What do you think? Is he running?

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis changed his Twitter username from "RonDeSantisFL" to "RonDeSantis on Monday.

Some speculate this was done in preparation for DeSantis to run for U.S. President. When asked about the meaning of the name change, a senior DeSantis political team official said to "stay tuned," Daily Caller reports:

DeSantis is expected to file the paperwork with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to run for president on Wednesday, coinciding with a donor event in Miami. An accompanying campaign video and visits to early primary states are expected to follow.

If he runs, DeSantis would face Donald Trump, Nikki Haley, Asa Hutchinson, Tim Scott, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Larry Elder in the Republican party primaries.
