Pro-Trump Florida lawmakers fear vindictive governor will slash their projects from budget

Raw Story  

More than a dozen Florida lawmakers who favored Donald Trump over Gov. “I would like to believe that the governor is going to do the best thing for the citizens of our state no matter what.” One signal that's making some pro-Trump lawmakers nervous is DeSantis' comments saying there’s “a little trimming to be done” in regards to the state's higher-than-expected budget. “I chose a side very early on, very much knowing the risks, very much knowing what could have happened,” GOP Rep. Juan Carlos Porras told Politico. “If the governor wants to play politics based on his losing presidential race and hurt a lot of our residents, I don’t think that’s the way you come back and make alliances,” he said. He’s not really hurting me, per se,” GOP state Sen. Ana Maria Rodriguez said.
