Gov. Ron DeSantis in Iowa took several not-at-all-subtle swings at former President Donald Trump.
Something was cooking Saturday, and it wasn’t on the grill but on the minds of almost everyone at the Sioux Center, Iowa, event: Will Gov. Ron DeSantis announce a White House run?
"After watching all the good stuff you’ve done in Iowa, it may be that Florida is the Iowa of the Southeast," said DeSantis to the crowd."Governing is not about entertaining. Governing is not about building a brand, or talking on social media, and virtue signaling; it’s ultimately about winning and producing results. That’s what you’ve done in Iowa and what we’ve done in Florida.
"The more they know about the man, the more they like him. When you couple that with unapologetic leadership and legislative success, as they’ve seen in Florida, people get really excited about that," said Erin Perrine, communications director of Never Back Down."We are waiting for Gov. DeSantis to announce we’re ready," said Kay Quirk."I don’t like drama. I like the fact that Gov. DeSantis just gets it done," Quirk said.
But not Saturday, as severe weather in central Iowa looks to be the reason Trump is canceling his rally in Des Moines.
