Ron DeSantis on Tuesday night — take off your jacket and show off your muscle-bound physique.Trump’s evidence: He said he’s seen DeSantis without his shirt on. AdvertisementAdvertisementAs part of his introduction of DeSantis during Trump’s campaign rally at the BB&amp;T Center in Sunrise, Trump told the crowd that DeSantis is in great physical shape.Trump said he used to think DeSantis was overweight when he saw him on TV. “I always thought Ron was a little bit heavy.”Twice-weeklyA lunch-hour look at what's trending in Florida politics. &gt; But that changed during one encounter.“One day I am with him and I pat him on the shoulder and I go, whoa! That’s strong," Trump recalled. “That’s a lot of muscle there. My hand didn’t sink in like it does with a lot of people. And then I see him without a shirt one day, and this guy is strong. He’s not fat. That’s all power. That’s all muscle. I want to tell you that."I said, ‘Ron, you’re one of the few I say it to: Don’t walk around with a jacket all the time. Take it off,’” Trump said.“He’s a great guy, he’s a tough guy, he’s a brilliant guy and he’s our governor,” Trump added.Helen Ferre, the governor’s communications director, said by text after the Tuesday event that the president evidently meant to say he saw DeSantis without a jacket, not without a shirt. The two have played golf together, she said.DeSantis, for his part, praised the president at the rally and touted his signature on legislation banning sanctuary cities, putting conservatives on the state Supreme Court, and getting rid of vestiges of Common Core curriculum.AdvertisementMuch of the credit for DeSantis’ August 2018 Republican primary win goes to Trump, who backed him enthusiastically. Trump recalled DeSantis’ performance in his former job, as a member of Congress, when he was “always protecting me from the Russian witch hunt.” Advertisement
