DeSantis' Political and Spiritual Journeys Abroad.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis suggested that his prayer at the Western Wall in 2019 may have been responsible for Hurricane Dorian not hitting Florida as hard as expected. DeSantis made the comments during a visit to Israel, which some see as part of a pseudo-campaign tour exploring his potential run for the presidency in 2024. While DeSantis has yet to officially declare his candidacy, his comments have drawn criticism from local officials who say he has been unresponsive to natural disasters in his own state.
