BREAKING: Ron DeSantis blames Satanic display on Donald Trump at CNN townhall as Kim Reynolds under fire in Iowa

Florida Governor Ron Desantis blamed President Donald Trump for the satanic display at the Iowa state capitol building. Speaking at a CNN hosted townhall, DeSantis lashed out at Trump, saying that because The Satanic Temple was granted status as a church by the IRS in 2019, the whole thing was Trump's fault.

"So it's interesting," DeSantis said, "I heard this and then I was like 'how did it get there? Is that even a religion?' And lo and behold, the Trump administration gave them approval to be under the IRS as a religion. So that gave them the legal ability to do it. So I don't know what the legislature—how they analyzed it, but it very well may be because of that ruling under Donald Trump they may have had a leg to stand."

"My view would be that's not a religion that the founding fathers were trying to create, but I do think that IRS ruling, I was really surprised to see that they did that."

Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds, who endorsed DeSantis for president, condemned the presence of the satanic altar and "holiday display" in the capitol building after backlash. The Satanic Temple was permitted to put up the display for two weeks, as are many other groups.
