“They’re just too big, they have too much power,” DeSantis said. “I think they’re exercising a more negative influence on our society than the trusts that got broken up at the early 20th century.”
He added that large tech companies “are ruining our country. They’re a very negative influence. And so I think you need to be strong about it.”
