Recently, Trump has intensified his criticism of DeSantis, taking particular umbrage as what he sees as the governor's ungratefulness, even saying “DeSantis got elected because of me.” How Trump and DeSantis' relationship has deteriorated over the years:
Trump gave DeSantis' gubernatorial bid an early boost by tweeting his support even before DeSantis formally entered the race. In his 2018 victory speech, DeSantis made sure to thank the president, saying, “I think we'll have a great partnership.”— as the two face off to take on Democrat Joe Biden:During the 2016 presidential campaign, then-congressman DeSantis said he wouldn't make an endorsement in the crowded field but would support the eventual nominee.
“Whatever ends up doing, it does not have legitimacy, when you have all this evidence of tainted and political bias and the disparate treatment between Hillary Clinton and then how they are treating Trump associates,” DeSantis told Fox News commentator Lou Dobbs in one such TV hit in December 2017.Before DeSantis entered the Florida governor’s race in 2018, he asked Trump to send out a tweet touting him as a good candidate.
DeSantis initially resisted issuing a statewide stay-at-home order but reversed course and issued it after facing pressure from Trump and White House advisers.At a campaign event ahead of the 2020 election, Trump praised DeSantis and called him a friend but also joked that he would blame the governor if he did not win Florida.Trump ended up winning Florida in 2020 by 3.4 percentage points — a bigger margin of victory than in 2016.
In the days following DeSantis' reelection victory, Trump put out a statement knocking him as an “average REPUBLICAN governor with great Public Relations" and criticizing him for not ruling out a 2024 presidential bid.
