Ron DeSantis is headed abroad this week for a series of visits to allied nations — an opportunity for Florida's Republican governor to step onto the international stage for the first time as a likely presidential contender.
After a trying week for his national political ambitions, Gov. Ron DeSantis is headed abroad this week for a series of visits to allied nations – an opportunity for the Florida Republican to step onto the international stage for the first time as a likely presidential contender. The official purpose behind DeSantis’ globetrotting is for an “international trade mission,” according to his office.
Some key donors have publicly expressed reservations about DeSantis’ chances in a primary against Donald Trump, who continues to hammer his onetime ally on social media. The former president last week upstaged DeSantis’ return to Capitol Hill to seek support from within the chamber he once served in by rolling out a string of congressional endorsements – including a handful from Florida lawmakers. Eleven Florida Republicans have endorsed Trump over DeSantis so far – including seven last week.
