President Joe Biden stepped on Vice President Kamala Harris' appearance on The View on Tuesday when he praised Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' for 'doing a great job' with Hurricane Milton preparations. 

Biden made the remarks during a dueling appearance with the vice president who less than 24 hours earlier criticized the Republican governor as powerful Hurricane Milton barrels toward Florida. 

Harris and DeSantis publicly butted heads on Monday when they accused each other of playing politics after DeSantis did not take calls from the vice president.

But in an update on hurricane preparedness on Tuesday, Biden said he has spoken to 'all political leaders in the region' and some of them more than once and shared that he gave DeSantis his personal phone number.

It comes after Harris tore into DeSantis on Monday for not taking her calls as the hurricane approaches the state later this week.

'You know, moments of crisis, if nothing else, should really be the moment that anyone who calls themselves a leader says they’re gonna put politics aside and put the people first,' Harris said. 

The vice president make the comments as she spoke to journalists at Joint Base Andrew before her departure for New York City.

She said 'playing political games at this moment in these crisis situations, these are the height of the emergency situations, it's just utterly irresponsible, and it is selfish.'
