First on Fox: Ron DeSantis officially launches 2024 presidential campaign with 'Great American Comeback' video
DeSantis instantly a top-tier contender in 2024 GOP nomination race alongside former President Trump

By Paul Steinhauser | Fox News


EXCLUSIVE - Saying that he's "running for president to lead our great American comeback," Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida formally launched his White House campaign in a video released by his political team.

"Our border is a disaster. Crime infests our cities. The federal government makes it harder for families to make ends meet. And the president flounders," DeSantis charges in the video, which was shared first with Fox News on Wednesday.

The governor argues that "decline is a choice. Success is attainable. And freedom is worth fighting for. Righting the ship requires restoring sanity to our society, normalcy to our communities, and integrity to our institutions. Truth must be our foundation — and common sense can no longer be an uncommon virtue. In Florida, we proved it can be done."

After months of buildup and speculation, the DeSantis campaign released the launch video in conjunction with the Florida governor's appearance on Twitter, where he was expected to also formally announce his 2024 candidacy in a 6pm ET interview with business magnate and Twitter owner Elon Musk.

In the video, DeSantis points to his record in Florida, emphasizing that "we chose facts over fear, education over indoctrination, law and order over rioting and disorder. We held the line when freedom hung in the balance. We showed that we can — and must — revitalize America. We need the courage to lead and the strength to win."

He has a good message, but his delivery is weak.   :shrug:

I understand that. Although people on this board will disagree with me, Abbott is a good governor, but a lousy speaker.

Maybe DeSantis can get some coaching...or hopefully people will look past his delivery and focus on the message.

BREAKING: In Announcement Speech, Ron DeSantis Calls For A Great American Comeback And Blasts Biden
    by: Sterling Mosley

On Wednesday evening, Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) launched his official campaign on Twitter Spaces with Elon Musk. Despite various initial crashes as hundreds of thousands attempted to join, Ron DeSantis officially announced.

"I think you broke the internet there," said moderator David Sacks with Elon Musk adding that the new venue will come with bumps along the way.

"I am running for the President of The United States to lead our great American comeback," DeSantis began, adding that Biden lacks vigor, takes his cues from the woke mob, and is leading the country in the wrong direction.

"We should choose a new direction," DeSantis said, adding that America should "replace the woke mind virus."

"America is a sovereign country, our borders must be respected," DeSantis continued. "The public deserves safe communities....we can't have inmates running the asylum."  ...
At least, unlike Trump, he knows and acknowledges that the enemy is Biden  - not other Republicans.

Anything but something that sounds like an apology.

On the other hand, he doesn't want to come across too rehearsed.  From all the times I've watched his press conferences and speeches, he truly has a very laid back personality.
