A top strategist for Donald Trump, Chris LaCivita, made a scathing remark towards Governor Ron DeSantis on Wednesday night, labeling him a "sad little man" who will be remembered for "chicken fingers and pudding cups." This insult comes after DeSantis expressed his disapproval of Trump using "identity politics" to select a running mate and dismissed the possibility of being Trump's running mate during a call with supporters. According to reports, in the past, DeSantis was seen eating pudding with his fingers on a private jet, and he once mentioned his family's fondness for chicken tenders while speaking to New Hampshire voters in January. Despite DeSantis not holding back in criticizing Trump during the call, Trump's campaign conveyed that they were "honored" to receive DeSantis' endorsement.
