Yesterday Hillary Clinton claimed that Trump supporters were ‘cult members’ and said they needed to be formally deprogrammed from supporting Trump.

Watch below:

 
When DeSantis was on CNBC this morning he was asked about this and completely rejected it, saying these are patriotic Americans who want to see the country do well:

I think he would have said more had he not been interrupted by the host. But DeSantis went on to suggest that he believes the bulk of Trump supporters may be open to a better candidate and pointed out the big differences between he and Trump:

“There’s a lot of differences; this is all fair game. These folks get it, they want to see the country do well. Some people will be with Trump not matter what. But I think the bulk of the people are people who appreciate what he did but also understand he’s got limitations in terms of his electability. He would be a lame duck on day one if he could even get elected. I think he’d have major problems with personnel. And of course he didn’t deliver on his core promises to drain the swamp, get Mexico to pay for the border wall or to eliminate the debt. He added $7.8 trillion to the debt. So that’s all fair game and we’re going to be able to make that case. And I’ve delivered on these policies better than anybody.”
