A new report out today suggests that Governor DeSantis is privately planning a 2024 run for president.
This reporting comes from people who are said to be close to DeSanis.
Here’s more from Newsmax:
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has indicated privately that he intends to run for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, The Washington Post reported.
The Post cited two people familiar with DeSantis’ comments as sources for the news.
The sources said DeSantis, in recent conversations, has described his presidential plans without any warnings that he’s still deciding.
Publicly, DeSantis has not said whether he plans to run. Allies do not expect him to announce until after the Florida state legislative session ends in May, the Post said.
DeSantis will visit Davenport, Iowa, on Friday and Las Vegas on Saturday as he promotes his “The Courage to Be Free: Florida’s Blueprint for America’s Revival.”
It does seem like we are headed for a DeSantis/Trump showdown for the nomination.
If so, it’s going to make for a crazy ride through next year’s primaries.
