Former President Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis met privately in Miami on Sunday, according to a new report.
The pair spoke for several hours in what was described as a friendly meeting, according to The , which cited sources it did not name.
The report said both men had a reason to meet. For Trump, whose legal battles are draining time and resources, access to the DeSantis donor network would be a plus, as would having DeSantis energize Republicans.
“There is an incentive for DeSantis to form a closer relationship, as well,” the Post wrote. “People close to DeSantis have said it is untenable for him to continue to have a strained relationship with Trump, particularly as he eyes his political future. He is widely viewed among Republican donors and consultants as weakened after a shellacking by Trump in the primary.
