Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is running for President, told a group of supporters in South Carolina on Tuesday he will remove “the woke” from the U.S. military if elected.
During his speech, he showed some parallels between how he’s run the state of Florida and how he wants to run the military if he’s elected President, focusing on eliminating things like DEI and vaccine mandates. “We need a military that is focused on being lethal, being ready and being capable and if there’s anybody’s agenda that gets in the way of that, that agenda needs to take a hike,” DeSantis said.
A few other parts of DeSantis’ military plan include not allowing things like Critical Race Theory to be taught at military academies and rejuvenating military recruitment.
