Ron DeSantis: The 2024 Frontrunner (If Trump Doesn't Run?)
National Interest ^ | 3/2/2021 | Rachel Bucchino

Posted on 03/03/2021 6:14:06 AM PST by Onthebrink

A new survey from Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy revealed that DeSantis garnered an approval rating of 53 percent among Florida voters and a disapproval rating of 42 percent.

An approval rating above 50 percent offers a strong foundation for a candidate heading into reelection, as DeSantis is on track to ramp up his candidacy for the 2022 elections in a bold position. The same poll released in July found his approval ratings in a rougher spot, with 45 percent approving and 49 percent disapproving.

When compared to hypothetical competition for an upcoming election, DeSantis carries noteworthy margins over two potential Democratic contenders—state Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried and Rep. Charlie Crist (D-Fla.). The first-term GOP governor holds a 9 percent lead over Fried and an eleven percent advantage over Crist, according to the poll.

“Will the U.S. as we know it still exist in 2024 ?”

Who’s knows at this point? It already doesn’t in some ways. But we still have to keep fighting and never give up. The Dems are not all powerful at this point. And some of our state legislatures are in fact making changes to improve election integrity, and some of the lefty measures the Dems are pushing look like they may be running into trouble.

Don’t count our side out prematurely. The polls said DeSantis would lose in 2018, but of course he won. I honestly thought the country was over with in 2008, but then we got Trump and I realized nothing is truly over until we’ve surrendered and stopped pushing back.

DeSantis is very solid. He’s like a younger, soft-spoken version of Trump. Before he was governor, he was a member of the genuinely conservative House Freedom Caucus. He’s never been a RINO or establishment, and he is a strong Trump supporter. He’s the best governor in the nation as far as I’m concerned, and by far the best I’ve ever lived under. And he has guts and a fighting spirit.

Thanks for the thumbnail profile of DeSantis. Yes, he appears to be solid.

Look for at least one assassination attempt on Trump in the next four years, from an unhinged leftist.

<>Anybody who talks about elections period after the last one is a joke. Free elections are over. Welcome to the USSA. Socialism or worse.<>

If the rats legalize November’s criminality, the GOP shouldn’t nominate anyone, including our beloved Donald Trump.

Why normalize a fake election and a one-party state?
