Ronald Reagan was next with 56,&#8221; said Trump. &#8220;Anyway, I gave him my endorsement, he immediately went way up, and won.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Trump, however, took to Truth Social to express his disappointment, recalling a phone call from Stitt seeking his endorsement in a previous election. Despite Trump&#8217;s claims, Stitt made it clear that he did not inform the former president of his endorsement plans.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Now, despite the fact that DeSanctimonious is losing to Biden, &#038; me, Stitt just endorsed him. Wow! He disliked &#8216;the Indians&#8217; &#038; my great Senate pick!&#8221; Trump continued.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Stitt acknowledged that Trump may be upset with his decision, but he believes this is a typical response from the former president when someone goes against him. Stitt also pointed out that Trump did not endorse him during his initial run for governor in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Despite endorsing DeSantis, Stitt assured Cavuto that he will support the Republican nominee for president, demonstrating his commitment to the party&#8217;s unity.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\">click here<\/a> to visit The Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gov.
