Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis Ended His Presidential Campaign Sunday, after He was unable to convince Republicans to set aside their Allegiance to Trump, who helped His Political Career.
DeSantis’ run came to a Halt following a dispiriting Second-place Finish in Iowa, a State where He and Allies poured Mmillions into an Aggressive Get-Out-the-Vote effort that featured the Governor visiting All 99 Counties. He spent week after week in the State instead of establishing a Presence in other Early Voting States, like New Hampshire and South Carolina.
DeSantis had initially been considered a formidable Challenger to Trump. But DeSantis was unable to gain Traction in the Primary, with Trump instead steadily consolidating Support and Rising in the Polls before a Dominant Win in Iowa.
DeSantis picked up the Endorsement of Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds and other key Evangelical Leaders in Iowa, but He couldn’t Win over the Bulk of Voters, who remained Loyal to Trump, despiteHhis 91 Criminal Charges.
He also veered away from more Direct Criticism of Trump, telling a Voter during an early January Stop, that He didn’t want to “smear” Trump even though the Media wanted Him to do that.
“I’ve never understood Ron’s approach,” said former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who waged His own long-shot Campaign to bring down Trump. and said that DeSantis did Not give Voters a real reason to Pick him, over Trump. “If you present yourself as New Coke, and Coke’s still on the shelves, they are going to buy Coke not New Coke.”
