(FreedomBeacon.com)- Last week, Florida’s First Lady Casey DeSantis said her husband’s upcoming book “The Courage To Be Free: Florida’s Blueprint for America’s Revival” “will inspire more people to join the fight.
In a tweet last Wednesday, Casey DeSantis described Florida’s popular governor as “a fighter,” arguing that DeSantis “defended liberties & livelihoods in the wake of unrelenting attacks.” She said her husband is the embodiment of “courageous, principled leadership,” adding that this was why Florida reelected him in a landslide.
The Republican governor’s book is expected to be released in late February, leading some to speculate that it may be a sign that Ron DeSantis is planning a presidential run.
According to the publisher, DeSantis’ book will detail his time at Yale and Harvard, his service in Iraq, his time in Congress, and the work he has done as Florida’s Governor.
Writing a book is often considered a precursor to a presidential run.
Already this year, several potential 2024 Republican candidates have released memoirs.
Former Vice President Mike Pence is currently on a nationwide book tour for his memoir “So Help Me God.”
Former US Ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley published her memoir, “If You Want Something Done: Leadership Lessons from Bold Women” in October.
Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, another likely 2024 contender, will be out with his memoir, “Never Give an Inch: Fighting for the America I Love” in January.
Before the midterms, DeSantis repeatedly downplayed the talk about him jumping into the 2024 GOP primary, saying his only focus was on his reelection campaign.
However, his landslide victory in November has only increased the buzz surrounding a possible DeSantis presidential campaign.
Two weeks ago, DeSantis received multiple standing ovations during his keynote speech at the Republican Jewish Coalition’s annual leadership meeting, an event that was considered the first major 2024 GOP presidential cattle call.
During his address, DeSantis repeated his pledge, “I have only begun to fight.”
