Scott travelled through parts of the state speaking to law enforcement and first responders a day after Hurricane Helene hit Florida

Sen. Rick Scott kind of threw Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis under the bus during a Friday afternoon CNN discussion about Hurricane Helene.

As Hurricane Helene formed and barreled toward the Big Bend, it provided an opportunity for Rick Scott, Florida’s reelection-seeking U.S. senator. He demonstrated concern for the state’s residents, warned them to protect themselves — and got public attention with less than six weeks until Election Day.
