Ron versus Don is on! Ending months of speculation, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis declared his presidential candidacy Wednesday, setting up a seismic clash with former President Donald Trump for GOP supremacy. The graduate of Yale University and Harvard Law School formalized his White House bid in a filing with the Federal Election Commission. A more formal announcement is expected to follow at 6 p.m., when DeSantis is appearing in a Twitter Space with Elon Musk. DeSantis said last week he feels he has a much better chance than Trump of winning the election, and that “When we say we’re going to do something, we do it, and get it done.” He acknowledged he has recently faced criticism, including from other candidates and “two presidents,” but voters he has met are on his side.
