It’s an anxious political moment that has the two leading conservative candidates, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump, fighting over which of them hews most closely to the extreme right flank of the party.
MIAMI — Henry Suarez is watching closely as the clock counts down to the 2024 American presidential election.
“DeSantis — I love him. Don’t get me wrong. He’s a great governor. I love what he did in Florida,” said Suarez, a Cuban-American who came to the U.S. in 1961. “But Trump is already proven.” “We need MAGA — Make America Great Again,” Trump said in a video message following DeSantis’ campaign launch last week. “We have no choice. This is the last shot we’ve got at it. If we don’t win this time, our country’s in very big trouble.”
DeSantis accuses Trump of attacking him from the left, after the former president said that a bill DeSantis signed banning abortion six weeks after conception wasTrump has mocked DeSantis as being only marginally better than a Democrat when compared to Republican governors in other states, and for picking an ideology-fuelled fight after facing criticism from Disney chief executive officer Bob Iger and putting thousands of jobs and tourism dollars at risk.
“Bottom line is that I’m not a happy camper right now with these two phenomenal candidates right now running against each other,” he told the newspaper. But a Trump candidacy comes with all the baggage collected during his first four years in office, from 2016 to 2020.
