DeSantis is not looking to start ‘his own show’ after guest hosting Hannity, office confirms
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Gov. Ron DeSantis’ office debunked a report from the website “In Touch Weekly” alleging from an unnamed source that the governor is “gunning for his own show” after guest-hosting Sean Hannity’s radio show.
DeSantis filled in for Hannity for the radio show on May 22.
The politician Donald Trump once branded Ron DeSanctimonious is using his guest host gig on Sean Hannity‘s radio show as a springboard to the entertainment spotlight, sources say.
“DeSantis is gunning for his own show,” says an insider, who says the ambitious right winger may be aiming for more than just a guest spot. “Sean better watch his back — Ron’s not one to stay loyal for long!”
“Once again, I’m reminding everyone that unless you hear it from [DeSantis, Casey DeSantis, communications director Bryan Griffin, spokeswoman Christina Pushaw] or me… it’s fake news,” said Jeremy Redfern, the governor’s press secretary.
“Great reminder,” Pushaw said.
The website also alleged that a “confidant” said DeSantis “wouldn’t hesitate to jump ship for a big TV deal.”
“He’s salivating for more,” the report continued. “Even though the petulant pol’s presidential dreams have been dashed, his hunger for the limelight hasn’t dimmed.”
The article appeared in Yahoo News as well.
DeSantis’ gubernatorial term ends in January 2027.
He ran for president throughout the latter half of 2023 and dropped out of the race in early-2024, backing former President Donald Trump.
DeSantis said on Tuesday he will continue raising funds in support of Trump. The two also recently met in Florida to discuss the election and the governor’s involvement in getting Trump elected this November.
