<p>Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis addressed the issue of fatherlessness in America — during a recent live interview — calling it a factor behind many of the nation&#8217;s problems.</p>
<p>DeSantis shared the comments during a live <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZdvyuy_IrE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview</a> with Dave Rubin shared by &#8220;The Rubin Report&#8221; on Wednesday.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;If you look at all the different problems society could deal with, a huge number of them are rooted in kids growing up without having a father in the home,&#8221; DeSantis said.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Part of it is sending a message. Men, meet your responsibilities. You have a responsibility,&#8221; the governor added.</p>
<p>DeSantis also address his desire to make a difference in elected office through his role as governor in Florida.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;There are people who get involved in elected office to be able to enjoy the accouterments of office, to be able to have a title. And then there are people who get in because they actually want to do something and make a difference. I&#8217;m the latter,&#8221; DeSantis shared.</p>
<p>The governor received a standing ovation from the live audience for his remarks about the people of Florida supporting his efforts to stand for freedom.</p>
<p>&#8220;When you stand up and you stand in that fire and you fight back for people, man, they will have your back. They will support you. That&#8217;s what we&#8217;ve shown in the state of Florida,&#8221; DeSantis told Rubin.</p>

<p>The governor also highlighted his battle over COVID-19 restrictions, calling out Dr. Anthony Fauci&#8217;s calls for lockdowns.</p>
<p>&#8220;We were the first big state to give every parent the ability to send their kid to school in-person way back in 2020,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;Fauci opposed us having kids in school. He opposed what we were doing. When we had businesses open and protecting people&#8217;s jobs and were having these events, he opposed us every step of the way,&#8221; DeSantis added. &#8220;That wasn&#8217;t based on data because the schooling was obvious, that you needed to have the kids in school. It was based more on ideology.&#8221;</p>
<p>Rubin, who formerly hosted his program in California, made headlines in December when he announced plans to leave the “dystopian nightmare” of California for Florida.</p>
<p>Rubin personally thanked California Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom as the reason he chose to leave the Golden State.</p>
<p>The host also tagged DeSantis in his announcement, referring to his new home as “the free state of Florida,” and noting he would, “See you soon.”</p>
