“There are people in public life that are kind of check the box politicians, and then there are others they want to serve, and Governor DeSantis is one of those,” the former Florida governor said during a Fox Nation special on DeSantis, who has yet to jump into the 2024 presidential ring.
Bush talked about his father, George H.W. Bush, and DeSantis, as both served as the captains of the Yale baseball team. Interviewer Brian Kilmeade noted DeSantis has identified Bush Sr. as someone he looks up to and also asked Bush about how he thought DeSantis responded to criticisms early on during the Chinese coronavirus pandemic, according to clips from the interview.
“They were trying to set him up, and he knew it. And he punched him in the nose,” Bush said, praising DeSantis’s overall response to various crises.
He gets an A for sure,” Bush said, pointing to how the governor responded to Hurricane Ian.
“The fact that he could announce that, for example, the bridge to Sanibel Island, which could be built in record time and open within 10 days I think, is pretty remarkable,” Bush, whom Trump deemed “Low Energy” during the presidential race in 2016, said.
DeSantis has not announced an intention of running in 2024, but speculation continues to arise. When asked if it is DeSantis’s opportunity to run for higher office, Bush offered a sterling stamp of approval.

How to destroy DeSantis 101
Maybe Ron will pick Jeb as a vp.
Uh, Jeb, please go away. DeSantis most certainly needeth not your help.
The Bushies are anyone but Trump people.
DeSantis was invited to join trump. He turned him down. Now he won’t declare but he won’t deny. Sounds like tge sleazy side of a lawyer. But it doesn’t orl in his political arena.
DeSantis could be working with trump locking up Florida walking into the wh in 28 but it’s DeSantis’s choice to not do that
That’s how to destroy DeSantis 101.
With Jeb! and Soros and Paul Ryan speaking highly of you,
how can you lose??
The fluffing here is quite disgraceful.
The KISS OF DEATH
Please Clap...
They are not supporting Ron because they like his politics. They are supporing Ron because in their eyes he is the only viable Trump slayer.
An endorsement from Jeb Please Clap Bush is the kiss of death.
I wouldn’t trust the imbecile Jeb’s opinion as to what brand of bubble gum to buy.
Can’t wait to hear what Carly Fiorina has to say..,
You can’t read between the lines?
A lot of people don’t. They want narration. Turn the sound down and look at the action
What do we know?
Desantis asked Trump for an endorsement for governor. Trump gave it to him.
We can conclude Trump expected the same in return, no more no less. He’s a business man. An honest one.
DeSantis did not give Trump an endorsement in return
We can imagine that Desantis would do the same to anyone, including his voters
Trump tells us that
People let their feelings and narration get in the way. They want to hate Trump and believe the lies. It would be easier. However, when Trump says Desantis let him down there’s not a logical reason to think Trump is lying or over reacting the only reason to pile on is mob think. Media narration. Popular belief
You don’t think Trump asked for the endorsement of the Governor of Florida?
Of course he did.
