The former president seemed to place himself as the GOP kingmaker during a speech at the 2021 Conservative Political Action Conference, better known as CPAC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m going to continue to fight right by your side. We\u2019re not starting new parties,\u201d Trump told CPAC attendees, <a href=\"https:\/\/fox59.com\/news\/politics\/live-trump-to-speak-at-cpac-in-first-post-white-house-appearance\/\">according<\/a> to FOX 59. \u201cWe have the Republican Party. It\u2019s going to be strong and united like never before.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The former president also ripped into Republicans who he says are not \u201cAmerican First,\u201d suggesting they\u2019ll be primaried and should be ousted.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, during an interview with Fox News\u2019 Lisa Boothe earlier this month, Trump named a number of standout Republicans as good representations of the future of the party, namely Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL); Sens. Josh Hawley (R-MO), Ted Cruz (R-TX), and Rand Paul (R-KY); former White House press secretary and gubernatorial candidate Sarah Sanders, and Republican South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"12.082191780822\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Asked by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LisaMarieBoothe?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@LisaMarieBoothe<\/a> which Republicans represent future of the party, Trump names Ron DeSantis, Josh Hawley, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Sarah Sanders and Kristi Noem.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Charlie Spiering (@charliespiering) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/charliespiering\/status\/1373994110953136132?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 22, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>DeSantis has quickly become a target of the Left since excelling in his response to COVID-19, no doubt boosting his chances of becoming one of the GOP 2024 frontrunners.
