- Former President Donald Trump played adviser to his top primary threat, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), on the 2024 cycle and Republican unity.
- “Ron DeSantis is a young man who is not doing well against me in the polls, to put it mildly. I believe that if he decides to run for President, which will only hurt and somewhat divide the Republican Party, he will lose the cherished and massive MAGA vote, and never be able to successfully run for office again,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
- “If he remains Governor, which is what Florida voters assumed, it would be a whole different story …. JUST SAYIN’ — But who knows,” the former president said.
