Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Thursday criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for trying to interfere in the response to hurricanes Helene and Milton.

DeSantis and Harris have clashed in recent days after the governor declined to take a call from Harris regarding the hurricane response. He said Thursday that Harris played “no role” in the process, adding that she never tried to call him during previous storms in Florida.

“I work with the President of the United States. I work with the director of FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency). We’ve been doing this nonstop for over two weeks now,” DeSantis said Thursday.

“Even though I worked well with the president, she never called Florida. She never offered support,” he said of Harris. “I don’t have time for these games. I’m not interested in your campaign. Of course I am not a supporter of hers, but she is not, she has no role in this process. And that’s why I work with the people I have to work with.

The argument between DeSantis and Harris reached the White House press office on Wednesday when a reporter asked President Biden whether it was the governor’s responsibility to answer the vice president’s calls.

“All I can tell you is that I have spoken to Governor DeSantis,” Biden responded. “He was very friendly. He thanked me for everything we did. He knows what we’re doing and I think that’s important.”

Biden has had several phone conversations with DeSantis since Hurricane Helene began ravaging the Southeast two weeks ago, followed by Hurricane Milton’s landfall late Wednesday, urging both DeSantis and Tampa Mayor Jane Castor to contact him “to call directly” if further support was needed.

“People urgently need support now and are playing political games with this moment. In these crisis situations, they are the peak of the emergency situation. This is just completely irresponsible and selfish,” Harris told reporters on Monday.

Biden, on the other hand, had instead described the governor of Florida as “cooperative”.
