DeSantis Pledges To Support Donald Trump In General Election
Ron DeSantis, the Republican governor of Florida, recently surprised America by telling us that if Donald Trump wins the GOP nomination, he is going to support him in the general election.
That decision may seem obvious, given that they are both Republicans, but given the battle the two have been locked in lately, it may have started being less and less of a given that DeSantis or other Republicans would support Trump if the former president keeps his current lead.
NEWS: FL Gov. Ron DeSantis says he’ll support GOP nominee when asked if he’d back Trump:
“I am going to support the Republican nominee… at the end of the day you go through these processes & voters make a decision & you live with it,” he said to Wisconsin Right Now Podcast— Kristen Holmes (@KristenhCNN) July 12, 2023
While DeSantis said that he would support Trump, he rejected the idea of a potential Trump-DeSantis ticket.
Ron would rather stay Florida's governor than take a crack at the vice presidency.
DeSantis said that's because the vice president "doesn't really have any authority."
