Pro-Trump Fox News host Maria Bartiromo tells DeSantis he's losing 'because of the corruption'

Fox News host Maria Bartiromo, who has supported former President Donald Trump, told Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) he was losing the Republican presidential primary "because of the corruption."

During a Sunday interview on Fox News, Bartiromo told DeSantis he was about 30 points behind Trump in recent polls.

"I think one of the reasons that Donald Trump is in the lead is because of the corruption and the unfairness of our justice system," Bartiromo opined. "I want to know what you're going to do. What are you going to do about the fact that the FBI worked with Twitter to censor information, amplify lies and suppress truth? What are you going to do about this influence peddling that we see is in plain sight that the Biden family has been doing allegedly, for now, more than a decade?"

For his part, DeSantis did not say if he would end investigations into Trump if he is elected.

"We will end the weaponization of government," he insisted. "And that's, of course, a new FBI director on day one. That's a difference between me and Donald Trump. He says the jury's still out on FBI Director Wray."

DeSantis vowed to "clean house at the Department of Justice."

"And, you know, I look back at like the Hunter Biden censorship, which was a huge, huge deal to happen in the 2020 election," he added. "And yet, you know, those were Donald Trump's own agencies that were colluding with big tech. I would never allow that to happen. I would fire those people immediately."
