Originally reported by The Washington Post, former GOP presidential rivals Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis met in Miami over the weekend to discuss fundraising and the 2024 election.
According to reports, DeSantis has agreed to help Trump’s campaign.
From NEWSMAX:
Trump and DeSantis had not spoken since before the 2024 primary cycle, but they broke the silence between them as the Trump campaign hopes to tap into what was a strong DeSantis donor network, sources told the Post.
Unlike former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, DeSantis suspended his primary campaign after Iowa and before the New Hampshire polls closed and immediately endorsed Trump.
The reunion was orchestrated by mutual acquaintance and Florida real estate broker Steve Witkoff, who reached out to the Trump campaign to help reconnect DeSantis to Trump, according to the Post.
“It’s clear to me that a majority of Republican primary voters want to give Donald Trump another chance,” DeSantis said in a recent video message. “They watched his presidency get stymied by relentless resistance, and they see Democrats using lawfare to this day to attack him.”
