According to the New York Post, the 44-year-old GOP politician is expected to announce his 2024 White House bid in May after the current Florida state legislative session comes to an end.

Even more surprising are reports that the preparations for DeSantis’ upcoming presidential run are already “far along” and at least four different political action committees are currently “seeking to draft” the Florida governor to run in 2024.

The NEVER BACK DOWN PAC, one of the four pro-DeSantis super PACs, was recently launched by former Trump Administration official Ken Cuccinelli and is expected to serve as an “approved outside spending vehicle” for DeSantis’ upcoming campaign.

Cuccinelli, who served as former President Donald Trump’s acting director of US Citizenship and Immigration Services, said on Thursday that “grassroots conservatives see [DeSantis] as a leader and a fighter with a winning conservative track record who will lead the Republican Party to victory in 2024.”

“Based on those conversations,” Cuccinelli continued, “I am most confident that we will build an unmatched grassroots political army for Governor DeSantis to help carry him to the White House.”

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, DeSantis would become the third high-profile Republican politician to announce a run for president in 2024 should he announce his White House bid later this year.

“America’s comeback starts right now,” Trump told his audience on November 15. "Today I am announcing my candidacy.”

Meanwhile, former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley announced her 2024 White House bid via a video released on February 14 – nearly three months after Trump’s announcement.

“The Washington establishment has failed us over and over and over again,” Haley said in February. “It’s time for a new generation of leadership to rediscover fiscal responsibility, secure our border and strengthen our country, our pride and our purpose.”
