TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Ron DeSantis hopes to raise at least $10 million as part of a multi-state fundraising swing for Donald Trump, a man he fought in a bitter primary race but with whom he has now found a cautious truce. “I think we believe Biden needs to be beat, and the governor is willing to put the sword down,” a top DeSantis adviser said. “They have had several good conversations as recently as last week.
The wire service reported that Trump called into a South Florida donor event hosted by DeSantis this month to praise his former political rivalry. “Ron, I love that you’re back,” Trump said. The committee so far has raised $13 million, of which $10.1 million has come from Perlmutter and his wife, Laura, according to campaign finance reports. “Ike has been helpful over the years so a lot of it just made sense,” the DeSantis adviser said.
