In a post on X, DeSantis stated that he did not see a clear path to victory and would be suspending his campaign immediately. He expressed his support for Trump, considering him superior to the current Democratic President Joe Biden and deserving of “another chance.”
Loss to Trump in Iowa Elections
DeSantis’ decision came after the internal Republican elections in Iowa, where he lost to Trump. The race between the two candidates involved heated exchanges on various topics, including trade and the military. Recent polls showed that DeSantis had only reached a peak of six percent of the vote.
Remaining Crypto-Friendly Candidate in Republican Primaries
While DeSantis and other politicians have endorsed Trump, Robert Kennedy Jr. stands as the sole crypto-friendly candidate in the Republican primaries. Kennedy Jr. has consistently supported blockchain technology and referred to Bitcoin (BTC) as the “currency of freedom.” He has also criticized central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) for their potential use by governments to control citizens’ financial transactions, a viewpoint shared by Trump.
