President Trump Shares His True Feelings About Matt Gaetz

Share

Rumors have been circulating that Matt Gaetz would be running for governor of Florida.

Many have come out in support of Rep. Gaetz following Gov. DeSantis’ abysmal presidential campaign.

NBC News covered more on the story when it first broke:

“There was a lot of talk about it at the reception last night, and Gaetz was telling people to basically expect him to be in,” one longtime Florida Republican lobbyist said.

Gaetz has not publicly downplayed the idea he might run for governor one day, but told NBC News Monday his only political focus at the moment is trying to elect Donald Trump in 2024.

“Many did encourage me to consider running for governor one day,” Gaetz said of the Sunday evening event. “But we have an outstanding governor who will be in that position through 2026.”

“My only political focus right now is Trump 2024,” he added.

Gaetz was a top adviser to DeSantis’ 2018 gubernatorial bid, but the two have since had a falling out. Gaetz has become among the most vocal backers of Trump, whose presidential campaign now leads in most primary polling by significant margins over the rest of the field.

Now, that brings us to President Trump.

President Trump spoke in an interview with The National Pulse and answered many questions.

One question in particular that brought interest was President Trump’s opinion on the idea of Rep. Gaetz running for Florida Governor.

Well, check it out below:

Here’s what President Trump had to say:

“Well, he’s a great guy, I mean, he’s great, he’s a wonderful person.

He’s strong; he went through hell for two years.

Over something that I never believed for a second.

He held up strong; he was very strong.

A lot of guys can’t hold up to that.”

I think that is as close to having an endorsement from President Trump as you’ll get without a direct statement.

I would only imagine President Trump hasn’t outright given an endorsement because it isn’t guaranteed he will run at all.

Rep. Gaetz has always been a strong supporter of President Trump.

I couldn’t imagine anyone better running for Governor of Florida.

Surely better than RINO DeSantis, who has actively gone behind President Trump’s back this election.
