“Absolutely. I’m game. Let’s get it done. Just tell me when and where. We’ll do it," DeSantis told Hannity. "I floated the idea of a policy-based debate, you know, red vs. blue, red state vs. blue state, between Gavin Newsom and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis," he said, moments before DeSantis joined. "Governor Newsom has been challenging DeSantis to debate for months and sent him a formal debate offer last week. Nov. 8 or 10 — DeSantis should put up or shut up. Anything else is just games," the spokesman said in a statement.offering a formal debate included several rules, including that the debate would be live, moderated by Hannity, held at a length of 90 minutes and that both governors would refrain from using notes.
