"Things like terrorism are still very real. It's even realer when you have an open border that almost eight million people have come across. Do you not think our enemies are exploring that border?"
DeSantis further emphasized his unwavering support for Israel and his opposition to the resettlement of refugees from the Gaza Strip in the United States, a proposal that has garnered support from some left-wing Democrats.
He pointed out, "You have people like AOC and the left-wingers that want the United States to bring in hundreds of thousands of refugees from the Gaza Strip.

DeSantis highlights the security concerns and partisan divisions coming to the forefront as the 2024 presidential election season unfolds.
The Florida Gov. also expressed, "They elected Hamas in Gaza. A lot of them were cheering in the streets when the attacks happened. They weren't Hamas members; they were just normal people, and I remember from 9/11 in 2001, Palestinian Arabs cheering when the twin towers were brought down. That was the worst terrorist attack we ever had, and they were out celebrating."
In terms of the 2024 GOP presidential primary, DeSantis found himself trailing the former President, Donald Trump, who maintained a substantial lead in the polls as they approached the November election. Trump consistently held a double-digit advantage over the Florida governor.
