Trump Continues to Attack DeSantis at Rally in Waco.

Former President Donald Trump held his first formal rally of the 2024 campaign in Waco, Texas, where he emphasized personal grievances and attacked his nearest targets, including Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and the Manhattan district attorney who is poised to indict him. Trump's supporters expressed disappointment in DeSantis for not defending Trump more strongly and accused him of being a "traitor." Trump framed the investigations into him as "the central issue of our time" and cast himself as a victim of a federal government aligned against him. The rally highlighted the fault lines in the early GOP primary, where fealty to Trump appears to be a main litmus test for those running.
