WEST DES MOINES, Iowa — Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) needled former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley for not taking questions at every campaign event, days before the 2024 Republican primary‘s opening nominating contest.

DeSantis, who will debate Haley one-on-one for the first time on Wednesday before Iowa’s Jan. 15 caucuses, made the criticism and contended the former governor of South Carolina is not dealing well with the added media coverage.
