About a dozen protesters playing songs from Public Enemy and chanting Disney-related insults gathered in Washington, D.C., Tuesday in an attempt to heckle Ron DeSantis, who was meeting and mingling with Republican lawmakers inside a building less than a mile from the U.S. Capitol.
The governor has a bigger problem on his hands this week than a handful of angry critics.
DeSantis was making a rare visit to the nation’s capital just as a growing number of Republican lawmakers — including many from Florida’s congressional delegation — publicly endorsed former President Donald Trump. One day after Rep. Greg Steube of Florida endorsed Trump, Rep. John Rutherford followed suit. So did Rep. Brian Mast, according to CNN.
