DeSantis previously refused to condemn Nazi flags at another Orlando protest in February, The Jerusalem
Post noted. Videos of the event circulated by local media outlets showed swastika flags at a gathering held on a highway
overpass in the city, where protesters also reportedly shouted antisemitic slurs.
"We're not playing their game," the governor said at the time, according to CNN.
DeSantis claimed that requests for him to denounce the gathering were attempts to smear him. Other lawmakers,
including Republican Senator Rick Scott and Democratic Representative Val Demings, did denounce the protest in official
statements. DeSantis has also not issued a comment on this latest incident near Disney World.
