‘Decline Is A Choice’: DeSantis Releases New Ad Rallying Conservatives To Fight For Freedom

Ron DeSantis, Florida Republican Governor, released a digital advertisement Sunday night to rally conservatives ahead of a possible 2024 presidential run.

“When the world lost its mind… when common sense suddenly became an uncommon virtue… Florida was a refuge of sanity, a citadel of freedom for our fellow Americans and even for people around the world,” The video is almost two minutes long and DeSantis speaks.

The ad features numerous major figures at Fox News — including Laura Ingraham, Jesse Watters, Dana Perino, and Lisa Boothe — touting DeSantis’ repeated successes while serving as the governor of Florida.

“Florida’s success has been made more difficult by the floundering federal establishment in Washington, DC., an inflationary spending binge that has left our nation weaker and our citizens poorer,” DeSantis speaks later in the video. “It has enacted pandemic restrictions and mandates. It has recklessly facilitated open borders. It has imposed an energy policy that has crippled our nation’s domestic production. This has caused many to be pessimistic about the country’s future. Some even say that failure is inevitable. Florida is proof positive that we the people are not destined for failure.”

DeSantis continues to highlight the successes that his administration has achieved in the state. These include becoming the fastest-growing state in the country and ranking #11 in education freedom, #11 in economic freedom, #11 in higher public education.

“Decline is a choice. Success is attainable,” DeSantis closes. “And freedom is worth fighting for.”
