DeSantis Drops Presidential Bid, Backs Trump

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has officially pulled out of the presidential race, declaring his endorsement for Donald Trump in a social media statement. Citing the evident preference of Republican voters for Trump’s candidacy, DeSantis asserted Trump’s superiority over current President Joe Biden despite past disagreements on issues like Covid-19 and Anthony Fauci. DeSantis, who had previously committed to supporting the Republican candidate, expressed doubts about his chances of success and emphasized his reluctance to waste voters’ time and resources. Meanwhile, Trump, triumphant in the Iowa primaries with 51% support, maintains a lead in New Hampshire polls, with a projected 50% compared to Nikki Haley’s 39%. DeSantis trails behind with a 6% vote rate in the University of New Hampshire survey.
