Trump's Endorsements in DeSantis' Backyard Shake Up Florida Politics

Former President Donald Trump has gained at least six endorsements from Florida's Republican congressional delegation, while Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has only received one endorsement from his home state delegation. DeSantis' popularity has declined in public polling since Trump announced his candidacy for president in November 2020, prompting some donors to question whether he is ready for the big leagues. Trump's endorsements are being strategically rolled out to coincide with events he attends, and he now has endorsements from over 50 members of Congress, while DeSantis has only received three.
