Ron DeSantis: “I’m somebody that volunteered to serve, inspired by September 11.”
MILWAUKEE, Wis. – During the first Republican presidential primary debate tonight, Ron DeSantis said:
“I’m somebody that volunteered to serve inspired by September 11. And I deployed to Iraq, alongside US Navy SEALs in places like Fallujah, Ramadi. It’s something that I think has taught me… you know, when you go in that type of environment, anything you have – your personal agenda – you check it at the door. You go there, and it’s about focusing on the mission, above all else. Guys come together and they get it done. That’s how I would view being the President of the United States. It’s not about me. It’s not about all these other side issues. My sole focus will be on your future and reversing this country’s decline.”
