DeSantis recently stated he would refuse to be former President Donald Trump’s running mate if given the opportunity to join him on the ticket, according to NBC News. DeSantis, who has struggled to compete with Trump in primary polling, stated that he’s not “a number two guy,” Fox News reported.
A Twitter photo purports to show DeSantis’ high school yearbook quote. The image shows the Florida governor in a black and white headshot wearing a collared shirt.
“My Mount Rushmore is Jesus, Sir-Mixes-a-Lot, and Nintendo 64,” the quote allegedly reads.
“takes a lot of balls to run for president when you have a skeleton like this in your closet,” the tweet caption reads.
