DeSantis bows out, endorses Trump
Hindustan Times
|January 23, 2024
Florida governor Ron DeSantis dropped out of the race to become the Republican nominee for US President on Sunday after coming a distant second in the Iowa caucus, acknowledging that he didn't have a pathway to the nomination and endorsing the candidacy of Donald Trump, his patron-turned-rival-turnedleader.

His decision converts what was a crowded Republican field into a direct contest between Trump, the clear front runner, and former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley ahead of the New Hampshire primary battle on Tuesday.
In a statement, DeSantis said, "I can't ask our supporters to volunteer their time and donate their resources if we don't have a clear path to victory. Accordingly, I am today suspending my campaign." He said that while he had disagreements with the former president, Trump was "superior" to President Joe Biden.
"I signed a pledge to support the Republican nominee and I will honour that pledge. He has my endorsement, because we can't go back to the old Republican guard of yesteryear or repackaged form of warmedover corporatism that Nikki Haley represents," DeSantis added.
