Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) likened Russian President Vladimir Putin to an “authoritarian gas station attendant.”

“If you look at what’s going on with someone like Vladimir Putin, I analogize him to, basically, an authoritarian gas station attendant,” DeSantis said.

The Florida governor said Russia is a “hollowed out country” except for its energy.

“So, [Putin] is in a situation where his ideology, I think, is to try and reassemble some of the lost glory of what they had” during the days of the Soviet Union.

DeSantis said that while Russia is putting a tremendous amount of effort into its invasion of Ukraine, he believes that holding the nation down will be like swallowing a porcupine.

“You’re going to end up with like these Ukrainians engaging in guerrilla warfare, and I think it’s gonna be like death by a thousand cuts,” DeSantis said.
