Gov. Ron DeSantis has officially joined the ranks of Republicans who have bent their knee to the leader of the Republican Party who demands nothing less than blind loyalty.
DeSantis and Trump, whose relationship soured after a contentious presidential primary race as Trump repeatedly insulted the governor, met in Miami on Sunday. The meeting, first reported by the Washington Post, has been described as a “potential détente” between the two and Trump’s advisers hope DeSantis will tap into his network of donors to help Trump return to the White House in November.
DeSantis will have to swallow his pride if he doesn’t want to have an enemy in Trump. The former president, according to the Washington Post, told advisers during the primary he not only wanted to beat DeSantis in 2024 but also hurt him in 2028.
That’s the ironic twist for DeSantis. He is known in Tallahassee for taking revenge against lawmakers and even businesses that cross him.
It paid off for DeSantis to connect with Trump when he was a little-known congressman running for governor in 2018. The former president will certainly be happy if DeSantis can bring more wealthy donors into his orbit.
