DeSantis Wades Into Shutdown Fight

Playbook: “As he searches for new ways to inject himself into the national discourse and make inroads with conservative primary voters, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has decided to throw in with the hard-line agitators itching for a government shutdown at the end of the month.”

“DeSantis spent about 30 minutes on the phone with conservative Reps. Chip Roy (R-TX), Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Bob Good (R-VA) discussing the spending fight as all three men urge Republicans to hold the line, even if it means a government shutdown.”

DeSantis told them: “I got your back. Keep fighting.”
