In late May, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis formally announced his candidacy for the 2024 presidential race. DeSantis, fresh off a cozy cruise to reelection as governor, made freedom, rejecting decline, and delivering for America key hallmarks of his campaign.

The Florida governor enjoys much support among the GOP base, especially from voters who feel disillusioned with chaos in politics and long for a return to sanity.

Throughout DeSantis' campaign, former President Trump and Trump's supporters have unleashed numerous attacks against him. However, rather than going after DeSantis on policy issues, the attacks tend to focus on what Trump supporters think of his shoes, attire, or "charisma."

Meanwhile, the Florida governor has made it clear he's going to focus on policy and getting the job done. This looks to be paying off, as DeSantis is now expected to secure a critical endorsement in the GOP primary.

Iowa governor set to endorse DeSantis for president

Earlier this year, DeSantis appeared at the Iowa State Fair and other political events with Iowa Gov. Reynolds. This morning, news broke that Reynolds will endorse her Floridian counterpart tomorrow.

It is during this time that DeSantis will host a rally with supporters in Des Moines, just ahead of Wednesday's third GOP primary debate. On Tuesday, the Iowa governor will also convene with DeSantis for another political event in Davenport.

A significant win for the Florida governor

An endorsement from Iowa's governor carries major weight for Republicans in presidential primaries. Even in the months leading up to today's announcement, many Americans expected Reynolds to ultimately back DeSantis, despite her initially taking a neutral stance in the GOP primary.

On social media, the Florida governor's supporters are celebrating the news of Reynolds' coming endorsement tomorrow. They also believe having the official support of Iowa's governor will help DeSantis ultimately win that state.

While Trump supporters and others continue to insist that DeSantis stands no real chance of prevailing, backers of the Florida governor believe otherwise. They've also predicted that in the event of DeSantis securing Iowa in the GOP primary, he'll easily win the Republican Party's nomination as well.
