Ron DeSantis Asks Sean Hannity to Arrange a Debate Between Him and Trump

Florida Governor and Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis asked Fox News anchor Sean Hannity to arrange a debate between him and former President Donald Trump ruing an appearance on Hannity’s show Wednesday night.

Hannity welcomed the candidate to the program by musing that he was “still getting a lot of reaction to the debate” the television personality moderated between DeSantis and California Governor Gavin Newsom and asked DeSantis if he though President Joe Biden would ultimately be the Democratic nominee come next November.

“Well, Sean, I don’t think we’ve spoken since that debate, and the reaction that I’ve gotten has been incredible in terms of obviously being able to show that freedom works and the California models of failure, what that means for the country. But people appreciated the way you set it up, and they said it was the most substantive debate that they’ve seen in this entire election cycle, and so kudos to you for doing it,” began DeSantis before throwing down the gauntlet. “So I’m glad we were able to get that done, and just know if you want to do other debates — Nikki Haley and me, I’m in, Donald Trump, and me, I’m in — so just say the word. You’ve shown that you can do it in a way that I think really helps the voters. So I’m game. Just let me know.”

“Okay, those are two. Do you have any more on your list? Maybe Joe Manchin, He’s going on a two month tour. Anybody else on your list that you’d like to do?” replied an amused Hannity.

Haley and DeSantis remain the only two non-Trump candidates to so much as consistently hit double digits in Republican primary polls, while the frontrunner has refused to participate in the debates, although he has found the time to show up for several townhall events with Hannity.
