Ron DeSantis drops out of 2024 presidential race, endorses Donald Trump
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis suspended his 2024 presidential campaign and endorsed Donald Trump as the Republican nominee for the White House, citing the majority of Republican primary voters wanting to give Trump another chance.
DeSantis struggled to resonate with a wider audience and failed to connect on a personal level during his campaign, resulting in stagnant polling numbers and a lack of donor support.
With DeSantis out of the race, Nikki Haley is now the sole contender for the "Trump alternative" vote, positioning herself as the main opponent to Trump in the primary process.
Donald Trump hopes to seal the race for the nomination of the Republican primary in New Hampshire on Tuesday, where his rival Nikki Haley represents the last obstacle on his way after the withdrawal of Florida governor Ron DeSantis.
