FLORIDA DEMOCRATS REACT TO ‘FLORIDA NIGHT’ AT THE RNC CONVENTION

Tallahassee, FL — The Republican National Convention is now underway and on the second night, Florida Republicans, including Senators Scott and Rubio and Governor DeSantis, took center stage. In response, the Florida Democratic Party released the following statement:

“This is a clown show,” said Florida Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried. “It was ‘Florida Night’ at the RNC and Republicans were tripping over themselves to line up behind Donald Trump.

“On night two, Florida Republicans took center stage as the circus continued at the Republican National Convention. Rick Scott reappeared after being MIA for seven days, Rubio limped on stage after being rejected as Trump’s running mate and DeSantis recycled old talking points from his failed presidential campaign.

“The Republican Party can preach ‘unity’ all night long but the only thing they are united on is sending America backwards. In primetime, Americans got a preview of what Trump’s Project 2025 looks like. These dangerous and extreme policies are the backbone of the modern Republican Party and represent a vision for America that threatens to take us back to a time when we had fewer rights.

“In November, Floridians have a clear choice to make: Elect a Biden-Harris ticket that will lead to truly unite the country or a Trump-Vance ticket focused on advancing an extreme and out-of-touch agenda.”
