DeSantis malfunctions when asked simple yes-or-no question: "Will you serve a full four year term?" (video) [1]

['Carla Sinclair']

Date: 2022-10-25

Ron DeSantis was left speechless during his debate with Rep. Charlie Crist (D–FL) last night.

After kindly explaining to DeSantis that he was not running against Biden — "I can see how you might get confused, but you're running for governor" — Crist asked him the most basic of questions: "Yes or no, Ron. Will you serve a full four-year term if you're reelected governor of Florida?"

But the question proved to be too complex for the one-track-minded governor, who glitched out on stage, staring into nothingness as his system shut down. Easier to unplug than to figure out how to answer a question like that when caught off guard.

i am just catching up on the DeSantis-Crist debate and OMG



Crist: "Yes or no, Ron. Will you serve a full four year term if you're reelected governor of Florida? It's not a tough question. It's a fair question. He won't tell ya."
