Despite Glitches, Ron DeSantis Takes In Huge Haul in Donations

Ron DeSantis encountered a few hiccups during his 2024 campaign launch on Wednesday evening, but he quickly found his stride. After engaging in a 75-minute policy discussion with Elon Musk, the Florida governor proceeded to high-profile interviews with Mark Levin and Trey Gowdy, followed by a tele-town hall with voters.

DeSantis Takes Aim at Trump Before Expected Announcement

Governor Ron DeSantis, who is expected to announce his presidential candidacy soon, directly criticized Trump’s recent remarks, suggesting that Florida’s new six-week abortion ban was “too harsh.” DeSantis pointed out that Trump had avoided stating whether he would support the bill. Former President Donald Trump appears to be shifting his position, and the Florida Governor is seizing the opportunity to challenge him on this divisive issue. The subject of abortion is likely to be a key issue in the 2024 Republican primary.
