Republicans, they worked very closely. Look, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Donald Trump<\/a>, he supported Kevin McCarthy very strongly for speaker. I don\u2019t think he would have won the speaker vote. Donald Trump was instrumental in him earning that speaker\u2019s gavel,&#8221; DeSantis told a reporter on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>He added that Trump and McCarthy were on the &#8220;same team&#8221; on &#8220;every major spending bill&#8221; that added $7.8 trillion to the national debt.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Never in a four-year period has that much been added than what they did together. And so he (McCarthy) said we\u2019re different. We are different, because in Florida, we run budget surpluses, We\u2019ve paid down nearly 25% of our state\u2019s debt just since I\u2019ve been governor,&#8221; said DeSantis.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/desantis-says-trump-age-like-biden-legitimate-concern-2024-election\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>DESANTIS SAYS TRUMP&#8217;S AGE, LIKE BIDEN&#8217;S, &#8216;LEGITIMATE CONCERN&#8217; IN 2024 ELECTION<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am not somebody who the D.C. establishment wants to see up there,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;There\u2019s no question about that because they know that a lot of things will be changing if I\u2019m there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s understandable that the DC Establishment doesn\u2019t want me to be president \u2014 and I wear that as a badge of honor,&#8221; DeSantis <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/RonDeSantis\/status\/1703845915625218142?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">posted on social media<\/a> with a clip of his remarks.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/florida-gop-gives-victory-trump-over-desantis-by-scrapping-proposed-primary-ballot-rule\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>FLORIDA GOP GIVES A VICTORY TO TRUMP OVER DESANTIS BY SCRAPPING A PROPOSED PRIMARY BALLOT RULE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>DeSantis&#8217; comments follow Sunday <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/speaker-mccarthy-predicts-trump-gop-nominee-slams-desantis-not-same-level\"><u>remarks from McCarthy<\/u><\/a> on Fox News&#8217; &#8220;Sunday Morning Futures&#8221; with host Maria Bartiromo, where the Republican leader said that Trump will be the GOP nominee and said DeSantis is &#8220;not at the same level&#8221; as Trump.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;President Trump is beating Biden right now in the polls.
