DeSantis calls a legal complaint against his campaign a ‘farce’ as he pushes toward Iowa caucuses
Associated PressMASON CITY, Iowa — Ron DeSantis wrinkled his face as he talked to reporters Tuesday and declared a Federal Elections Commission complaint filed against his presidential campaign “a farce.” “I mean, give me a break,” DeSantis said after headlining a morning campaign event in Iowa. “I wasn’t even aware of any of that,” said 54-year-old retired school superintendent Jerry Buseman, a DeSantis supporter who traveled 30 minutes to see him in Mason City. In its complaint to the Federal Elections Commission, the nonpartisan watchdog group Campaign Legal Center accuses DeSantis of breaking campaign finance law by communicating about ad spending decisions by Never Back Down. The AP reported last week that multiple people familiar with DeSantis’ political network said that he and his wife Casey had expressed concerns about the messaging of Never Back Down and were specifically frustrated after the group took down a TV ad criticizing Haley for allowing a Chinese manufacturer into South Carolina when she was governor.
