Floridians “are not buying what Joe Biden is selling,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) told reporters ahead of the president’s abortion-focused visits to Tampa, Florida, on Tuesday.
“His policies have caused families to suffer with higher prices and higher interest rates, and now he’s coming down to try to support a constitutional amendment that will mandate abortion up until the moment of birth, that will eliminate parental consent for minors, and that is written in a way that is intentionally designed to deceive voters,” the governor continued. “So all I can tell you is Floridians are not buying what Joe Biden is selling, and in November, we’re going to play an instrumental role in sending him back to Delaware where he belongs.”
Biden spoke at Hillsborough Community College’s Dale Mabry campus and blamed former President Donald Trump for the Supreme Court’s 2022 Dobbs decision, which overturned Roe v. Wade, ending an invented constitutional “right” to abortion, and sent the issue back to the individual states. Abortion has been the Biden campaign’s number-one priority ahead of November, with Democrats hoping to galvanize women and young voters, while distracting from Biden’s border and economic failures.

Biden visited Florida specifically to galvanize voters before a six-week abortion limit takes effect next month. The Florida Supreme Court upheld the state’s 15-week abortion restriction earlier this month, which cleared the way for the six-week restriction to take effect. At the same time, the Florida Supreme Court also allowed a proposed amendment that would enshrine the “right” to abortion in the state constitution to appear on the ballot in November.
“But know this, as long as I have the power of the presidency, it’s never going to happen. I mean it,” he added. “If Congress ever passes a ban, I will veto that ban. Elect the Democratic Congress — Kamala and I will make Roe v. Wade the law of the land again.”
Biden joined Florida Democratic Party chairperson Nikki Fried for a small event with activists and union officials after making the 15-minute speech at the college. During that event, Biden — a self-professed Catholic — made the sign of the cross while Fried decried the state’s upcoming six-week abortion limit.
