Last night Tim Scott announced live on Fox News that he was dropping out of the Republican presidential primary.
DeSantis was one of the first to wish him well, as it were:
Tim Scott is a strong conservative with bold ideas about how to get our country back on track. I respect his courage to run this campaign and thank him for his service to America and the U.S. Senate.
I look forward to Tim continuing to be a leader in our party for years to come.
— Ron DeSantis (@RonDeSantis) November 13, 2023
Scott said he’s not looking to endorse anyone as of yet, suggesting voters study the candidates themselves.
I’m glad he finally dropped out. But on the flip side, Haley is going to spend a ton of money to try and get ahead of DeSantis. So she’s clearly not going anywhere.
