DeSantis' gambling pact allows a Trump Casino in Miami.
The Florida legislature is reconvening this week for a special session for the sole purpose of considering the 30-year gambling pact DeSantis negotiated with the Seminole tribe. The headline news is that the pact would legalize sports betting and guarantee at least $500 million a year in revenue for the state in the first 5 years. The pact also has a series of special provisions related to just Broward and Miami-Dade counties that have the effect of allowing Trump to establish gambling operations at his Doral property. Eric Trump was talking about this in the last year but has been quiet lately. Somebody told him to STFU?
