Ron DeSantis suggested he would have been court-martialed in a New York minute if he had kept classified documents while in the Navy, in a veiled attack on Donald Trump.
The Florida governor, 44, has been careful to walk a delicate line as he challenges Mr Trump for the Republican partys 2024 presidential nomination, as he is wary of alienating the former presidents base.
Mr DeSantis initially expressed outrage at the Justice Departments decision to charge the 76-year-old former president with illegally keeping top-secret files after he left the White House.
But in remarks on Friday night, Mr DeSantis implicitly stressed the gravity of his rivals alleged crimes, even as he condemned the weaponisation of the justice system.

Trump has not been charged for having the documents. It's because he refused to return them.
