Pro-DeSantis PAC will help Trump move from Florida to California

A super PAC formed to boost Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s presidential bid said it will chip in to help Donald Trump move to California — after the ex-president ripped his home state in a series of attacks.

“Donald Trump has so deeply disparaged the state of Florida by calling it the ‘worst state,’ we … will help him leave by offering financial assistance to help him move to his beloved California,” Chris Jankowski, CEO of the Never Back Down PAC, said Saturday in a tongue-in-cheek statement.

There, Jankowski added, Trump “can be close to his good buddy Gavin Newsom, whom he loves so intensely and gets along with so well.”

Trump took heat from conservatives last week when he praised the far-left California governor for being “very nice to me” during his presidency.

Newsom “was always very nice to me, said the greatest things,” Trump said during a Fox News interview.

“That’s why I could never hit him, because he was so nice to me.”

In contrast, Trump and his campaign have bashed Florida in recent days, claiming that DeSantis’s mismanagement has made it “among the worst states” to live, find economic opportunity, raise a family, or retire — citing a string of talking points lifted from left-wing sources.

On Tuesday, Trump blasted DeSantis for neglecting what he called “the squatter MESS!” in a post on Truth Social.

“No one will notice when Trump leaves,” Jankowski sniffed.

“The state of Florida will be better off when Trump takes his Soros-fueled, dumpster fire of a campaign to San Francisco, where it will fit right in.”

Trump attempted to mend fences with miffed Floridians Friday — hosting an impromptu pizza party with supporters during a drop-in visit to a Fort Meyers restaurant, and calling the state a “great place” in remarks at the Lee County Lincoln-Reagan Dinner.
