Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis spoke at a pro-law enforcement event held in a catering hall in Staten Island, New York, this morning, amid speculations he would run for president.

DeSantis’s President’s Day appearance in the New York state comes months after his last trip in October 2022, when he was there to campaign for Republican Lee Zeldin during the 2022 gubernatorial race. Zeldin was also present at the Staten Island event today.
