The two biggest politicians in Florida hosted competing campaign events Sunday, teeing up what could be the defining battle for the Republican nomination in 2024.
Former President Donald Trump hosted a rally in Miami on Sunday afternoon. The official purpose was to help Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., in his reelection bid, as well as other GOP candidates. But as Trump often does at his campaign events, Trump re-litigated his complaints about the 2020 election and House Democrats, and he teased his potential 2024 bid.
Trump did not shower DeSantis with praise, as the former president did with Rubio, Sen. Rick Scott, and a swath of other GOP Florida politicians who were attending the rally. The governor also stuck close to a finely tuned message that laced into the latest iteration of the culture wars, blasting an amorphous network of “elites”.
