Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis guaranteed Republicans victory in 2024 if he is the nominee. “The
pledge I’ll make for people is simply this,” DeSantis said. “We need to win again as Republicans. We gotta dispense with this culture of losing. And if you nominate me, I pledge to you that on Jan. 20, 2025, at high noon, that I’ll be the guy in the west side of the Capitol with the left hand on the Bible and the right hand in the air taking the oath of office as the 47th president of the United States. No more excuses.”
