<p>Republican presidential candidate <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/ron-desantis">Ron DeSantis</a> rejected former President Donald Trump&#8217;s claim that he was &#8220;disloyal&#8221; for entering the 2024 presidential race, saying that politicians are not &#8220;entitled&#8221; to support from voters.</p>
<p>The Florida governor made the remarks late last week during an interview with Megyn Kelly when asked about Trump&#8217;s claim that DeSantis &#8220;came over and begged him for an endorsement with tears coming down from your eyes&#8221; during the 2018 Florida gubernatorial race.</p>
<p>DeSantis laughed off the claim, saying that he met Trump out in the open on Air Force One and asked for his support and Trump agreed.</p>
<p>&#8220;But here’s the thing, politicians have to earn support,&#8221; DeSantis said. &#8220;Nobody&#8217;s entitled to support. You know, I am loyal to my family. I am loyal to our Constitution. I am loyal to God. That is where my loyalty goes, I will work with politicians to try to advance what I believe is in the best interests of Florida and the country. But at the end of the day, it’s about who can get the job done. And that’s how I view it.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And it is interesting. He doesn’t say that about his own vice president running against him, he doesn’t say that about his ambassador to the U.N. running against him,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;He does not say that about other people he endorsed in the past, who are now running against him. He only says that about me, because I think he construes me as the only threat to his winning the nomination.&#8221;</p>
<p>When asked about Trump supporters who claim that it&#8217;s not DeSantis&#8217; &#8220;turn&#8221; and that Trump &#8220;deserves&#8221; another shot because he was &#8220;screwed&#8221; over during first term and during the election, DeSantis said that&#8217;s not how America works.</p>
<p>&#8220;We’re a republic, we are not a monarchy, it’s nobody’s turn,&#8221; DeSantis said. &#8220;You have every right to put yourself forward. You know, I believe at this point in history, 2024’s make or break for this country. I am not running to be President, I am running to do something as president for the country.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I think I am the guy that can win the primary, win the general election, and then deliver on all of these things and do it for two terms, which I think is really important, because if you look at Trump&#8217;s first term, he did a lot of good things, Biden reversed almost everything on day one, I think we do need two terms for this stuff to really, really stick. And so I think that I am the only guy that fits that bill,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;So I have responsibility to step up and offer myself for service.&#8221;</p>
