party than it was before i got there with more influence. reporter: governor ron desantis closed out the events, he did not speak to a party remodel or former president trump, focusing on his accomplishments in florida. we ve shown in florida you can stand up for truth, stand stand on principle, fight the woke elite and you can win. reporter: we heard from chris christie, he was particularly critical of former president trump, specifically for the way he hand-picked his term candidates on basis they denied 2020 election results we heard from senator ted cruz, who said his focus right now is on keeping a seat in senate arthel. arthel: big hints dropped there. thank you. eric.
