2024 GOP Rivals Stand by Trump Amid Indictment Controversy

TL;DR Summary
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis campaigned in Oklahoma, seeking to position himself as the top alternative to Donald Trump in the 2024 Republican primary race. DeSantis notched the endorsement of Republican Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt, the first governor to formally announce his support for DeSantis. While DeSantis has gradually ramped up criticism of Trump, he has also opted to slam the case against the former president rather than overtly trying to capitalize on it. Trump's legal drama presents both an opportunity and challenge for DeSantis and other campaign rivals of the former president.
