Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis squeezed in time for beer and offered up a pint “on the house” as he joined a former longtime Donald Trump ally in the wake of the ex-president’s alleged “food for everyone” fail.
On Friday, DeSantis yelled out at a Nevada VFW post’s bar and asked if any of the veterans wanted a “draft on the house” before sipping a beer with a number of the men.
Laxalt, who roomed with DeSantis during their time in naval officer training, was the co-chair of Trump’s 2020 campaign in Nevada and a staunch backer of Trump’s false voter fraud claims.
DeSantis later joined his family and Laxalt at the Reno Rodeo, where the crowd met him with cheers and applause.
The Laxalt-led, DeSantis-backing PAC also has other ties to Trump.
Former Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, who launched the PAC this year, served in Trump’s Department of Homeland Security, The Associated Press noted in April.
