Washington (AFP) - Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, once the leading Republican rival to Donald Trump, ended his election campaign on Sunday and threw his support behind the former president. DeSantis's withdrawal, after months of weakening support, leaves only low-polling Nikki Haley standing between Trump and nomination as the Republican Party's candidate for the US presidential election in November. In a video message, DeSantis said that following his second place finish last week in the Iowa caucuses he could not ask "supporters to volunteer their time and donate their resources if we don't ...

Washington (AFP) - Expanding gun rights and banning books, Ron DeSantis became a darling of US conservatives for embracing an "anti-woke" agenda -- but it was not enough to fuel a White House run against Donald Trump, whom the Florida governor endorsed Sunday as he suspended his campaign. DeSantis had spent years molding his state into the front line of the battle for the soul of America, framing himself as representing a version of Trumpism without the chaos accompanying the twice-impeached, criminally indicted former president. But though DeSantis held on to second place in the polls for mon...

Washington (AFP) - Florida Governor Ron DeSantis suspended his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination on Sunday, saying he would throw his support behind frontrunner Donald Trump. In a video posted to X, formerly Twitter, DeSantis said that after his second place finish last week in the Iowa caucuses he could not "ask our supporters to volunteer their time and donate their resources if we don't have a clear path to victory. Accordingly, I am today suspending my campaign." His withdrawal from the race comes less than two days before the New Hampshire primary, where polls showed him...

Los Angeles (AFP) - Two Republicans jostling for a distant second place behind Donald Trump in their race to be party flag-bearer took potshots at the former US president on Thursday, days before the first vote in the White House nomination process. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and one-time UN ambassador Nikki Haley turned their fire on their party's presumptive nominee just 11 days before Republican voters in Iowa make their choice. Neither candidate mentioned the other much during back-to-back "town hall" events on CNN. Instead, they both sought to paint their own candidacies as a better be...

Washington (AFP) - Florida's Governor Ron DeSantis sought to reset his floundering US presidential bid Tuesday with his first major interview outside of conservative media, an effort largely overshadowed by the legal woes of Republican primary front-runner Donald Trump. Minutes before DeSantis was due to sit down with CNN, Trump announced he was expecting to be indicted for a third time, this time as part of the federal probe into his role in efforts to overturn the 2020 election. DeSantis, 44, had planned to make a splash with a fresh policy announcement on eradicating "wokeness" in the mili...

Washington (AFP) - Long viewed as the most formidable challenger to Donald Trump in the Republican US presidential nominating contest, Ron DeSantis boasts a record of ultra-conservative legislative wins and a pile of campaign cash. Yet the self-styled tip of the spear in what he says is the struggle against the creeping imposition of "cultural Marxism" hasn't been looking all that sharp of late. So where has Florida's pugilistic governor gone wrong? The Twitter fiascoDeSantis's long-awaited entry into the 2024 presidential campaign in late May descended into a fiasco as the launch event, carri...

Showtime pulled a special by Vice News about Florida Gov. Rob DeSantis‘ (R) time at Guantanamo Bay. The network failed to give any explanation for the cancellation. The episode, scheduled to air May 28, was titled “The Gitmo Candidate & Chipping Away.” Marked as the fourth episode, it has been removed from Showtime’s website and press portal and replaced with the following episode, “Detransitioners and Draining the DRC.” This episode is now marked as episode four instead of the DeSantis special. The special would have delved into DeSantis’ time as JAG officer at Guantanamo Bay. Supposedly, the...

Washington (AFP) - Florida governor Ron DeSantis's long-awaited entry into the 2024 presidential campaign descended into a fiasco on Wednesday as the opening of the live Twitter event intended to announce his candidacy was derailed by glitches. The conversation repeatedly crashed as the platform's servers were apparently overwhelmed, and many of the 400,000-plus users who were hoping to listen in missed the 44-year-old conservative throwing down the gauntlet to Republican primary frontrunner Donald Trump. DeSantis finally began speaking after almost half an hour of confusion and chaos -- altho...

Washington (AFP) - Expanding gun rights, defunding diversity programs and banning books, Ron DeSantis has become a darling of US conservatives for his embrace of an "anti-woke" agenda that has fueled his rise in the Republican Party. The Florida governor -- who will announce on Wednesday that he is running for president, ending months of feverish speculation -- has spent four years molding his state into the front line of the battle for the soul of America. As he steels himself for an 18-month campaign against his one-time cheerleader Donald Trump, the 44-year-old is offering Republicans a ver...

Washington (AFP) - He is young, scandal-free, and a darling of conservatives for his embrace of an "anti-woke" agenda that has fueled his meteoric rise within the Republican Party. Yet Florida governor Ron DeSantis has failed to lay a glove on Donald Trump in the race to challenge Democratic incumbent Joe Biden for the White House in 2024 -- baffling observers who see the former president as more vulnerable than ever. On paper, the nomination ought to be a stretch for Trump, who was impeached twice during a single term, lost ground for the Republicans in three election cycles and is mired in c...
