| 0:00.0 | This is CBSI in the world. I'm John Bachelors. Jeff Bliss is specific watch and the campaign |
| 0:11.0 | of 2024 underway both for the Republicans and the Democrats and now the governor of |
| 0:16.6 | Florida, Ron DeSantis, who has long been identified with the success of his economy, comes |
| 0:23.0 | to a part of California's economy that is in great distress. San Francisco, downtown. |
| 0:29.4 | Jeff, a very good evening to you. The video made by the DeSantis campaign is brutally blunt |
| 0:36.5 | about what you find in the streets. Human waste, heroin, addiction, bad acting, theft, |
| 0:43.7 | boarded up storefronts, all that you've been reporting for several years now, but now |
| 0:48.0 | it's part of the campaign. How do you measure the fact that San Francisco is going to be |

| 1:25.0 | he's not doing right as governor. That's one aspect. Number two is it allows DeSantis to hold up |
| 1:31.1 | San Francisco and by way that California liberal policies as an example, we don't want this to |
| 1:36.4 | happen the rest of the country where it's already gone south in the blue states, especially |
| 1:39.7 | this big blue one here on West Coast. It's a very smart move, but there's just so much there, |
| 1:45.2 | such a target rich environment for anybody that wants to run against policies to become identified |
| 1:51.2 | with California. Again, certainly it's great ammunition for DeSantis if he's going to go off against |
| 1:58.8 | Gavin Newsom. Biden was just here this past week trying to get money from supporters. He has |
| 2:05.5 | a lot of big money people in the Bay Area and Silicon Valley. I think it's another way of striking |
