Donald Trump is back in, and now it’s decision time for Florida’s GOP.
“America’s comeback starts right now,” Trump said Tuesday around 9 p.m. from a ballroom of his private Mar-a-Lago estate.
Minutes before his speech, it was reported that Trump had filed a Form 2 with the Federal Election Commission, a key step in running for president.
While far from a surprise, the announcement capped months of speculation punctuated by innuendo and assorted potshots cast by Trump at possible political rivals, specifically potential GOP nomination rival Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Unlike in 2020 when Trump faced mostly token opposition, several prominent Republicans have been rumored to be considering a run ahead of the 2024 election. Among them would be former Vice President Mike Pence and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Trump’s decision sets up what could be a political drama, a real-life House of Cards in Florida. The Republicans need to get their act together and stop acting like two different Republican parties.
