Trump Responds to DeSantis Endorsement: Uniting Forces to Take On Biden in 2024
Former President Donald Trump expressed his gratitude and honor upon receiving the endorsement of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who recently suspended his 2024 presidential campaign. In a statement to Fox News Digital, Trump stated, “Very honored to have his endorsement,” and emphasized the importance of unifying behind the common goal of defeating President Joe Biden.
“I look forward to working together with him to beat Joe Biden, who is the worst and most corrupt president in the history of our country,” Trump added, underlining the shared objective of challenging the incumbent president.
DeSantis formally announced his withdrawal from the presidential race through a video statement on X, citing a lack of a clear path to victory. The Florida governor declared, “It is clear to me that a majority of Republican primary voters want to give Donald Trump another chance.” Despite past disagreements on issues like the coronavirus pandemic and the elevation of Anthony Fauci, DeSantis asserted that Trump is superior to the current incumbent, Joe Biden.
The Trump campaign also released a statement in response to DeSantis’s endorsement, expressing gratitude for the support from the Florida governor and other former presidential candidates. With the New Hampshire primary approaching, the campaign called for unity among Republicans to rally behind Trump and defeat what they referred to as “Crooked Joe Biden” and his “disastrous presidency.”
Notably, calls for unity within the GOP have been growing, with figures like former presidential candidates Vivek Ramaswamy and Sen. Tim Scott encouraging the party to coalesce behind Trump. Scott asserted that the race is essentially over, urging the Republican Party to focus on one goal – eliminating Joe Biden by electing Donald Trump.
However, not everyone within DeSantis’s circle is embracing the endorsement. Influencers associated with the Florida governor expressed disappointment, with some posting critical messages and indicating reluctance to unite behind Trump.
We’re not uniting behind Trump.

It’s “Governor Ron DeSantis” now, is it?
No more Rob DeSanctimonious? We’re all just supposed to forget?
They think so. I don’t.
The audacity here to use the line, “It’s time to choose wisely.”
