The first lady of Florida has been a regular feature on the campaign trail. Now, she's hitting the road as the headliner.
The first lady of Florida traveled to Iowa on Thursday for her first public appearance of her husband’s presidential campaign on her own, launching Mamas for DeSantis in a suburb of Des Moines.
The video, which she narrated, included a call to action: “Enough is enough. When you come after our kids, we fight back, because there’s nothing we won’t do to protect our children.” It’s the first public event she has done without her husband during the presidential campaign, but she is hardly a stranger to the trail.
“By the way, if you’re wondering why my voice is a little bit hoarse? Well, it’s because I’ve been negotiating with a 3-year-old all day today as to why they cannot color with permanent marker on the dining room table or in the bathroom or on the state wallpaper in the Governor’s Mansion,” she told a laughing crowd on the night of the campaign’s launch in Clive, Iowa.
Cindy Manning, of Grimes, Iowa, agrees. “I’m a mom. And I like to hear what she has to say about what her issues are,” she said, saying Casey DeSantis “makes a big difference” in influencing her decision to potentially caucus for the governor.“She will be a great part in influencing her husband when he becomes president — if he becomes president,” Malina Cottington said before Casey DeSantis spoke.
The role for a presidential hopeful’s spouse is often just as public-facing as the candidate’s — but much less defined.
