House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) predicted that it won’t be Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis who becomes the Republican Party’s nominee for the presidential race.

Instead, he said in a Sunday Fox Business interview that President Donald Trump will likely be the party’s choice for 2024. In primary polls, President Trump is far ahead of Mr. DeSantis and other GOP candidates—coming in spite of four indictments targeting the former president.
