Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has defended his controversial anti-LGBTQ ad, claiming that criticism of former President Donald Trump is “totally fair game”. The ad has been met with backlash from LGBTQ+ activists and allies, who have accused DeSantis of using the former president’s record to distract from his own anti-LGBTQ+ policies. Trump has yet to comment on the ad or DeSantis’ remarks, as he reportedly gears up for a 2024 presidential run.
