Ron DeSantis will drop out of the 2024 presidential race if he loses the Iowa caucuses to Donald Trump on January 15, it is claimed.
Two well-acquainted sources within the DeSantis campaign, a significant donor and a high-ranking political operative, told The Hill that if the Florida Governor loses to former President Donald Trump on January 15, he is likely to withdraw from the race altogether.
The announcement would either be made that same night or the following morning - - and with it a reluctant endorsement for Trump and the governor would not move on to New Hampshire, scheduled for January 23.
Good. I hope that he does endorse Trump. If it weren’t for Trump, he would not be where he is now. I remember the GOP primary in 2018 and I voted for a guy named Putnam but DeSantis ending up winning and then Trump got him over the finish line in the general.
I don't think that DeSantis should drop out even if he loses in Iowa. Iowa represents about 1.6% of the total number of delegates needed to win the nomination. That's like conceding a football game to your opponent when the game is less than 2 minutes old. Hell, the game is just getting started.

Its a prediction made by a British tabloid, so .......consider that.
I had heard the DeSantis campaign was not in good financial condition and that was at least 6 weeks ago I read about that. So, not surprised. The timing for him to run wasn't good, as we now know.
DeSantis obviously got bad advice about trying to take on Trump in 2024. No reason at all that he shouldn’t have waited until 2028.
As of right now, I will vote for him 2028, subject to change.
DeSantis was riding high after the 2022 election. Sit out 2024, back Trump and come 2028 the field is clear.
However, my guess is after an overall disappointing 2022 for the Rep. the powers that be in the RNC and the big buck doners were pushing for him to run. Telling him his time was now.
Unfortunately this time last year he began to get bogged down with the Disney controversy and never recovered.
Bad timing for DeSantis, & America, but this is good news for the free state of Florida
Welcome home Governor DeSantis!
