This would have been a massacre and must-see TV.
Showing that he is not only just but merciful, Ron DeSantis and his team just outright rejected "The View" when the show reached out to have the governor appear.
DeSantis's deputy press secretary, Bryan Griffin, posted this on Twitter.

Here are some excerpts from his response:
Thanks for the invite, I understand that you are sending this request on behalf of your team.
But are the hosts of the View really interested in hearing from Governor DeSantis about all of the important work he is doing on behalf of Floridians to protect their health and livelihoods, to stand up for parents and children, and to defend freedom? Which of the below statements from the hosts of the View do you recommend our team consider when deciding if the interview will be a genuine pursuit of the truth? Or worth the time?
Griffin then goes on to list the various hosts of "The View" slandering the governor on the show.
- Joy Behar, August 2021: 'You're just short of calling [Governor DeSantis] a negligent, homicidal sociopath, because that's what he is.' She added: 'What is he doing? He's risking the lives of children, children's parents, their grandparents, anyone they may come into contact with, so he can appeal to his white supremacist base, so he can continue in his career and get reelected.'
- Sunny Hostin, June 2022: 'Death-Santis… I think he's a fascist and a bigot.
- Ana Navarro, April 2022 (on Governor DeSantis's policies): 'It's anti-Black, it's anti-gay, it's anti-LGBTQ+ community. And for some reason, the Republican base responds to it." And 'It's anti-American. It's what happens in Venezuela. It's what happens in Nicaragua.'
- Sunny Hostin, February 2022 (on Governor DeSantis's policies): 'It started with CRT. Let's remember that — and those are anti-history laws, anti-Black history laws, really," she said. 'If you start coming after Black people, what comes next, right? Of course the LGBTQ+ community, and then women, and then other marginalized groups.'
These ladies really, really hate DeSantis.
And DeSantis would have absolutely DEMOLISHED these harpies, assuming he could get a word in edgewise.
DeSantis refusing to give The View the time of day is the exactly appropriate response, and it's sure to drive Whoopi and company absolutely mad.
