Florida Politics reports:

Never let it be said that the Ron DeSantis political operation lacks for creative fundraising gimmicks. The latest, rolled out just in time for the weekend, a high-stakes auction in which winners may be able to own “an authentic piece of Governor DeSantis’s boots that he wore while serving our country in the U.S. Navy.”

The price? To be determined, with the boot scraps tethered to “ten authentic autographed relic military baseball cards.”
