2024 presidential hopeful Gov. Ron DeSantis has been involved in a car crash in Tennessee while traveling to a fundraiser, his campaign confirmed to DailyMail.com.

A Chattanooga Police spokesperson confirmed that a DeSantis staff member suffered minor injuries after four cars in the motorcade escorting the governor collided following a traffic slow down. The governor and his team continued on to their campaign fundraiser after the crash that occurred on the I-75 South near the 2.8 mile marker.

The Florida governor and his team were involved in the crash while traveling to an event in Chattanooga, Tennessee. DeSantis is expected to hold three fundraisers throughout the state this morning and into the evening.

He is doing a swing through southern states this week, and then is heading back up to Iowa to continue his 'Never Back Down' bus tour throughout the early voting state.

From the article, it appears the re-boot of the desantis campaign is going to be fund raising.

It also appears that they are fully commited to working with the neverbackdown super pac in doing campaigning together - Something that is illegal per FEC regulations.

I guess breaking the law no longer matters to desantimonious, as long as he wins....

Ironic and prophetic at the same time.

Such a great analogy, of his Pres campaign.

What's the use of trying to follow the law when everyone else is breaking it, or looking like he's breaking it?

My thinking is that this is going to become the 2023 equivalent of Bob Dole falling off the stage--"if DeSantis can't keep his entourage from cracking up, how can anyone trust him keeping his cabinet from cracking up?" will become the thought of more than a few.

“four cars in the motorcade escorting the governor collided following a traffic slow down”

Sounds like the lead car was following too close, and all the other cars in the motorcade were doing likewise.

Well, I guess that’s another novel way of shooting yourself in the foot.

Think anything’s trying to tell you something there, Mr. DeSantis?

- Desperation move - resorting to rear enders to attract Dem voters.

- At least it wasn’t a train wreck.

Oh Boy. Wait till Trump hears about this!
He’ll be talking about what it means as a metaphor for Ron’s campaign. I could almost guarantee it.
If not Donald Trump himself, then Don Jr. will do so on Twitter.

Let me guess, Ron sitting in the back seat leaned over and grabbed the wheel from the driver causing the cars to crash.

Something of a metaphor for his Presidential campaign.
I like Ron as Governor. He should have waited.
