'DeSantis denied that race had anything to do with his comments, but instead argued he was focusing on "ideas and principles."'
'Politico on Thursday reported that Steven Alembik, who has donated more than $20,000 to DeSantis, called Obama the n-word and a Muslim in a since-deleted tweet.“We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again: we adamantly denounce this sort of disgusting rhetoric,” DeSantis campaign spokesman Stephen Lawson told Politico in a statement. '
'Alembik insisted that neither he nor DeSantis are racist and said he wrote the tweet in anger. '
'His comments prompted an immediate backlash, with critics suggesting the remarks had racial undertones or were outright racist. '
'The phone recording features a man pretending to be Gillum speaking in an exaggerated accent as jungle noises play in the background. '
