Miami Mayor Francis Suarez spent months struggling to get the campaign donations, attention and support he needed to keep his long-shot quest for the Republican presidential nomination alive.

That ended Tuesday, when Suarez announced he would be suspending his campaign, making him the first Republican to drop out of a nomination contest that is both crowded and heavily favoring former President Donald Trump.

“While I have decided to suspend my campaign for President, my commitment to making this a better nation for every American remains," Suarez said in a statement.

“I look forward to keeping in touch with the other Republican presidential candidates and doing what I can to make sure our party puts forward a strong nominee who can inspire and unify the country, renew Americans’ trust in our institutions and in each other, and win.”

Suarez did not offer his endorsement to any of the remaining candidates.

Suarez failed to make the debate stage in Milwaukee, despite having reached, he claimed, the threshold for 40,000 individual donors. In his quest to get more donations, Suarez offered people a chance to get front-row seats to see legendary Argentine soccer player Lionel Messi in his first game playing for Inter Miami.

But with dismal polling numbers – the last three major surveys had Suarez with zero support of GOP primary voters – Suarez did not qualify for the debate stage. While campaigning in New Hampshire weeks ago, Suarez said that candidates who did not meet the thresholds for the Milwaukee debate should drop out.

As the only Hispanic in the GOP presidential race, Suarez – the 45-year-old son of Miami's first Cuban-born mayor – at first appeared to be someone who could build on the party's inroads among Latino voters. Exit polls show that Hispanics – especially in Republican Florida – are moving more toward the GOP, although Democrats still hold a commanding lead among the voter group nationally and in battleground states like Arizona and Colorado.

Suarez was also an early proponent of vaccinations for COVID-19. He has clashed with his state's GOP governor, Ron DeSantis, criticizing his foe for the GOP presidential nomination for the expansion of the "don’t say gay" law in schools and the handling of the slavery curriculum in classrooms.

Nor has Suarez been a reliable enemy of President Joe Biden. At an event at the White House in early 2021, Suarez said he spoke with the president about the pandemic and climate change, adding that he had more communication with the Democratic president than with Trump, when he was president.

"I've spoken to the president and vice president more times in the short period that they have been in office than I had spoken to the prior administration entirely," Suarez said at the time. "To me, that's an intentional desire on their part to really plug in with the mayors."

In the months he has been campaigning, however, Suarez – who did not support Trump in 2016 or 2020 – has shied away from criticizing the GOP's front-runner. In June, Suarez hinted he would pardon Trump, saying the tool is useful for presidents to “heal the country.”

近期，国乒男队队长王楚钦在国际、国内比赛中接连输球，引发球迷热议。

C | 2026年WTT美国大满贯比赛，王楚钦在男单1/8决赛以大比分1-3不敌林德，爆冷出局。混双决赛，王楚钦和孙颖莎被韩国组合击败，获得亚军。转战乒超联赛，王楚钦的状态似乎仍未有明显好转。在男团常规赛山东魏桥与四川丰谷的单打比赛中，他以1-2不敌张煜东。在此之前，王楚钦在首秀中惨遭徐海东逆转，同样以1-2的比分落败。一时间，“王楚钦爆冷输球”“王楚钦状态堪忧”等话题冲上热搜，不少球迷纷纷发表各自的看法。有网友留言：“这水平，请问奥运会能做定海神针吗？”“输了就输了，奥运会又不是没输过。”“与马龙、樊振东相比，他还不足以挑起国乒男队的大梁。

D | ”不过，也有球迷指出，王楚钦在比赛热身时多次揉自己的手腕，可能受伤了，相信他会慢慢找到最佳状态。上个奥运周期，国乒男队坐拥马龙、樊振东两员大将，王楚钦、林高远等也多次代表球队参加国际大赛。巴黎奥运会，王楚钦在混双项目与孙颖莎联手夺冠，为国乒拿到奥运会乒乓球项目第一枚混双金牌。然而在男单比赛中，王楚钦却早早被淘汰出局，止步32强。

E | 好在樊振东不负众望，帮助国乒男单守住了防线，获得冠军，职业生涯实现全满贯。老将马龙则是在团体项目发挥作用，用一枚金牌为奥运之旅画上圆满句号。洛杉矶奥运周期，樊振东以一种令人遗憾的方式“被迫”退出世界排名，马龙也逐渐淡出国家队。

F | 如此一来，王楚钦成为了国乒男队的中流砥柱。由于近期整体成绩欠佳，王楚钦遭到了不少质疑。2026WTT美国大满贯，孙颖莎和王楚钦在混双决赛以2-3输给了韩国队的林钟勋和申裕斌。

G | 男单赛场，王楚钦以1-3不敌林德，意外无缘八强，国乒男队最终未能夺冠。2026年全国乒乓球锦标赛，王楚钦和孙颖莎搭档混双，两人在半决赛输给了袁励岑和王艺迪，无缘决赛。当时，不少球迷指出，王楚钦的表现不够理想，即便孙颖莎全力弥补仍难挽败局。转战乒超联赛，王楚钦在常规赛第一阶段与梁靖崑、周启豪等代表山东魏桥出战。首秀中，王楚钦以1-2惨遭徐海东逆转。短短几天后，王楚钦又在与四川丰谷队选手张煜东的单打比赛中以1-2告负，遭遇第二场失利。
