ESPN's Stephen A. Smith said Ron DeSantis has "lost his damn mind" after the Florida governor signed legislation to ban diversity, equality and inclusion (DEI) programs at Florida universities.

Smith admitted he was not an "aficionado on this subject" but still took aim at the Florida governor.

The ESPN host began his rant with an insult that turned into somewhat of a backhanded compliment.
