Today in Top Story: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis officially launches his presidential campaign.

The governor chose an unusual venue for his announcement. It came in a glitchy online conversation with Twitter CEO Elon Musk. DeSantis joins a crowded field of Republican candidates. His biggest rival is former president Donald Trump. Former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley may not be far behind. Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina, former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson, and biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy have also entered the race.

Wow.. that's not a very great way to start your campaign. I mean, Twitter? Honestly, I'm just glad Biden isn't running again lol

I wanted Biden to run again

I wanted Biden to run again because people don’t like him.

@above

yeah that's an interesting way to start a campaign lol
actually I'm pretty sure Biden announced a while back that he is running again :(

I absolutely support DeSantis

I absolutely support DeSantis. In my opinion, he would make an incredible president. Much better than the 80 year old, dementia ridden man who can't string together a proper sentence that we currently have leading our country.

Don’t get angry at the man.

Don’t get angry at the man. Get angry at his policies
