Townhall columnist Kurt Schlichter, Fox News chief political analyst Brit Hume, and Real Clear Investigations senior writer Mark Hemingway react to the news of Gov. Ron DeSantis' (R-Florida) announcement that he is suspending his campaign and endorsing former President Donald Trump.
God bless Ron DeSantis and his family. He has served his country in uniform and as a conservative leader, and he has a great future ahead of him.

The Republican voters have spoken and spoken clearly, and I’m proud to have supported him.
I join his endorsement of President… https://t.co/NNQeTzmRL2
Very simple. It's premise was wrong. It was based on the view that after the loss in 2020, the post-election grotesqueries and the 2022 disappointment, Republican voters were ready to move away from Trump. They weren't. https://t.co/5ZcNlHxXZl

Honestly, a smart move by DeSantis — no path forward, and his future ambitions probably depend on a significant role in a Trump administration. Which Trump would be smart to give him.

"I am today suspending my campaign," Gov. DeSantis said in a video tweeted by @RonDeSantis.
