Nope. desantis has been deliberately lying about his intent to run for president, since back when he debated charlie crist when he was running for re-election for governor -

“You’re running for governor,” Crist said, looking at DeSantis as the governor looked forward. “Why don’t you look in the eyes of the people of the state of Florida and say to them if you’re re-elected, you will serve a full four-year term as governor. Yes or no?”

DeSantis said nothing as four seconds ticked by and the debate hall started to fall quiet.
“Yes or no, Ron?” Crist asked again.

“Well, listen,” he said, “I know that Charlie’s interested in talking about 2024 and Joe Biden, but I just want to make things very, very clear. The only worn-out old donkey I’m looking to put out to pasture is Charlie Crist.”

Crist to DeSantis: Will you run for president? Florida governor refuses to say in caustic debate

He could have been honest and said No, which likely would have caused him to lose the election.

He could have said I haven't decided yet, which would have hurt his chances less badly.

What he did was give a non answer, showing he was deliberately being deceitful and lying about his intent.

The lying that continues, with the game playing he does when questioned about his polling or when he's going to announce his offical campaign.

So, do you like people to be lying to you constantly?

How can you tell if desantis is telling the truth or not?
