Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has criticized Nikki Haley for not endorsing former President Donald Trump as she exited the 2024 presidential race.

Republican Party candidates for the 2024 race are required to sign a loyalty pledge in order to take part in debates. The pledge required they support any person nominated by the party as the final candidate. All GOP candidates who participated in the debates, including Ms. Haley, signed it. “I signed the pledge. And you sign the pledge saying that you’re going to not take your ball and go home. And so I honored the pledge, and she’s going to have to make a decision about whether she wants to or not,” Mr. DeSantis said in a March 6 interview with Newsmax while talking about Ms. Haley’s endorsement.
