Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis suspended his 2024 presidential campaign with a quote falsely attributed to Winston Churchill — and one that actually came from a Budweiser ad.

Newsweek reports that one early instance of the quote being misattributed to Churchill comes, ironically, from a 1939 ad for Budweiser — a company DeSantis has criticized in the recent past.

    Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.

    - Winston Churchill

      Huh. Weird fake quote choice from someone giving a statement on no longer continuing.
