Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis would have “fired” former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci if he was president during the COVID-19 pandemic, he tells Piers Morgan in a Fox Nation interview that airs March 23.

DeSantis, regarded the undeclared top challenger to Donald Trump’s bid for a third consecutive Republican nomination to run for president in 2024, was asked by Morgan to differentiate himself from the former president.
