Fox News
Republican presidential candidate Gov. Ron DeSantis sparked an uproar over the weekend for comments he made about former President Donald Trump's base.
"A movement can’t be about the personality of one individual," he said. "The movement has got to be about what are you trying to achieve on behalf of the American people, and that’s got to be based in principle."

"Because if you’re not rooted in principle, if all we are is listless vessels that are just supposed to follow, you know, whatever happens to come down the pike on Truth Social every morning, that’s not going to be a durable movement," he continued during an interview with the Florida Standard, referring to Trump’s social media website.
