Trump has taken issue with DeSantis' approach in Florida to the insurance crisis, recreational marijuana and abortion. And Trump's incoming chief of staff is Susie Wiles, who was ousted by DeSantis after she helped him win his first gubernatorial bid in 2018.

The article from the Miami Herald discusses the ongoing legal and political battle over Florida's new congressional map, which was signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis in April 2022. This map, which significantly altered the state's political landscape by dismantling a North Florida district previously represented by Black Democrat Al Lawson, has been challenged in court for allegedly violating the state's Fair Districts amendment. This amendment aims to prevent the diminishment of minority voting power. Critics argue that the map, which resulted in Republicans gaining four additional seats in the U.S. House, was gerrymandered to favor one political party. The case has reached the Florida Supreme Court, where arguments focus on whether the map adheres to the state's constitutional standards for redistricting. The outcome could potentially lead to the map being redrawn, affecting the political representation in Florida.
