Donald Trump went from being a mentor to a competitor for Ron DeSantis
According to polls, the 44-year-old conservative hardliner is currently the most promising Republican candidate alongside former President Donald Trump. Trump had already announced in November that he would enter the race for the presidential candidacy for the 2024 election. DeSantis has been governor of the southern US state of Florida since early 2019. In November 2022 he was confirmed in office with a strong result – which also strengthened his position in view of his aspiration for higher things.
