Trump ally Donalds on president’s endorsement in Florida governor race: ‘it’s a great thing to have’

Bonita Springs, Florida. – Exclusive Republican Peron Donalds, who started his campaign for Florida’s 2026, began that “this will start.”
Donals’s prediction came in an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital before his gathering in front of a crowd of his hometown, his first event in his campaign in 2026.
The conservative legislator, which represented the nineteenth Congress in Florida in the southwestern part of the state for four years, is currently the only lead Republican who jumps into the race to succeed the low -duration of the Republican Party governor, Ron Desantis.
Donalds, a strong supporter and ally of President Donald Trump, announced his candidacy during his appearance on “Hanity” at the end of last month, after days of decline in the president’s support.
“We will hold a hard campaign and we will take this to every part of Florida,” Donalds pledged to meet him.

He referred to the support from Trump, whom I grabbed the Republican Party over the Republican Party more than ever, and stressed, “The existence of his support, it is great that I have, I am happy because I am.”
“When these options are taken, they tend to turn well to his candidates,” Donalds pointed out.
What Peron Donalds Fox News told Lara Trump
The campaign event, at Bonita Springs, comes at a time when the first lady, Casey Desantis in Florida, admitted that she is thinking about the 2026 Republican Governor’s tour, to succeed her husband in Talhaasi.
Desantis has repeatedly described his wife’s achievements as the first lady in Florida and put her as a worthy successor.

In addition, Casey Desantis, late last month, speculated when the journalists were asked if she would be nominated.
“The late Yuji Pera said,” said Desantis, repeating a famous line from the late baseball legend. “If you see a thorn on the way, take it.”
Then the ruler mocked the journalists that “you can read, comrades, in this what you want.”

When I was asked this month at the summit of the ideas of the National Review Institute at the National Port of Maryland, if it can launch a campaign, Casey Desantis said, “We will see.”
The sources confirmed last month to Fox News that the ruler had contacted the donors on behalf of his wife.

When asked about a possible confrontation with Casey Desantis, Donalds said, “The races take their own shape, so we’ll see what is already happening.”
He added: “My mission will focus on our future and the necessary things for Florida to go, flourish and be prosperous for everyone. So my mission will be. We will see how the race is formed.”
Donalds said he aims to transfer voters to “I have a vision of their future and I think that when they hear that, they will choose me.”
The deadline for raising criticism in the campaign campaign in the Florida Ruler’s race comes in the middle of Monday night, and a source in the political orbit of Congress expected that Fox News would be that Donalds will “easily spoil” that Disantis was a million dollars in his first month as a candidate for the ruler in his successful campaign for the year 2018 to succeed Scott as a ruler.
“I think it will appear a strong number of donations,” added another Republican expert based in Florida, who asked not to be identified by speaking more freely.

Outside the gathering, which was held at a place in a restaurant and music in the center of Bonita Springs, dozens of demonstrators protested against Donalds and the scheduled Trump administration agenda.

Donalds gathered with fears of the White House and Republicans in Capitol Hill during the Special Congress elections next week in Florida.
Voters in two regions of Congress in Florida will go to opinion polls on Tuesday, where Republicans aim to maintain control of both strong red seats and give themselves a little more space at home.
The elections are in the first and sixth regions of Florida, which Trump held by 37 and 30 points in the presidential elections last year.
But the democratic candidates have greatly outperformed Republican candidates, and the polls indicated in recent days that the race in the sixth region was within the margin of error.
The Republican Party is currently holding a majority of 218-213 in the House of Representatives, with two vacant seats, where Republicans and two were stepped in, as Democratic lawmakers died in March.
“When it comes to Florida, you have two races, and they seem to be good,” Trump told reporters on Friday.
But the indication of the feature of collecting huge donations by Democratic candidates for the Republican Party competitors, Trump raised concerns, saying, “You never know what happens in such a situation.”
Donalds expected, in a Fox News digital interview, “it will be difficult” for the majority of the Republican Party’s home if the party lost one of the elections on Tuesday.
But he added: “I am not looking forward to that. I think we will win both seats on Tuesday. I think Republican voters in those areas will turn because at the end of the day, the choice is clear.”

Republican Matt Gaitz, who won his re -election in the area in the November elections, resigned from his post after weeks after Trump chose him to be his candidate for the public lawyer in his second administration.
Gaetz later withdrew from looking at the cabinet amid controversy.
But the race in the Sixth CD, which is located on the Atlantic coast in Florida from the Dynona Beach to South Augustine directly and the interior to the outskirts of Ukla, is already concerned about some of the Republican Party.
The race is behind Republican Michael Waltz, who resigned from the seat on January 20 after Trump called him the National Security Adviser.

Weil has acquired a lot of national attention in recent weeks by photographing the critical battle of the campaign through the margin of approximately ten to one.
The cash contradiction in the Sixth CD race motivated external groups of the Republican Party to make contributions at the last minute to support the fine in the closing days of the campaign, as PACS Super Super has launched Trump’s support for Trump.
“I would have preferred if our candidate had raised money at a faster rate and was on TV faster,” Representative Richard Hudson of North Carolina, head of the National Congress Committee, told reporters earlier this week.
But Hudson added that the fine is “doing what he needs to do. It is on TV now.”
“We will win the seat. I am not worried at all.”

Trump, who indicates a fine, on Friday admitted that “our candidate does not have this kind of money.”
In the first boycott, where there is less concern by Republicans about seat loss, Valmonant topped the donation sponsor five to one difference.
