Ron DeSantis, the governor of Florida, may have portrayed himself as one of the nation’s strongest cultural warriors, but on Monday his campaign gave first lady Casey the focus with a commercial showing him as a warrior for his family.
He was the father who looked after her children when she couldn’t, said the 42-year-old in an advertisement.
Her husband was there to pick her off of the ground when she could not even stand. When she lacked the strength to defend herself, he was there to stand for her.
Florida’s whole state will see the commercial as DeSantis runs for re-election to a four-year term.
It happens after his wife received a breast cancer diagnosis.
The governor said that his wife got rid of cancer in March following therapy and surgery.
DeSantis, 44, has already established himself as a front-runner for the Republican presidential candidacy in the 2024 race, should Donald Trump decide not to run.
Supporters claim that Casey has demonstrated her abilities as a first lady by serving as a spokesperson for her husband’s political agenda.
Additionally, she has assumed a prominent position in Florida following Hurricane Ian by attending press conferences with her husband.
Critics question if her hubby has the retail politics expertise and warmth with voters in local settings necessary to make an impact in early states like Iowa and New Hampshire, which are vital to presidential candidacy, given his rising national image.
The first lady appears in the campaign advertisement while seated cross-legged on a sofa, surrounded by plush cushions and sophisticated furnishings.
The governor is shown in the video with kids dangling from his shoulders.
‘I get asked all the time, who is Ron De Santis? He’s the kid who grew up right here in Florida working his tail off paying his own way through school and volunteering to serve in the Navy and deploying to Iraq,’ she says.
‘He’s the man who I fell in love with from the moment we met. And he’s the dad of three very rambunctious, energetic children: Mamie, our two-year-old little comedian, Madison, our beautiful sweet five-year-old, and Mason, our four-year-old athlete.’
