american comeback. we know the country s on the wrong track. we see it with our eyes. we feel tonight our bones. what i will do is help restore normalcy to our communities, integrity to our institutions, and sanity to our society. we need to win again as republicans. we ve got to dispense with this culture of losing. and if you nominate me, i pledge to you that on january 20, 2025, at high noon, that i ll be the guy on the west side of the capitol with the left hand on the bible and the right hand in the air taking the oath of office as the 47th president of the united states. why now? i think it s because the country s going in the wrong direction. we have another four years of the biden administration, i think some of the damage is going to be irreversible. sean: that was governor desantis right here on fox just moments ago. earlier today his live twitter announcement with elon musk, that did not go well after twitter had one technical glitch after another, but ron desant
