“Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is planning to raise money for former President Donald Trump in the coming weeks, putting into action the commitment he made at a meeting with Trump last month to help his former rival for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination,“ the AP reports.
“DeSantis is making calls to donors while his finance team works quickly to put together a schedule that would include stops in Florida and Texas.”
“DeSantis is taking concrete steps toward a political reconciliation with Trump, who for months taunted his GOP opponent as ‘DeSanctimonious’ as the Florida governor argued Trump’s time had come and gone. The developments also show DeSantis’ effort to offer among his most prized assets — his prolific fundraising network — in a gesture that could pay dividends if he runs for president again in 2028, when Trump would be ineligible to run if he wins this November due to constitutional term limits.”
