A staffer working on the Ron DeSantis presidential campaign has been fired after he allegedly created and then retweeted a pro-DeSantis video celebrating his anti-LGBTQ+ legislative accomplishments that also included Nazi imagery.
According to Axios, Nate Hochman, a speechwriter on the DeSantis campaign and a former writer for National Review, “created the video on his own and shared it through a pro-DeSantis Twitter account, according to a person familiar with the matter.
Hochman then retweeted the video, but it was deleted shortly afterward.” “Nate Hochman is no longer with the campaign. And we will not be commenting on him further,” a DeSantis campaign official told Axios.
On Saturday, @desantiscams, an anonymous pro-DeSantis account followed by several of his campaign aides, tweeted out a video attacking former President Trump for not building a border wall and for promoting the COVID-19 vaccine.
