Ron DeSantis is coming to New York for a private presidential campaign fundraiser that's set to be hosted by at least four Wall Street executives, including one with past ties to a firm backed by liberal billionaire George Soros, a frequent target of DeSantis and other Republicans. The event is scheduled to take place June 29 at the swanky Yale Club, according to a copy of an invitation seen by CNBC. It will be one of DeSantis' first fundraisers in the Big Apple since he officially launched his campaign for president last month. Shortly after publication of this story, Ardire called CNBC to say that he was added to the gathering's host list by "mistake." DeSantis is still governor of Florida and GoldenTree has an office in West Palm Beach, Fla.
