WASHINGTON, May 17 (Reuters) - Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis will officially enter the 2024 U.S. presidential race next week, according to two sources familiar with the decision, immediately becoming Donald Trump's biggest rival for the Republican nomination and shaking up a contest that largely has been one-sided.
DeSantis will likely file paperwork declaring his candidacy on May 25 to coincide with a donor meeting in Miami, with a more formal launch the week of May 29, according to a source.
The invitation for the May 25 event stated that donors would be put to “work,” an apparent allusion to raising money for DeSantis, according to a source familiar with the event.

Good. His policy has been sound. I look forward to a Republican debate!
Who in the Bush crowd is egging him on?

There is no plan B. There is one plan and Ron DeSantis has no part to play in it. Donald J Trump is starring in this movie.
Only if it looks like he will be the nominee.
Sorry Navymom, Trump is treated by some of his supporters as a god who can do no wrong. They are not open to discussion or reason.
LOL.
BS, DeSantis never said a word about deep state, lying media, rigged elections, criminal corruption by those in government, et al...So why would they go after DeSantis like they have Trump for 7+ years?
Wrong timing, Governor. Not your turn yet
100% they will if he's the GOP nominee, and will continue as such if he's the president. George W. Bush was "literally Hitler" as president, now they're fine with him. Donald Trump is not unique, the second the Republican Party has a new person at the top of its presidential ticket, he/she will be the new monster, guaranteed.
Fools would say that about Mittens. Fools said that about McCain. But guess what? They held their nose and voted for tbe Repub anyway. You’ll do the same.

I asked you before, why desantis, who deliberately lies, jerks people around, and is deceitful, should be, president, and you refused to answer, and began pushing desantis as an alternate, without a reason why.
Now, you say again, if the swamp gets rid of Trump, desantis should be the alternative.
Strangely, you tried to use the arguement previously, Trump would bring back the swamp if elected on electing Trump.
Why do you want to return to a Swamp Administration again?
So the swamp is bad with Trump, but it's okay with the swamp supporting and electing desantis.... hypocrit.
But then again, the desantis supporters here are full of contradictions and mis-representations.... just like desantis is
A little early isn’t he?
He can’t run til 2028.
He’s obligated to be Governor of Florida for a full term isn’t he???
If he’s smart, he will join the Trump ticket as VP.
Then he would be guaranteed an eight year run.
After 4 as VP.
I hope he wises up, it’s not his time yet
Oh, I don’t think so
Maybe a couple, but most are very smart.
Most of us will discuss anything...within reason.
Is Al Stewart running? Is he your guy?
The media Treated Bush like Trump, like Bush was Hitler?
You have one wild imagination.
Tell me slick, how many times did they conduct fishing investigations on Bush and how many times did they impeach and attempt to impeach Bush?
Trump is the most unique and historic president in modern American history. You'd have to dial back to the founders to see this kind of relationship between a leader and the people.
You have no clue. Zip.
The man drank the GOPE koolaid.
Guess you were in a coma for eight years. Hope you feel better.
What are you yammering on about? There were articles of impeachment filed against Bush multiple times, but I could have sworn I was talking about leftists in general and the mainstream press, not the U.S. Congress.
