President Joe Biden was quick to seize on the technical difficulties of Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R-FL) campaign launch on Twitter Spaces with Elon Musk. He pounced on the opportunity in a fundraising effort for The Biden-Harris campaign.
Biden tweeted minutes after the campaign announcement was expected to go live. "This link works," he wrote, directing users to a Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris reelection fund. DeSantis's audio-only event appeared to be going in and out of service before the discussion was moved to a new Twitter Space.
