Just months after President Donald Trump’s administration quietly moved to undercut a hardline immigration push by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, the two Republican former rivals appeared side by side on Tuesday for the opening of a new migrant detention center in the Everglades.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said President Trump is "very excited" to visit a facility that state officials are calling "Alligator Alcatraz."

President Donald Trump traveled to a remote area of South Florida to tour the state’s newest immigration detention center, dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz,” on Tuesday, coinciding with the same day the government planned to move its first detainees into the facility.
