DeSantis will go toe-to-toe with Trump to be the Republican nominee, but there was a time when relations were much more harmonious between the two.
FLORIDA REPUBLICAN RON DeSantis is set to become the latest person to officially enter the US presidential race.
‘Trumpism without the chaos’ DeSantis is young, scandal-free, and a darling of conservatives for his embrace of an “anti-woke” agenda that has fuelled his rise within the Republican Party. He practiced law in the US Navy and entered politics in 2012, winning a seat in the House of Representatives before his narrow election as governor in 2018.
Doubts over Trump’s electability continue to mount following his indictment on felony financial charges, a finding of liability in a civil sexual assault case and criminal probes into alleged election interference and mishandling of government documents.He has failed to capitalise, making missteps that have raised red flags over his own readiness, as Trump opens up an average polling lead of close to 40 points.
Last week, Disney cancelled plans for a new employee campus in central Florida in the latest ripple effect from its feud with DeSantis. The origin of the fight has been Disney’s criticism of a DeSantis-backed law banning school lessons on sexual orientation and gender identity.
