The Funniest Reactions To Ron DeSantis Dropping Out Of The Presidential Race
Ron DeSantis officially dropped out of the presidential race this weekend.
The Governor of Florida released a concession speech on X, complete with a made-up quote from Winston Churchill.
“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”- Winston Churchill pic.twitter.com/ECoR8YeiMm

Yep, Winston Churchill never said that.
According to the International Churchill Society, Winston Churchill never said the words DeSantis cites to end his presidential campaign."We base this on careful research in the canon of fifty million words by and about Churchill..." https://t.co/EuS5XC2Ch2 https://t.co/LDWKyqvWXW

The reason DeSantis didn't drop out earlier is that he was waiting for his knee pads to come in the mail.

it's not just that DeSantis was easy to bully, but also that he was fun to bully. you really got the sense that he went home and wept every night.

As awkward, insincere, and weak as ever. I've never seen a candidate improve less over the course of a campaign. https://t.co/aFd9vAJ4ZR
