NBC News reports that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will announce he is running for president while talking with Twitter CEO Elon Musk. His slogan is reportedly, “Never Back Down.” That’s uninspiring.
They will host an event on Twitter Spaces, the site’s platform for audio chats, on Wednesday at 6 p.m. ET. This is only the opening and he will begin speaking publicly.
David Sacks will moderate. He is a tech entrepreneur who is a Musk confidant and DeSantis supporter.
The campaign will release a launch video that evening, and DeSantis will begin visiting several early states after Memorial Day.
Last year, Musk said he would support the governor if he were to run for president.
The announcement will coincide with a retreat for high-end fundraisers pledged to support DeSantis in Miami.
I don’t know what Mr. DeSantis will stand for or fight for, so I don’t have anything to say. Except – I will say some conservatives are angry that he is running against Donald Trump, who helped him grab a victory for the governorship from the jaws of defeat.
Allegedly, Gov. DeSantis delayed his announcement because he wanted to fully form his campaign, and with lower expectations.

Well, I just saw the DeSantis ad that was posted and it’s rather pathetic, not inspiring At All. Who the hell approved This, and specifically, who developed it. It’s about as shallow as you can get. In any ad of this type you need something that brings you in and creates an emotional connection, and that is done with certain… Read more »
If DeSantis would have waited he just may have been unstoppable. Baris has interesting poll numbers if the nominee isn’t Trump. I, for one, will never vote for him no matter what, and for one reason. I’m sick of politicians ‘cashing in’. When a politician has a law changed for his own sole benefit, that is a man who is… Read more »
“[DeSantis’] slogan is reportedly, ‘Never Back Down.’ That’s uninspiring.” I’ll say. Yet another Republican who just stands there, waiting to see what the Left is gonna do next, hoping they don’t hurt him too much if he objects to their rolling their juggernaut right over him. And in turn, us. The Left ALWAYS takes the offensive. Always. They’ve turned it… Read more »
Maybe its time for Trump to save his own skin. This man doesn’t deserve all this. The country doesn’t deserve him. Aside from people bitching and moaning on the internet, hardly anyone helps Trump. No taking to the streets. No protesting at politicians offices. Where are all the Patriots, the gun owners, conservatives, Bible carriers? Nothing and nowhere.
I disagree. There is a lot going on at local level with voter integrity. If we can’t resolve this at the Ballot Box in 2024, the only recourse is a full blown Civil War. Patriots are not only keeping their powder dry, the are stocking up on ammo and bigger guns. Have you noticed the increased interest in Bowling Ball… Read more »
DeSantis delayed the announcement for months until he signed the law allowing him to run.
My guess is he may get a small post-announcement boost, then continue his drop.
His Lt. Governor is no conservative. Florida’s future hangs in the balance.
The Vultures are circling overhead hoping that Trump will die before he can be elected. Have they considered that President Trump has 2 Son’s and a Daughter old enough to be President. Don’t think for a Minute that there won’t be 75 million Write-in votes for Trump Jr. and Ivanka.
