HARRIS FAULKNER (ANCHOR): Normally, two seconds after an election might not be the time that you talk about 2024, but we were talking about it two days before because former President Donald Trump was already forecasting that an announcement was coming. He didn't say the texture of that but he said it's coming.
GIANNO CALDWELL (FOX NEWS POLITICAL ANALYST): Yeah, and I believe that he will announce today. You know, I was watching our coverage earlier today and Kellyanne Conway, our colleague, was on saying that there should be unity within the Republican Party and not infighting and I absolutely agree with her. But my question to Kellyanne is, have you told President Trump this? Have you told Donald Trump that we shouldn't be attacking Ron DeSantis days before the election when Democrats took his words "Ron DeSanctimonious" and played it all over Florida television and said if Trump doesn't trust Ron DeSantis, why should you? Did she tell him that when we've had a number of other good Republican governors across the country who've not actually said they were going to run, including Ron DeSantis? This is the issue, since the Tuesday election there has been Republican operatives calling all over saying what camp are you in, Ron DeSantis or Donald Trump? And now we're going to have a messy probably primary if one of the Republican governors gets inside.
