Liberty-eliminating Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis held a 30-minute meeting with democracy-defending Republican Georgia Governor Brian Kemp Friday, as DeSantis attempts to develop relationships with other Republican governors Donald Trump has attacked.
According to Politico, DeSantis has also cozied up to GOPers Kim Reynolds of Iowa and John Sununu in New Hampshire, both early primary states where a governor’s endorsement goes a long way. Sources told Politico DeSantis did not solicit, nor even discuss, an endorsement from Kemp.
DeSantis, at this point, is simply trying not to lose. When Trump’s legal problems finally exclude him from consideration for the nomination, DeSantis wants to have allies in the smoky back rooms of the Republican National Convention to push his nomination.
