DeSantis was a member of Congress, he was a friend with Trump. It just so happens they're good friends, and it just so happens they're in the same political party, and it just so happens that Florida's an important state, and it just so happens that Trump likes DeSantis. They're trying to position DeSantis as a know-nothing idiot who is a puppy dog following Trump around and does whatever Trump tells him to do whenever Trump tells him to do it because Trump praises DeSantis. They are trying to say he's nothing but a Donald Trump puppet. And he has approval numbers 60% and higher. Ron DeSantis is doing a fabulous job as governor of Florida.

I had never met Rush, and then when we came down the escalator he liked my rather controversial speech. "He became a friend of mine," Trump recalled. People, whether they loved him or not, they respected him, they really did."īut even though Trump became close with Limbaugh during his presidency, he said that before he announced his candidacy, he had never met the radio icon.
