Twitter’s Community Notes “fact-checks” post about presidential candidate Gov. Ron DeSantis: On Aug. 31, Trending Politics co-owner Collin Rugg tweeted on X (formerly Twitter), “JUST IN: Governor Ron DeSantis' $50 million super PAC is shutting down as donors are beginning to jump ship. According to the Daily Mail, the super PAC will now be backing Donald Trump after they accused the governor of making ‘rookie s***’ mistakes.” The tweet went on to explain how the PAC began to support DeSantis and why it reportedly reversed that support, with a brief video clip of a former campaign with Trump and DeSantis together. X Community Notes claimed the post was missing context, saying, “The PAC referenced is not affiliated with the DeSantis campaign. The PAC was launched months before DeSantis announced his Presidential candidacy, and has been disavowed by his team,” a disavowal that occurred before DeSantis launched his presidential campaign. The PAC had been called Ron to the Rescue, after DeSantis.
