Ron DeSantis abandons his race for the White House. Florida’s governor, once seen as Donald Trump’s main rival on the road to the Republican nomination, announced Sunday, January 21, that he is throwing in the towel on the billionaire ahead of the November presidential election. The withdrawal comes from Nikki Haley, the former governor of South Carolina, who is the latest obstacle to the nomination of the much-loved Donald Trump as her party’s nominee.
“I am suspending my campaign today”said Ron DeSantis in a video published on X (formerly Twitter). “It’s clear to me that most Republican primary voters want to give Donald Trump another chance.”
The former US president said “Very honored” By choice of the Governor of Florida. “I look forward to working with him to defeat Joe Biden, the worst president in our country’s history,” Donald Trump told Fox News.Ron DeSantis, with hardline positions on immigration and abortion, came in second during the Iowa caucuses on Monday, January 15, far behind Donald Trump, with 21% of the vote to 51% for the former president. His announcement comes two days before a primary in the US state of New Hampshire, where polls have him trailing.
“I cannot ask our volunteers to donate their time and money if we do not have a clear path to victory”He justified it in front of the American flag in his video. “I had disagreements with Donald Trump, like on the coronavirus pandemic,” But “Trump is better than incumbent Joe Biden, that much is clear,” added the 45-year-old.
Nikki Haley is in third place in the state of Iowa (19% of the vote), but could benefit from the support of many independent voters in New Hampshire. “Ron DeSantis is a good governor and I wish him well,” Nikki Haley, 52, responded in a press release. “So far, only one state has voted. Half the votes went to Donald Trump, the other half didn’t,” she pointed out. “Voters deserve a say in whether we go down the road of Trump and Biden again.”
