PoliticoTALLAHASSEE, Fla. Former President Donald Trump is coming to Miami just two days before Election Day. But one Republican wont be there Gov. Ron DeSantis. Not yet anyway.
Trump on Wednesday said hell hold a rally with Sen. Marco Rubio on Nov. 6. DeSantis was left off the announcement and an adviser to the former president said the Florida governor is not attending.
The apparent snub angered some people within DeSantis orbit, who complained that the Florida governors team was not informed of the rally prior to Trump announcing it. The timing of the Trump and Rubio event means any campaign event DeSantis holds that day wont get as much attention during the all-important final stretch of the 2022 midterms.
Youve got the Sunday before Election Day totally hijacked by Trump parachuting in on Trump Force One taking up the whole day, said a longtime Republican consultant who is close to the governor. No Republican could go to a DeSantis event that day. None. And DeSantis wont be here? This is big.
