    Pretty damn cool. The orange idiot is going to tell all the little
    idiots what to think Saturday night.

    "Former President Donald Trump will speak on Saturday night.

    "I want this whole thing with Russia and Ukraine. I'd like to hear a
    little bit more about that. I'd like to hear about the border situation
    down South," attendee Lisa Forsyth said.

    The headlining appearances of Trump and DeSantis shine a light on the increasingly complicated relationship between the two Republican Party
    leaders.

    While DeSantis owes his election in 2018 largely to Trump's support,
    their relationship remaining friendly is far from certain.

    Already, there is chatter that DeSantis could be destined to run for
    president, perhaps as soon as 2024.

    A recent Trump rally in Texas showed Florida's governor has become an
    extremely popular face in the conservative movement.

    The Associated Press reports a collection of “DeSantis 2024” bumper stickers were seen alongside “TRUMP WON!” T-shirts, “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN” hats and “LET’S GO BRANDON” flags for sale.

    Nikki Rye, who lives in Florida and has been selling Trump gear at his
    events since 2015, said the merchandise hyping her state's Republican
    governor, Ron DeSantis, “is a very, very sought-after item." Beyond the stickers, a life-size cutout of DeSantis stood at one side of her shop,
    with Trump flanking the other.

    A recent poll from The Associated Press-Center for Public Affairs
    Research found that while 71% of Republicans have a favorable opinion of
    Trump, a smaller percentage — 56% — want him to run again in 2024. The
    poll found 44% of Republicans do not want Trump to run.

    Meanwhile, a recent NBC poll found that, by a 20-point margin,
    Republicans now identify more as supporters of the Republican Party than supporters of Trump — a reversal from the sentiment before the 2020 election."
