Florida Republican Congressman Ron DeSantis held a gubernatorial campaign rally at B.B. King’s Blues Club off International Drive in Orlando on Wednesday.

President Trump’s son Donald Trump Junior showed up in support along with conservative commentator Dan Bongino and Florida Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz.
