Ron DeSantis refuses to say what he'd do if one of his kids is gay or trans: 'We'll leave that between my wife and I'

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, joined by his wife Casey and his children, walk the Fourth of July parade in. Wolfeboro, New Hampshire.Andrew Lichtenstein/Corbis via Getty Images Ron DeSantis refused to say how he would respond if one of his children is gay. DeSantis has fought to pass restrictions in Florida on how gender identity and other topics can be taught. But when Time Magazine's Molly Ball pressed him on his own family, DeSantis shut her down. Both as governor of Florida and as a presidential candidate, Ron DeSantis has made anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric and legislation a key part of his public platform.Among other things, he signed a slew of anti-transgender rights measures into law, launched a war with Disney over his so-called Don't Say Gay bill, and his presidential campaign recently tweeted a widely condemned anti-LGBTQ video.In short, he's tried to make a name for himself in large part by attacking the sexuality and gender of other people's children and pushing laws that would restrict both.
