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.

—> Desantis will enter the race next week with more money at his disposal than any candidate in history
Hopefully he can find votes to buy on eBay with all that money.

Get used to what? You are sounding as silly as a Democrat, and that is not laudable.

I am a Patriot, Trump is a Patriot. He and I have a lot in common.

Has zip to do with being human. Trump’s the outsider who can’t be bribed. Why do ya think FBI, deep state, lying media, corrupt Republicans/Democrats, Hollywood, Communist, Globalist, BLM, Soros, Anfifa, and DeSantis supporters all want to get rid of Trump?
Hello?

Every candidate wants to defeat the others. You forgot to mention that Hitler also opposes Trump.

“And if Trump somehow is taken out of the race?”
In that case, DeSantis could jump in the race then. Or at the deadlines. Which are currently very far away. If he announces now, it will be in an attempt to defeat Trump. And that is a fool’s errand.

These bastards will unfairly attack every Republican candidate. They are Communists and Neo-Nazis. That is what they do.

Here is the new DeSantis campaign slogan:
Vote Ron. More treacherous than Brutus, more slimy than Clinton.

Seems a bit odd. No?
Don't confuse Responsibility2nd with facts and logic, he has a good nonsensical rant going on!

But what if they do get rid of Trump? What if they’re successful? Then I write in his name.
If you’re going to have a Plan B, it ought to be someone who isn’t a dull, useless lawyer-turned-politician.

if you don’t support trump... you may THINK you are a conservative. YOU are NOT.
purging never trumpers and rino’s will save our nation.
It should be our number one goal. disempowering maga haters, anti trumpers and bush holdovers.
good bye to them all...
