The closeness of Reynolds and DeSantis"has been the subject of internal Trump campaign discussions," according to The Times' report. The former president implied in his Truth Social post that he also believes Reynolds owes him more loyalty for his past endorsements. While at a campaign event in Iowa in June, Trump said Reynolds wouldn't have won her races without him:"I hate to say it, without me, you know, she was not going to win, you know that, right?"Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, who is also running for the GOP presidential nomination, tweeted a defense of Reynolds Monday afternoon.
