Ron DeSantis accepted singing ‘Let’s Go Brandon’, Donald Trump says treatment was worse

Gov. Ron DeSantis sang the famous “Let’s Go Brandon” at a rally in Palm Beach on Wednesday, mentioning that former President Donald Trump was worse than the jibe directed at President Joe Biden.

“Look at Biden, the Brandon administration,” said DeSantis, who introduced a “Let’s Go Brandon” chant in the hall.

“You know how that started,” DeSantis asked, seemingly rhetorically. “It was at a NASCAR race and they were doing an interview with a driver. And his name was Brandon. And people started singing very colorful language about Joe Biden.

What the Governor was referring to was an interview with Talladega after Brandon Brown won a race on Oct. 2, which was broadcast on the NBC Sports network. Some members of the crowd started singing “F ** k Joe Biden.”

The Governor had no issue with unexpurgated phrases, instead restoring his critical media framing skills.

“This is what it is,” DeSantis added. “First of all, they said it was worse about Trump in four years. They sang it.”

“You have a reporter from NBC,” DeSantis said. “He was trying to cover for Biden, so he said they sang ‘Let’s go Brandon.’ This is a lie. ”

“This song has had a life of its own,” DeSantis added, “because it exposes the dishonesty of these corporate reporters.”

DeSantis made the comments at the end of a rally in which he proposed election security improvements, but discussed several other topics in a speech that seemed to be a preview of the 2022 stump message from the Governor.

The “Let’s Go Brandon” chant is, of course, nothing new. DeSantis ’embrace of it comes after many other Republican elected officials, including Floridians, have found creative ways to incorporate it into discourse.

As the Associated Press reported, Rep. Bill Posey of Florida an Oct. 21 House floor speech with the phrase “Let’s go, Brandon!”
