Florida Rep. Byron Donalds announces plans to run for the governor

MP Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) Announced on Tuesday that he wanted to run for the Governor of Florida next year when the term of the Republicans Ron Desantis runs.

Donalds, who was born and grew up in Brooklyn, made the announcement during an interview with Sean Hannity, moderator of Fox News.

“Sean, we have a wonderful state,” said Florida's representative of the 19th district. “When I was 17 years old, I came in Florida, from a greyhound bus with just one suitcase with clothes. And in the rest of my time in Florida I built a family, built a career. “

“I was able to serve in state legislation for four years, four years in the congress,” continued Donalds. “And now I think there is the time to take over the coat and lead our state into the future.”

The three-time period of the Member of the Congress has already received the coveted confirmation of President Trump, who supported his candidacy last week after hearing rumbling that he had considered a governor run.

“I know Byron well, have tested it at the highest and most difficult level and he is a total winner!” Trump wrote about the social truth.

“As a governor, Byron would have a big voice and would work closely with me to drive our first agenda in America,” added the president. He will fight tirelessly to secure our border, to stop the migrant crime, strengthen our military, to restore our veterinarians, to restore our economic power, to promote American energy dominance and to defend our always under siege of the second change. “

“Byron Donalds would be a really big and powerful governor for Florida and, if he decided, will run my complete and total confirmation. Run, Byron, race! ”

Donalds, who advocated Trump in the primary president of GOP President of 2024 over Desantis, praised the popular governor of the Sunshine State in his announcement.

“We have a big governor,” said the Member of the Congress. “Ron Desantis has done an enormous job for our state.”

“But now it is the task of keeping the best state in the country as the best state in the country,” he added. “And so it will be the mission. And I am happy to announce my candidacy with you tonight. “

Desantis was asked about Donalds, which may jump into the race on Monday, and said reporters that the MEP should concentrate on the development [Trump’s] Agenda.”

“You haven't done much yet,” said Desantis about GOP legislator in the congress. “You do not use his executive commands. We will see what you do with the expenses, but we have such a close majority that it is not advisable to fight against other places and miss these voices. “

“We won victories in Florida,” continued Desantis. “A guy like Byron, he was simply not part of the victories that we had here in the past few years about the left -wing victories.”

The governor's wife, Casey Desantis, was also rumored that he is considering a governor run from 2026.

“People ask me all the time about our wonderful First Lady, who as a first lady of Florida did a fantastic job,” said Desantis when he was asked about his wife's opportunity. “I'll tell you that. You talk about someone like her. I won with the greatest lead that every Republican won a governor race here in Florida. She would do it better than me. “
