Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and first lady Casey DeSantis recently spent time with former President Donald Trump at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach. Speculation is swirling that Casey DeSantis might be gearing up to run for governor herself. The trio enjoyed a round of golf and a meal together during their visit.
The meeting comes on the heels of Rep. Byron Donalds announcing his bid for the governorship after receiving encouragement from Trump. Governor DeSantis has hinted at Casey as a potential successor, expressing reservations about Donalds’ campaign efforts outside of Florida.
DeSantis emphasized the importance of delivering results for the people of Florida to maintain the state’s Republican stronghold. He praised Casey’s conservative principles and leadership qualities, suggesting she could surpass his own electoral success if she were to run for governor.
Notably, DeSantis shared that the late Rush Limbaugh had endorsed Casey as a candidate, highlighting her dedication to conservative values. The governor expressed confidence in her ability to elevate Florida to new heights if she were to enter the political arena.
The interactions between the DeSantis family and Trump have sparked interest in the upcoming gubernatorial race, setting the stage for a potentially dynamic political landscape in Florida.
