Trump \u2063responded to the endorsement by stating that he was &#8220;very honored&#8221; to have DeSantis&#8217;s support.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with Fox\u200c News Digital, Trump expressed his gratitude for \u200cthe endorsement, stating, &#8220;I \u200cam extremely honored to have his \u200bendorsement&#8230; I am excited to collaborate with\u200c him to defeat Joe Biden, who is the most corrupt and worst president in our country&#8217;s history.&#8221; This statement highlights the shared goal of both Trump and DeSantis to remove Biden from office.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis made his decision to \u2063withdraw \u200bfrom the race known through a video\u2063 posted on Twitter on Sunday afternoon. In the\u2063 video, \u200bhe explained his reasoning behind the endorsement, saying, &#8220;It is evident to me that a majority of Republican primary voters want to give Donald Trump another opportunity. They witnessed \u200dhis presidency being hindered by relentless opposition,\u200d and\u200c they observe \u2062Democrats \u2062still using lawfare to attack him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While DeSantis acknowledged that he has had disagreements with Trump in the past, specifically regarding the handling of the coronavirus pandemic and Trump&#8217;s support of\u2062 Dr. Anthony\u2062 Fauci, he still believes that Trump is a better choice compared to\u200c the current incumbent, \u2063Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, DeSantis expressed his endorsement of Trump based on his desire to steer \u2064away from the &#8220;old Republican establishment of\u2062 the\u200c past.&#8221; He believes that a\u2064 return to corporate interests, as \u2063represented by Nikki Haley, is not the way forward for the Republican party.<\/p>\n<p>This surprising move by DeSantis has shaken up the Republican primary race, with many speculating on the\u200b impact\u200b it\u2062 will have on the remaining candidates.\u2064 With his endorsement, Trump has gained a significant ally \u2063and has solidified his position as a formidable contender in the 2024 election.<\/p>\n<p>As the race continues to\u2063 unfold, it will be interesting to see how this endorsement affects the \u200ddynamics within the \u2062Republican party and how it may shape the outcome of the upcoming election.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has withdrawn from the 2024 presidential race and endorsed former President Donald Trump.
