Ron DeSantis Has Another Disastrous Trip to Iowa
National File ^ | July 28, 2023 | CHARLES DOWNS

If Ron DeSantis holds and event in Iowa, but nobody shows up, did it really happen?

Ron DeSantis had another disastrous trip to Iowa on Thursday. His events had low energy, little interest, and horrific policy. This is as DeSantis falls to third place in some state GOP Primary polling.

Photos taken at Ron DeSantis’ Iowa events on Thursday show only 10’s of people in attendance. The Florida Governor has had a sharp decline in attendance in comparison to his May Iowa events.

Policy is a crucial reason for DeSantis’ decline in support. 45th President Donald Trump has exposed Ron DeSantis’ globalist policies. On Thursday, Trump released a video saying, “If DeSantis had it his way, the entire economy of Iowa would be wiped out.”

National File has reported in detail that the Ryan-DeSantis non-tariff trade policy would lead to foreign farms using cheap labor and flooding the American market, forcing American farms to close.

DeSantis told attendees at Thursday’s Iowa event that he would not cut Social Security for current benefactors but would cut it for Americans in the future. This is a horrific message to send to young GOP voters, basically telling them you will be America’s slave. Policy positions like this are why Donald Trump is leading DeSantis with young GOP voters by over 50 points.

DeSantis’ determination to screw over young Americans comes straight out of the Fox News Blackrock Playbook. Fox and Blackrock have been attempting to convince older Americans that the young generation is useless, hoping grandparents and parents sell their homes to Blackrock instead of their children.

DeSantis even had an awkward moment with a kid at an Iowa Fair on Thursday. DeSantis told a kid that the Icey they were drinking had too much sugar. DeSantis claims he supports parents’ rights, but at the same time, he is bossing around someone else’s kid at a fair.

A DeSantis vs Biden matchup is a win win for the globalist. However, Ron’s horrible policies and lousy attitude make him unelectable. This is why Jack Smith added more charges in the Mar-A-Lago case and why the Fulton County DA is on a lawless witch hunt.

DeSantis’ weird personality, combined with his horrific policy, has turned Iowa voters against him.

The Iowa Caucus kicks off the GOP Primary election in January.

Don't know who said this but it doesn't make sense.

Stacking up the charges has driven Trump's poll numbers up.

desantis supporters here are disappearing from defending or commenting on desantis...

and appear to be posting as the anti/nevertrumpers they really were, attacking Trump in multiple threads...

“I was a Trump supporter, but.....” they claim, as they say Trump has no chance of winning against biden... but someone that’s not Trump can...

Right....

I just watched Brett Baer’s interview with Ron DeSantis. Baer posed tough questions. DeSantis was substantive, articulate and authentic throughout. Took no personal shots at Trump, but reminded the audience that up until three days before his reelection, Trump had praised him as one of America’s great governors. Overnight, he became the worst governor. If Trump didn’t feel threatened, he would not have run $25m in attack ads (from the left!)

Just go to any far left wing (deep state) magazine and look up all the hit pieces they have on Desantis. They hate him.

“...up until three days before his reelection, Trump had praised him as one of America’s great governors.”


That’s because Trump saw this ad, and realized that DeSantis wasn’t the next Ronald Reagan, he was the next David Koresh.

This ad is the origin of the Ron Santimonious nickname.

I wondered where Trump got that, now I can see why.

That ad was awful. What was the DeSantis staff thinking? Fortunately, DeSantis was running against the worn-out, old warhorse, party-switching Charlie Crist, so it didn’t really matter.

Yup. They hate anyone who says he’s Republican.

Which, BTW, we Ron supporters didn’t need to be told by EverTrumpers. They keep acting like we don’t know that Dems will still hate Ron or any R and will attack him. As if Trump was the first and we never noticed all these decades that Dems attack Republicans, usually as “Hitler” and “fascist”.

If he doesn’t win Iowa he should drop out. It’s tailor made for him to win. He doesn’t need a huge turnout to win and Iowa caucus goers, If I remember will skew heavily Fundamentalist Christian. Rick Santorum and Ted Cruz both won.

I wont vote for him, but personally, its summer 2023 and I honestly don’t think the november 2024 election is the most pressing thing on peoples minds at the moment. So i dont really consider this to he as bad for him as others make it out to be.
