Gov. Ron DeSantis left the presidential race after the first caucuses in Iowa this year. But in four years, he may run again, he said on the “Steve Deace Show” podcast.
“We’ll see what the future holds,” DeSantis said.
DeSantis said he viewed this year as “really a hinge point in American history and if we don’t get it right, you know, I don’t know what it’s going to look like in the future. So who knows?”
“When I was in Iowa, a lot of these folks that stuck with the President were very supportive of what I’ve done in Florida. They thought I was a good candidate,” DeSantis said. “I even had people say they think that I would even do better as President, but they felt that they owed (Donald) Trump another shot. And so I think we really made a strong impression.”
The Governor believes he’s “got a lot of support” going forward.
“Most of the people that supported me, whether activists, whether volunteers, whether fundraisers, you know, they’re all on board, you know, for what the future holds. So we’ll be active,” DeSantis promised.
“We’ll be exercising leadership down here in Florida and holding down the fort for freedom. And so we’ll see what the future holds. But I hope we can get a good result in 2024 because if we don’t, it’s going to be tough sledding for this country.”
If the “Left” is “unimpeded,” meanwhile, DeSantis said the country will “need states like Iowa and Florida to be the refuge.”
