DeSantis Tells Republicans to ‘Chill Out a Little Bit’

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) said people “just need to chill out a little bit” about his brewing rivalry with Donald Trump, as the two Republicans jostle in what is widely expected to be a brawl for the GOP’s 2024 presidential nomination, Bloomberg reports.

Said DeSantis: “We just ran an election and we have the Georgia runoff coming, which is very important for Republicans to win.”

“DeSantis has been coy about his own presidential ambitions, especially on the heels of his landslide re-election. Still, he’s sending plenty of signals by attending key Republican gatherings, like the Republican Governors Association’s winter meeting in Orlando on Tuesday and a meeting of the Republican Jewish Coalition in Las Vegas at the end of the week.”
