What matters is his voting record with Mitch McConnel
You don’t have a clue what his voting record was. You’re just another run of the mill tard piggy backing on what you read on Truth.

2015: DeSantis Effectively Voted Against Treating Currency Undervaluation As An Illegal Subsidy. In December 2015, DeSantis effectively voted against legislation that would have “allow[ed] climate change and human trafficking provisions in trade deals, and that would insist on the currency manipulation provisions included in the Senate amendments, defining currency undervaluation as an illegal subsidy and thereby making it subject to duty laws.” The underlying legislation was a conference report that would was a trade enforcement and customs bill. The vote was on a motion to recommit. The House rejected the motion by a vote of 172 to 239. [House Vote 692, 12/11/15; Congressional Quarterly, 12/11/15; Congressional Quarterly, 12/10/15; Congressional Actions, H.R. 644]
Senate Legislation Included A Currency Manipulation Provision From Sen. Schumer (D-NY), Which Would Potentially Impact China. According to Congressional Quarterly, “The Schumer provision amends the Tariff Act of 1930 to treat currency undervaluation as a direct or indirect export subsidy subject to countervailing or import duties if the Commerce Department finds subsidized imports are causing harm to U.S. companies. If Schumer’s provision becomes law, it would affect countries beyond those now engaged in talks for the Trans-Pacific Partnership pact. China, often cited as an active currency manipulator by those who follow trade, would face scrutiny under the provision if it becomes law.” [Congressional Quarterly, 5/14/15]
2015: Trump: China Is “The Number-One Abuser Of This Country,” And “It’s Through Currency Manipulation.” According to Trump at the November 10, 2015, Republican presidential debate, “TRUMP: Yes. Well, the currency manipulation they don’t discuss in the agreement, which is a disaster. If you look at the way China and India and almost everybody takes advantage of the United States -- China in particular, because they’re so good. It’s the number-one abuser of this country. And if you look at the way they take advantage, it’s through currency manipulation. It’s not even discussed in the almost 6,000-page agreement. It’s not even discussed.” [Washington Post, 11/10/15]
DeSantis Said He Opposed Tariffs
[Video] DeSantis: “I’m Not Somebody That Advocates Tariffs.” According to Ron DeSantis on Fox Business, “DESANTIS: Well, I think in the Congress, you know, I’m not somebody that advocates tariffs. I mean, I want to have lower barriers and I want to have free trade.” [Fox, 6/25/18]
