However, he didn&#8217;t explicitly confirm whether he was going to enter the race or not in an interview for Fox News that is scheduled to be aired on March 23. He pointed out that if he ran a race, he would be up against Biden, since he thinks that he failed the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf I were to run, I\u2019m running against Biden,\u201d DeSantis said. \u201cLike we [him and former President Donald Trump] are competing for the Republican, potentially, I get that, but ultimately you know the guy I\u2019m gonna focus on is Biden because I think he\u2019s failed the country. I think the country wants a change. I think they want a fresh start and a new direction and so we\u2019ll be very vocal about that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked about his prospects of winning the 2024 presidential race against Biden, he expressed confidence in his ability to win by highlighting his success in the midterm election.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI won with independents by 18 points,\u201d he said. \u201cand so that will be the same formula that we would take, and honestly forget about me, I think anybody should take the formula like that nationally.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>DeSantis on \u2018Woke Ideology\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>DeSantis went on to praise Florida&#8217;s stand against the so-called \u201cwoke\u201d ideology. DeSantis has recently proposed blocking state colleges from having programs on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and the neo-Marxist ideology, critical race theory (CRT), which the Biden administration has prioritized.<\/p>\n<p>During a recent discussion on CRT and DEI, the governor declared that Florida will \u201cnot going to back down to the woke mob,\u201d adding that students will \u201creceive an education, not a political indoctrination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biden has criticized Florida\u2019s efforts to prevent what DeSantis calls efforts to \u201ccastrate\u201d young children, branding them \u201cclose to sinful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On Monday, Florida voted to approve a six-week abortion ban, although the bill includes exceptions for rape and incest.<\/p>\n<h2>\u2018I Can\u2019t Worry About the Political Fallout\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>The bill, which still needs to be considered in another Senate committee before it heads to the full Senate, runs contrary to Biden\u2019s efforts to bolster access to abortions.<\/p>\n<p>Biden and DeSantis have also been at odds over a number of other key issues, including COVID-19 vaccine mandates. Ultimately, DeSantis believes being Florida\u2019s governor has prepared him for a possible presidency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat I\u2019ve been called upon to do as governor is make the right decisions when it wasn\u2019t easy,\u201d DeSantis said. \u201cI can\u2019t worry about getting criticized. I can\u2019t worry about the political fallout.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis\u2019s remarks come as he and Trump remain ahead in many 2024 polls. However, DeSantis has not yet announced his candidacy, and Trump is being investigated by a New York grand jury over his alleged payment to pornographic actress Stormy Daniels.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis appeared to defend Trump, who has publicly criticized him in the past, during a press conference on Monday in which he took aim at District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who\u00a0is leading the investigation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have not seen any facts yet, and so I don\u2019t know what\u2019s going to happen but I do know this: The Manhattan district attorney is a Soros-funded prosecutor and so he, like other Soros-funded prosecutors, they weaponize their office to impose a political agenda on society at the expense of the rule of law and public safety,\u201d the governor said.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> &#8230;..<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p> &#8216;Continue Reading More From <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/the-country-wants-a-change-desantis-details-how-he-can-beat-biden-in-2024_5140887.html?utm_source=partner&#038;utm_campaign=conservnewsd\">&#8220;DeSantis Says He Could Win in 2024, but Stops Short of Announcing a Run&#8221;<\/a>&#8216;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11px\"><em>&#8220;The views and opinions expressed here are solely those of the author of the article and not necessarily shared or endorsed by Conservative News Daily&#8221;<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Florida Gov.
