*Florida First Lady Casey DeSantis has been labeled “America’s Karen” by former Rep. David Jolly (R-FL) and conservative political commentator Tara Setmayer.
The duo appeared on Jonathan Capehart‘s MSNBC Saturday show and took aim at Casey after she released an advertisement called “Mamas For DeSantis.” The mamas are reportedly critical of the Biden administration’s push for transgendering children as part of fringe queer ideology.
“In America, we’ve witnessed a lot and put up with enough,” DeSantis says in the video, Fox News reports. “We’ve been forced into silence, into compliance, told that we must trust the science. We have been told that we must deny truth, back down, and look the other way.”
“But enough is enough,” she continues. “When you come after our kids, we fight back. Because there’s nothing we won’t do to protect our children.”
She also clapped back at Biden seemingly suggesting during LGBTQ Pride Month that America’s children belong to the government.

Casey says in the video … “They’re not yours. We will not allow you to exploit their innocence to advance your agenda. We are no longer silent. We are united. And we have finally found our fighter.”
Setmayer slammed Casey for thinking she is “Jackie O reincarnated.”
“Casey DeSantis is a fairly compelling political figure in Florida and now nationally. For many, she’s the brighter side to Florida’s angry governor. For others, she’s become America’s Karen,” Jolly said on MSNBC Saturday, Mediaite reports. “And I think that’s the ultimate disconnect here with a campaign that needs to embrace more constituencies to get to the White House.”

“Look she is a more effective messenger than Ron DeSantis. But if all she is doing is amplifying the wrong message, she’s actually clarifying Ron DeSantis weaknesses,” he added. “So as I like to say, it doesn’t matter if it’s presented in heels or boots, the DeSantis doctrine is a losing one, and we’re going to learn that the more Casey gets out there.”
“She needs to stop trying to measure the great drapes in the White House and think that she’s some kind of Jackie O reincarnated,” Setmayer concluded.
