Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) criticized former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley (R) for not endorsing former President Trump after she bowed out of the Republican primary race earlier this week, referencing the GOP’s loyalty pledge.
“I signed the pledge and you signed the pledge saying that you’re gonna not take your ball and go home,” DeSantis said on Newsmax’s “The Balance” with Eric Bolling when asked about Haley’s decision. “And so I honored the pledge and she’s gonna have to make a decision about whether she wants to or not.”
“But the idea that somehow circumstances have changed — I think we all knew what we were doing when we did that, and you got to make a judgment about whether that’s meaningful to you, he added. “And so for me, I tell people, you know, if I say I’m going to do something, I’m going to do it.”
The Republican National Committee (RNC) required candidates who wanted to qualify for the debate stage to sign a loyalty pledge vowing to support the eventual GOP nominee. Haley, along with the other major candidates in the race, signed the pledge.
