DeSantis campaign spokesperson Christina Pushaw – yes, that Christina Pushaw – responded with a picture of DeSantis from when he served in the U.S. Navy Reserve, the idea being that DeSantis is patriotic because he served in the military, unlike Donald Trump, who got out of the Vietnam War draft due to bad feet and being in college.
