This is the most recent development in the pair’s relationship.
Through a mutual acquaintance, DeSantis (R-Fla.) sought a meeting with Trump in an effort to discuss campaigning, fundraising, and to “bury the hatchet,” according to a source who was present at the encounter.
According to a second source, the meeting was organized by real estate mogul Steve Witkoff. DeSantis joined Trump for brunch while the former president was out golfing.
The GOP 2024 front-runner, Trump, and Florida’s popular conservative governor, DeSantis, both previously squared off in the 2024 Republican primary.

“While I’ve had disagreements with Donald Trump, such as on the coronavirus pandemic and his elevation of [COVID-19 adviser] Anthony Fauci, Trump is superior to the current incumbent, Joe Biden.

At a donor conference earlier this month, DeSantis hinted that he intended to help raise campaign funds for the former president’s 2024 endeavor.
