality is, not only has that not happened, it’s made China very powerful and the elites in the U.S. are the number one reason China is as powerful as they are with all that they’ve done.”

DeSantis later explained, “We saw it when covid first hit … people wanted masks and all these other things and all of it was being produced in China. They basically controlled all of this. They have a lot of control over components of our economy which affects our national security and so I think that the U.S. as a whole should be disentangling from China but certainly our investments should be disentangling.”
