DeSantis' director of communications for his 2018 gubernatorial campaign told ABC News that his recent moves across the country could be a way to win over Trump voters without taking on former Pres. Trump directly.
DeSantis said the words "Florida" or "Floridians" at least 47 times during the Carlsbad speech. He mentioned Ronchetti three times.
His campaign communications director, Lindsey Curnutte, said in a statement: "[His] Freedom Agenda has been the much-needed antidote for Joe Biden's destructive policies — and he's eager to support bold leaders who are fighting for freedom in their own states as November approaches." "Put another way -- 'I'm gonna get all the good without the bad of taking on Trump directly,'" Lawson told ABC.
Earlier this week, he defended Novak Djokovic's decision not to be vaccinated against COVID-19, running afoul of tennis regulations. And just outside of Youngstown, Ohio, DeSantis took the stage to his campaign song "Sweet Florida" and tossed out ball caps with his own branding. DeSantis trumpeted his Trump endorsement during his first gubernatorial campaign, putting out an ad that showed the then-congressman reading to his child from Trump's book.
