Comedienne Roseanne Barr gave a definitive answer to the question that has baffled leftists and left them befuddled and unable to speak: What is a woman?
Barr, 70, spoke to Piers Morgan on his show “Piers Morgan Uncensored” to promote her “81 Million Jokes” tour.
“Now listen, Roseanne: Let me ask you the most difficult question in the world, apparently: What is a woman?” Morgan asked.
Barr acted as if she hadn’t heard the question clearly, replying, “How much do I weigh?”
“No. What is a woman?” Morgan repeated, laughing.
“A woman is me,” Barr declared. “A woman is somebody whose breasts hang down to her stomach, and who has a prolapsed uterus from giving birth to five ungrateful little bastards who have never had to work for a thing in their goddamn lives. That’s what a woman is.”

“Can I provide a definition? No. I can’t,” Jackson answered.
“You can’t?” Blackburn said, surprised.
“Not in this context. I’m not a biologist,” Jackson persisted.
“Do you believe the meaning of the word ‘woman’ is so unclear and controversial that you can’t give me a definition?” Blackburn pressed.
“Senator, in my work as a judge what I do is I address disputes. If there’s a dispute about a definition, people make arguments and I look at the law and I decide,” Jackson dodged.
“The fact that you can’t give me a straight answer about something as fundamental as what a woman is underscores the dangers of the kinds of progressive education that we are hearing about,” Blackburn asserted.
The failure of leftists to answer the simple question of what a woman is intrigued so many people that The Daily Wire’s documentary “What Is A Woman” <a href="https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/254508/what-is-a-woman-documentary-passes-177m-views-on-twitter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">passed 177 million views</a> on Twitter in one week in June.

What Is A Woman

British television host <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/piers-morgan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Piers Morgan</a> took a moment to thank Meghan Markle when he stood up to accept an award at the Television and Radio Industries Club ceremony in London on Tuesday.
Morgan, host of &#8220;Piers Morgan: Uncensored,&#8221; took home the Interview of the Year prize for his <a href="https://theathletic.com/3917796/2022/11/21/cristiano-ronaldo-portugal-man-utd/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">one-on-one chat</a> with soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo. During that interview, Ronaldo was <a href="https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/37637391/cristiano-ronaldo-says-man-united-exit-bad-phase-career" target="_blank" rel="noopener">highly critical</a> of Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag — and within days of its airing, the star forward made a very public exit from the club.
And while Morgan took some time during his acceptance speech to acknowledge Ronaldo and thank him for agreeing to do the interview, he also reserved some praise for Markle.
&#8220;I want to thank Meghan Markle because, if you think about it, without her contribution to my career I would never have gone to TalkTV,&#8221; Morgan joked, adding, &#8220;I would never have been standing here with this award.&#8221;
Morgan was referencing his abrupt exit from his previous position as a host on ITV&#8217;s &#8220;Good Morning Britain&#8221; — a post he lost after a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/i-wouldnt-believe-it-if-she-read-me-the-weather-report-piers-morgan-furiously-rips-meghan-markle-after-oprah-interview" target="_blank" rel="noopener">heated on-air debate</a> with weatherman Alex Beresford over the bombshell interview Markle and husband Prince Harry gave to American television host Oprah Winfrey.

Responding to Markle&#8217;s claims that the Royal Family had been racist toward her and even Archie, her first child with Prince Harry, Beresford defended her and suggested that Morgan&#8217;s personal history with her was the real reason he had a problem with her comments.
&#8220;I understand that you’ve got a personal relationship with Meghan Markle and she cut you off. I understand that you don’t like Meghan Markle, you’ve made it so clear a number of times on this program, a number of times. She’s entitled to cut you off if she wants to,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Has she said anything about you since she cut you off? I don’t think she has. But yet you continue to trash her.&#8221;
Morgan responded by walking off the set, saying, &#8220;OK, I’m done with this. Sorry. You can trash me, mate, but not on my own show. See you later.&#8221;

Discussing men and boys competing in women&#8217;s sports with a trans activist from Oxford University, Piers Morgan called the practice “grotesquely unfair and unequal,” only for the activist to protest she had no idea that there was even a problem.
Morgan pointed out that he had invited the president of Oxford University LGBTQ+ Society to come on the program, but was rebuffed.
“That person did not come on your show because they have been subject to this consistent program of hate that I’ve been talking about,” trans activist Riz Possnett responded, adding, “The reason that other people don’t want to take up interviews like this or be on platforms like this is because of the hate campaign that we are being subjected to &#8230; “
“Here’s my problem with the rest of your colleagues,” Morgan stated. “They don’t want to debate because they don’t want to hear someone saying something they don’t like.”
“With regard to a debate: first of all, I don’t believe that trans lives should be a debate,” Possnett declared.
“No one’s debating trans lives,” Morgan asserted. “No one’s debating trans rights to fairness and equality. I&#8217;ve certainly never&#8230; I’ve only ever supported trans rights to fairness and equality.” Then he threw down the gauntlet: “But if you’re going to stand there now on television and say that you believe what’s happening now in women’s sport, for example, is anything but grotesquely unfair and unequal, then say so, if you genuinely believe it.”
“I think what’s grotesquely unfair and unequal is the violence and hatred that trans people are consistently facing in the media, in person, in public and online,” Possnett deflected.
“That wasn&#8217;t my question,” Morgan persisted. “Is it fair that trans athletes are now demolishing women born with female biological bodies at women’s sports. Is that fair? Yes or no?”
“This is a really boring point but I’m happy to answer it,” Possnett said.
“Give me a simple yes or no,” Morgan fired.
“That’s not happening,” Possnett insisted.
 &#8220;Oh, it’s not happening,” Morgan said sarcastically. “All right. You’re obviously not reading the papers. You’re not watching TV. You are totally oblivious to the reality of what&#8217;s happening. &#8230; Ignorance is bliss, right?&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
&quot;That&#39;s not happening&quot; says activist Riz Possnett, when Piers Morgan asks if trans athletes are eroding women&#39;s sports.

A segment of Fox Nation host <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/piers-morgan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Piers Morgan&#8217;s</a> show — &#8220;Piers Morgan: Uncensored&#8221; — went off the rails on Wednesday when the host and one of his guests dared to criticize performer <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sam-smith-slammed-for-satanic-overtly-sexual-performance-with-no-age-restrictions" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sam Smith&#8217;s</a> appearance.
Morgan hosted a conversation with author Douglas Murray and comedian James Barr, and when the topic turned to Smith&#8217;s recent controversial performances — which Morgan and Murray both panned — Barr lost his temper.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Murray began the conversation, saying that Smith had managed to keep people&#8217;s attention by first coming out as gay, and then as gender queer. &#8220;And then he said he was non-binary, and he said he didn&#8217;t know what it meant — well, of course he didn&#8217;t, because there&#8217;s no such thing.&#8221;
&#8220;They,&#8221; Barr interrupted, correcting Murray on Smith&#8217;s preferred pronouns.
&#8220;If you&#8217;re going to make everyone else distort the language, you should know what you&#8217;re talking about,&#8221; Murray continued.
Murray went on to compare Smith&#8217;s penchant for removing clothing onstage to other performers who have stripped down during performances, arguing that in the case of performers like Justin Timberlake or Rihanna, at least they looked good while doing it.

&#8220;Sam Smith is like pudgy and very ugly,&#8221; Murray added. &#8220;And so people look at it, and he looks ridiculous. And the problem is that he&#8217;s saying, &#8216;Don&#8217;t ridicule me,&#8217; but it&#8217;s hard not to ridicule when they present themselves as — ridiculous.&#8221;
Barr started to object, but Morgan jumped in: &#8220;I completely agree. Why say, &#8216;don&#8217;t ridicule me&#8217; when you deliberately make yourself look ridiculous?&#8221;
&#8220;No,&#8221; Barr said. &#8220;That is disgusting, it&#8217;s a completely disgusting rhetoric from both of you —&#8221;
&#8220;It is disgusting, yeah, we do find it disgusting,&#8221; Morgan replied, referring to Smith&#8217;s presentation.
&#8220;No, what you&#8217;re saying is disgusting,&#8221; Barr insisted.
&#8220;What? We&#8217;re allowed to find him disgusting,&#8221; Morgan objected.
&#8220;No, you are not!&#8221; Barr shouted back, to which Morgan replied, &#8220;Yes, I am.&#8221;
Barr insisted that Morgan could not &#8220;keep commenting all the time about what people look like,&#8221; but Morgan objected to that as well: &#8220;Yes, I can! If they&#8217;re going to dress like that on a stage in front of millions of people around the world, absolutely I can.&#8221;
Ignoring Morgan&#8217;s overall assertion, Barr thanked him for &#8220;getting the pronoun correct&#8221; — prompting Morgan to ask Barr whether he&#8217;d remembered to address his host properly.
&#8220;Hottest man in the world, Piers — according to some and yourself,&#8221; Barr replied.

&#8220;Nobody ever gets canceled for being too woke. So you can say the craziest thing, like &#8216;men can have babies&#8217; and then nobody will — even though people are thinking, &#8216;well, that&#8217;s kind of nuts,&#8217; nobody will say it. They&#8217;ll just fall in line,&#8221; Maher said.
&#8220;&#8216;Uh, yeah, exactly, that&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve always thought,'&#8221; Maher continued in sarcastic tones, prompting laughs from Morgan. &#8220;&#8216;Sure. I saw a dude who was glowing yesterday.&#8217; And that&#8217;s the problem.&#8221;
&#8220;Totally insane,&#8221; the host responded.
&#8220;Cowardice,&#8221; Maher countered.
&#8220;Yes, it is. It&#8217;s moral cowardice,&#8221; Morgan agreed, but Maher suggested it was also &#8220;intellectual cowardice.&#8221;
Morgan went on to point out that some people were not speaking up because they were afraid — and for good reason, because they had seen other people get canceled for pushing back against certain agendas.
&#8220;They&#8217;ve seen people around them literally getting canceled, getting shamed and abused —&#8221; Morgan continued, and Maher agreed. &#8220;Hounded out of jobs — they think, &#8216;I don&#8217;t want it to happen to me.'&#8221;
Maher&#8217;s appearance on &#8220;Uncensored&#8221; comes just days after Morgan joined the comedian for his Friday evening show on HBO — alongside <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/piers-morgan-torches-democrat-katie-porter-over-remarks-about-riley-gaines" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rep. Katie Porter</a> (D-CA) — where the three addressed a number of topics.
Among those topics was a discussion on trans-identifying TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney, who recently inked advertising deals with major brands like Anheuser Busch staple Bud Light and sportswear brand Nike — the latter of which really bothered Morgan.
&#8220;I said that for someone who identified as a gay man until last year to be sporting a women’s sports bra, despite having no breasts, as &#8216;they&#8217; pranced around like a clueless non-athlete, mimicking how a misogynist would scornfully depict a woman doing sport, struck me as a slap in the face to actual women,&#8221; Morgan reflected in a Monday <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/04/17/spineless-dems-now-look-anti-women/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">op-ed</a> for The New York Post.
He went on to note that, much to his surprise, Maher&#8217;s left-leaning audience appeared to agree with him. &#8220;It felt like a moment of reckoning, when an insane ideology hits the buffers of basic common sense, and the public knows it,&#8221; he wrote.

Fox Nation host Piers Morgan responded on Monday to his Friday appearance – alongside Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA) — on comedian Bill Maher&#8217;s show, saying that he believed &#8220;the worm has turned&#8221; on companies bowing to the transgender community in their advertising.
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/piers-morgan-torches-democrat-katie-porter-over-remarks-about-riley-gaines" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Morgan</a> delivered an <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/04/17/spineless-dems-now-look-anti-women/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">op-ed</a> in The New York Post on the subject, noting in part that he had been surprised to see Maher&#8217;s liberal audience responding positively to his comments suggesting that some trans-identifying activists — specifically TikTok personality <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/clumsy-and-stupid-matt-walsh-rips-anheuser-busch-statement-on-dylan-mulvaney-controversy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dylan Mulvaney</a> — were making a mockery of biological women.
Explaining that he found Mulvaney&#8217;s partnership with <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/stop-giving-them-your-money-nike-partners-with-dylan-mulvaney-ignites-fury-online" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sportswear brand Nike</a> far more problematic than the now-infamous Bud Light cans, Morgan argued that the TikTok star&#8217;s intentionally-exaggerated &#8220;prancing&#8221; made a mockery of women.
&#8220;I said that for someone who identified as a gay man until last year to be sporting a women’s sports bra, despite having no breasts, as &#8216;they&#8217; pranced around like a clueless non-athlete, mimicking how a misogynist would scornfully depict a woman doing sport, struck me as a slap in the face to actual women,&#8221; Morgan wrote. &#8220;And to my surprise, given how liberal Maher’s audience tends to be, my comments were met with loud applause.&#8221;
Morgan said that Porter had attempted to push back – but that the audience had again applauded him when he observed, &#8220;Nobody’s questioning trans rights to fairness and equality, what I would question is where trans rights to fairness and equality begin to erode or even destroy, as we’re seeing in women’s sport, the rights of women to fairness and equality.&#8221;
Porter had tried again, stating that she &#8220;disagreed&#8221; with former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines — who has recently become a target of the trans community for objecting to trans-identifying biological males competing against women in sports.

&#8220;What do you disagree with, out of interest? What is it she’s said that’s actually wrong?&#8221; Morgan asked.
Porter said that Gaines was only speaking up to &#8220;get likes&#8221; on social media – but Morgan objected, saying that she had been standing up for fairness and equality for women in sports.
&#8220;Riley is speaking up for herself. And that is her prerogative and I respect her free speech,&#8221; Porter replied.
&#8220;I think she’s speaking up for pretty much every female athlete in the world,&#8221; Morgan said, prompting applause.
In his op-ed, Morgan reflected on the exchange, saying, &#8220;It felt like a moment of reckoning, when an insane ideology hits the buffers of basic common sense, and the public knows it.&#8221;

The king ascended the throne in September 2022 following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, at 96. Charles formally becomes the head of the monarchy when he&#8217;s crowned at London&#8217;s Westminster Abbey.
Relations between the royal couple and the family have not been the best following the Sussex&#8217;s initial decision to step down from their senior roles in January 2020. In 2021, the former &#8220;Suits&#8221; actress accused the royal family of racism during her tell-all interview on CBS with Oprah Winfrey.

Porn actress Stormy Daniels wants to testify against former President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Trump</a> and hopes his Manhattan trial ends with him in jail. 
Daniels joined TV personality Piers Morgan for a 90-minute interview to be broadcast on Fox Nation Thursday, where she revealed her feelings on the historic case against the former president. Trump was arrested on Tuesday and charged with 34 felony counts for his alleged hush money payments to Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign, making him the first ex-president to be charged with a crime. Daniels claims she had consensual sex with Trump in 2006, an allegation Trump denies.
“It’s daunting, but I look forward to it,” Daniels said when asked about the grand jury calling her in to testify. “I have nothing to hide. I’m the only one that has been telling the truth, and you can’t shame me any more.”
“So you want to have them [ask you to testify],” Morgan pressed. 
“I do,” Daniels said. “Having them call me in and put me on the stand legitimizes my story and who I am, and if they don’t, it almost feels like they’re hiding me.”

Daniels added that she believes Trump deserves jail time, but not for “his crimes against me.” 
“I feel like the other things that he has done, if he is found guilty, absolutely,” he should serve jail time, Daniels said. “If he doesn’t, it opens the door for other people to think they can get away with that, and worse.”

Trump pleaded not guilty on Tuesday to all charges of falsifying business records brought against him by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. In a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-delivers-feisty-mar-a-lago-speech-after-new-york-arraignment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">speech</a> at Mar-a-Lago following his arraignment, Trump railed against Bragg and called the judge assigned to the case a “Trump-hating judge.”

After the indictment was unsealed, critics slammed Bragg for putting together a weak case against Trump to score political points. For Trump to be convicted of a felony, prosecutors must prove that his alleged falsifying of business records — which is a misdemeanor — took place while another crime was committed. Legal experts, however, pointed out that the indictment provides little to no explanation of what the other crime is, The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-indictment-is-vague-about-a-key-requirement-the-underlying-crime-that-would-make-it-a-felony" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. 
“This appears to me to be a very weak aspect of the indictment and associated statement of facts, given how critical the ‘intent to commit another crime’ element is to NYC’s case,” said Robert Kelner, an election lawyer with Covington &amp; Burling LLP. “The indictment is surprisingly vague in articulating what the other crime is, though it certainly appears they are relying on an alleged federal campaign finance law violation. If that’s the violation [former Trump lawyer Michael] Cohen admitted to in the federal case, as appears to be so, it’s an awfully thin reed to rely upon because the Cohen case itself was weak, in my view.”

Florida Governor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/ron-desantis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ron DeSantis</a> responded in an interview that aired Thursday evening to two recent salacious media stories that claimed he ate pudding with his bare hands and that he authorized force feeding of detainees at Guantanamo Bay.
The Daily Beast <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/ron-desantis-book-tour-looks-like-amateur-hour?ref=scroll" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> last week that an anonymous source claimed that DeSantis once &#8220;enjoyed a chocolate pudding dessert&#8221; on a private jet &#8220;by eating it with three of his fingers.&#8221;
DeSantis made the remarks during an interview on Fox Nation with Piers Morgan, who mocked the report as being ridiculous.
&#8220;It was a very serious allegation,&#8221; Morgan said sarcastically. “In fact, I congratulated the journalist who broke it on the new &#8216;Watergate.’ But I have to put it to you, Governor. Have you ever eaten a chocolate pudding with three fingers?&#8221;
After laughing at the story, DeSantis responded, &#8220;I don&#8217;t remember ever doing that. I&#8217;m telling you. Maybe when I was a kid.&#8221;
&#8220;You know, there&#8217;s a lot of people when they go at you, sometimes they have like really good ammunition, like you&#8217;re a crook, you did this, you did that,&#8221; DeSantis continued. &#8220;For me, they&#8217;re talking about pudding like, is that really the best you got? Okay, bring it on.&#8221;

&#8220;One of the things they said was that you authorized the use of force feeding [for detainees who were on hunger strike],&#8221; Morgan responded.

&#8220;That&#8217;s not true,&#8221; DeSantis immediately fired back. &#8220;So I was a junior officer, I didn&#8217;t have authority to authorize anything. There may have been a commander that would have done feeding if someone was going to die. But that was not something that I would have even had authority to do.&#8221;
When asked again if the report was wrong, DeSantis responded: &#8220;Yeah, absolutely.&#8221;

Ron DeSantis

Florida Governor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/ron-desantis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ron DeSantis</a> laughed off criticisms in an interview this week from a few critics aligned with some of his political rivals who claim that he does not have enough of a personality to be the next President of the United States.
DeSantis made the remarks during an interview that aired Thursday evening with Piers Morgan on Fox Nation.
&#8220;One of the other criticisms that is used against you about your personality, probably because some people don&#8217;t know you very well, because those who do, who I&#8217;ve spoken to, tell a different story,&#8221; Morgan said. &#8220;But you&#8217;re being depicted in some of the national media as very intense, quite boring, charisma devoid.&#8221;
Morgan said that one critic who reviewed DeSantis&#8217; book said that DeSantis &#8220;would launch any charm offensive unarmed.&#8221;
&#8220;Well, I appreciate the knocks on the book, it&#8217;s the number one book in America far and away,&#8221; DeSantis responded after chuckling. &#8220;I&#8217;ve sold more than any non-president in the history of the country in terms of the first week, so we&#8217;ve been doing pretty good, a lot of people like it.&#8221;
DeSantis then addressed the criticisms from some of the political opposition, saying that they are mad that he does not focus on being part of the social clubs that political elites operate in as he instead focuses on doing his job and then going home and being with his family.
&#8220;So here&#8217;s the thing, I think these are people who are in the political class, journalist class, politicians in, like, D.C. in particular, they get mad I don&#8217;t do the cocktail parties,&#8221; DeSantis said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t like rubbing elbows with other people. I like doing my job and then spending time with my family. That&#8217;s just what I do.&#8221;
&#8220;A lot of the people that are criticizing, you know, they would say, &#8216;Oh, he doesn&#8217;t do well with donors. He doesn&#8217;t glad hand with them,’” he said. &#8220;And yet I raise more money than any non-presidential candidate in the history of America! Are you kidding me?&#8221;

&#8220;So we tend to do well, but I do think that, you know, I deal better with regular people than I do with some of the people in the political class, and I think that has been true for the entire time I&#8217;ve been around,&#8221; he added.

Florida Democratic Party Chairwoman <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/nikki-fried" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nikki Fried</a> took aim at Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) after he sat down for an interview with British television host Piers Morgan for his show, &#8220;Piers Morgan Uncensored.&#8221;
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/democrats-turn-on-desantis-challenger-for-daring-to-celebrate-mask-free-flight" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fried</a> lost the 2022 Democratic nomination to ex-Republican Charlie Crist — who then lost the gubernatorial race to DeSantis in a blowout — but she took a moment on Tuesday to mock DeSantis for doing the interview in the first place, suggesting that he had only done it to resuscitate a flagging campaign.
&#8220;Ron DeSantis retreated to a flipping @piersmorgan interview to try to save his failing campaign,&#8221; Fried tweeted. &#8220;Bahahahahahahaa. Hahahahahahahaa. Bahahahahahahah.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
DeSantis has not even officially declared his intention to seek the 2024 Republican Presidential nomination — although a number of sources have indicated that he is likely to do so — but he hinted during the interview that he might be <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/ron-desantis-i-have-what-it-takes-to-be-president-and-i-can-beat-biden-i-wouldve-fired-fauci/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ready to run</a> and win against President Joe Biden.
&#8220;If I were to run, I’m running against Biden, Like we [he and Trump] are competing for the Republican [nomination], potentially, I get that, but ultimately, you know, the guy I’m gonna focus on is Biden because I think he’s failed the country. I think the country wants a change. I think they want a fresh start and a new direction and so we’ll be very vocal about that. I spent a lot of time in Florida fighting back,&#8221; DeSantis told Morgan.
DeSantis also made it clear that he believed he&#8217;d be able to defeat Biden in a presidential race.
Morgan previewed the interview in an <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/03/21/ron-desantis-opens-fire-on-trumps-character-chaotic-style/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">op-ed</a>, saying it was &#8220;clear that the governor has had enough of Trump’s constant baiting and felt ready to take him on.&#8221;

Editor&#8217;s Note: This article has been updated after the New York Post removed from its story certain quotes that it erroneously attributed to DeSantis.
Florida Governor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/ron-desantis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ron DeSantis</a> punched back at former President Donald Trump after enduring months of attacks from the man he appears increasingly likely to challenge for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
DeSantis made the remarks in an interview with Piers Morgan on Fox Nation’s “Piers Morgan Uncensored” that is set to air later this week.
The remarks from DeSantis come after the former president has launched multiple attacks on the governor since the midterm elections ended, including trying to brand the governor with derogatory names, promoting <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-promotes-claim-that-desantis-was-grooming-high-school-girls-with-alcohol-as-a-teacher">baseless</a> claims that DeSantis is a groomer, and <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/trump-amplifies-false-rumor-george-soros-endorsed-ron-desantis-1782887" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claiming</a> that Democrat billionaire George Soros endorsed DeSantis.
DeSantis was slammed by the former president on Monday after he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/desantis-responds-to-rumored-trump-indictment-by-soros-funded-prosecutor" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spoke out</a> against the prosecution of Trump by the Manhattan District Attorney&#8217;s Office investigation, calling it &#8220;an example of pursuing a political agenda and weaponizing the office.&#8221; DeSantis took a swipe at Trump while making the remarks, saying, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know what goes into paying hush money to a porn star to secure silence over some type of alleged affair. I just I can&#8217;t speak to that.&#8221;
Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-attacks-desantis-after-gov-slammed-soros-funded-d-a-cited-hush-money-minors-or-a-man-might-accuse-desantis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">responded</a> on social media by writing: “Ron DeSanctimonious will probably find out about FALSE ACCUSATIONS &amp; FAKE STORIES sometime in the future, as he gets older, wiser, and better known, when he’s unfairly and illegally attacked by a woman, even classmates that are ‘underage’ (or possibly a man!).”
While talking to Morgan at the Governor’s Mansion in Tallahassee, DeSantis gave his strongest indication yet that he intends to enter the race for president.
“If I were to run, I’m running against Biden, Like we [he and Trump] are competing for the Republican [nomination], potentially, I get that, but ultimately, you know, the guy I’m gonna focus on is Biden because I think he’s failed the country,&#8221; DeSantis said. &#8220;I think the country wants a change. I think they want a fresh start and a new direction and so we’ll be very vocal about that. I spent a lot of time in Florida fighting back.”
When asked if he thinks he can beat Biden in a presidential race, DeSantis responded, “I think so.”
Morgan <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/03/21/ron-desantis-opens-fire-on-trumps-character-chaotic-style/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> in an op-ed describing the upcoming interview that it was &#8220;clear that the governor has had enough of Trump’s constant baiting and felt ready to take him on.&#8221;

When asked about differences between himself and Trump, DeSantis said that there were several.
&#8220;The approach to COVID was different. I would have fired somebody like Fauci,&#8221; DeSantis said. &#8220;I think he got way too big for his britches, and I think he did a lot of damage.&#8221;
“I also think just in terms of my approach to leadership, I get personnel in the government who have the agenda of the people and share our agenda,&#8221; he <a href="https://flvoicenews.com/desantis-i-have-what-it-takes-to-be-president-and-i-wouldve-fired-fauci/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">continued</a>. &#8220;You bring your own agenda in you’re gone. We’re just not gonna have that. So, the way we run the government, I think, is no daily drama, focus on the big picture, and put points on the board, and I think that’s something that’s very important.&#8221;
DeSantis laughed off Trump&#8217;s derogatory nicknames, saying: “I don’t know how to spell the sanctimonious one.&#8221;
&#8220;I don’t really know what it means, but I kinda like it, it’s long, it’s got a lot of vowels,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We’ll go with that, that’s fine. I mean you can call me whatever you want, just as long as you also call me a winner because that’s what we’ve been able to do in Florida, is put a lot of points on the board and really take this state to the next level.”
“To me, it’s just background noise,” he said. “It’s not important for me to be fighting with people on social media. It’s not accomplishing anything for the people I represent. So, we really just focus on knocking out victories, day after day, and if I got involved in all the undertow, I would not be able to be an effective governor. So, I don’t think it’s something that makes sense for me.”
DeSantis said that he had a good relationship with Trump, which started because he repeatedly defended the president over false allegations that his campaign colluded with Russia in 2016.
&#8220;I would go on TV, and I would defend him when it wasn’t popular and when it was kinda politically risky, but I just thought it was the right thing to do, and then I thought that he had good ideas for the country,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And then when I became governor, his last two years as president, we worked very well together. He had a place in Florida and worked well with us to serve our state.”
DeSantis said that Trump&#8217;s tune changed dramatically after he dominated in the midterm elections while the anticipated red wave really did not materialize across the country the way many thought it would.
“My view though is we should want the country to do well,” DeSantis said. “I want other Republicans to do well. I want them to eclipse me. We’re setting a great standard in Florida, have everyone up their game.”
DeSantis said that as a leader, it was important to look at America&#8217;s Founding Fathers for the type of character that is needed to be president.
&#8220;It’s not saying that you don’t ever make a mistake in your personal life, but I think what type of character are you bringing?&#8221; he said. &#8220;So, somebody who really set the standard is George Washington because he always put the Republic over his own personal interest. When we won the American Revolution, Washington surrendered his sword. King George III said he’s the greatest man in the world if he gives up power. I think the person is more about how you handle your public duties and the kind of character you bring to that endeavor.”
“Let’s put the country first rather than worry about any personalities or any type of individual … at the end of the day, I’m a vessel for the aspirations of the people I represent,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It’s not about me, as Ronald Reagan said, ‘there’s no limit to what you can accomplish if you don’t care who gets the credit.’”
DeSantis said that he has not made a final decision about whether he will run for president during this cycle.
“We’re gonna put a lot of points on the board. And then we’ll see how the dust settles after that, but I can tell you a lot of people realize the country is not going in the right direction and believe that what we’ve been able to do in Florida, if we can apply that nationally, we can get America back on track and back on our foundations,” he said. “And so, I take that very seriously. It’s humbling that people have come to me and asked me to do it or urged me to do it. So, stay tuned.”
