GET ME REWRITE: Donald Trump is kickin' Ron DeSantis's butt with Florida endorsements

 

Florida's U.S. House delegation includes 20 Republicans and 8 Democrats.  In other words, nearly half of the Republicans have endorsed Trump.  The crazy keeps building in the Sunshine State.

In another blow to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s not-yet-official presidential bid, two more Republican members of Congress from his own state are gearing to endorse Donald Trump for another term. Reps. Gus Bilirakis and Carlos Gimenez are each planning to announce their support for the former president this week, multiple sources familiar with the matter tell TIME.

I'll guess we'll soon learn how reliable these 'multiple sources' are.

John Rutherford announces his endorsement.

The Hill, 4/19/2023
“Today, I am proud to endorse my friend, President Donald J. Trump,” Rutherford said in a tweet. “As a former Sheriff, I understand the importance of a fair and impartial system of justice. The systematic targeting of Americans with conservative ideals, especially our 45th President of the United States, disgraces our nation’s legacy.”

As does Vern Buchanan.

"If we want to get our economy back on track, Donald Trump is just the guy to get it done," Buchanan said. "From lowering taxes to protecting our borders to promoting America-first trade deals, President Trump has done it before and will do it again."
