DeSantis's 2024 Presidential Run: Inevitable or In Doubt?

Despite recent rumors that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis may not be ready to run for president in 2024, evidence suggests otherwise. The Florida Legislature has been working at a rapid pace to carry out DeSantis’ legislative wish list, and the governor has an ever-expanding calendar of out-of-state and international travel. Additionally, a super PAC supporting a DeSantis run continues to ramp up, and other moves at the Republican Party of Florida and elsewhere are being carried out. Meanwhile, a Melbourne attorney and business owner, Keith Gross, has announced a primary challenge to Sen. Rick Scott, and Florida House members have advanced a bill that could steer potentially hundreds of millions of dollars from traditional public schools to charter schools to cover construction and building costs.
