DeSantis Presidential Announcement On Twitter A Complete Disaster, Suffered Major Technical Difficulties

Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida faced some major technical difficulties as he attempted to announce his presidential announcement on a Twitter Space hosted by Elon Musk

DeSantis’s announcement on Twitter started late by 25 minutes due to technical difficulties.

During the first several minutes Elon Musk attempted to troubleshoot in real-time but the technical difficulties led many people to leave the Space.

It was arguably one of the worst announcements in US history.

Just listen:

“Well, it’s certainly an incredible honor to have Gov. DeSantis make this historic announcement — *beep bop boop bop bee* …”
