Former President Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis met for the first time in months on Sunday, with signs they make broker peace from a tough primary so Republicans can beat Joe Biden in November.
DeSantis ran against Trump for the Republican nomination in 2024, before dropping out on January 21 after a lackluster finish in Iowa and endorsed the former president.
However, the Florida chief executive has expressed skepticism about Trump, having said he has 'too much baggage' to run as Trump's vice president and saying some Republicans will never vote for him. On the other side, Trump ran scorched earth against DeSantis - or 'DeSanctimonius' as he referred to him on the trail - and his donors have expressed fury over the governor's criticism.
DeSantis - whom Trump shot into the stratosphere with a 2018 endorsement for governor - requested a meeting with Trump on Sunday in Miami in an attempt to make nice against their common foe - Biden.
