DeSantis called the claim &#8220;very bizarre.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;First of all, Florida had less excess mortality than California or New York,&#8221; DeSantis said. &#8220;Part of that is because states like California had excess mortality derived from the lockdown policy, which is really, really avoidable mortality.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/trumps-bizarre-reaction-desantis-announcement-sparks-confusion-online\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>TRUMP&#8217;S BIZARRE REACTION TO DESANTIS&#8217; ANNOUNCEMENT SPARKS CONFUSION ONLINE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But if he thinks Cuomo handled it better, that\u2019s an indication if something like this were to happen again, he would double down and do what he did in March of 2020,&#8221; DeSantis said on the Ben Shapiro Show.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That was a difficult situation. We didn&#8217;t have all the facts, and people can kind of understand if you did things that may not have worked out,&#8221; the GOP presidential contender said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But we all have to sit here today in 2023, look back on March of 2020 and say, &#8216;Faucism was wrong. Faucism was destructive. Faucism has set us on this path with the CARES Act and the Fed printing money, creating inflation, and creating some of the economic problems that we have today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So, if you could do it again, would he do the same thing?&#8221; DeSantis added. &#8220;I sure hope not.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis also said Fauci &#8220;should&#8217;ve been fired&#8221; by Trump while he was president and that the former president &#8220;responded&#8221;
