This endorsement comes on the heels of a recent Morning Consult poll [SEE HERE] showing Governor Kim Reynolds is “America’s most unpopular governor.”😂🤣😂 How appropriate is that?!
[…] “Gov. Kim Reynolds (R-Iowa) is America’s most unpopular governor, with a 47% disapproval rating, up from 39% in the first quarter of 2023. Her unpopularity increased partly because of a surge in negative sentiment among independent and Republican voters during a year in which she signed a strict anti-abortion law and took a lashing from former President Donald Trump over her apparent closeness with Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.).” (link)
You might remember when I said, and repeated, to “watch the RGA.” Well, surprise, surprise, guess who is the current RGA Chair? Yup, Kim Reynolds. {link} These people are entirely predictable.
[CTH, January 2023] […] “As I’m watching President Trump doing the familiar targeting of the GOPe roadmap, in this instance hitting the Club for Growth (CfG), my spidey senses are telling me their modified 2024 path will involve increased emphasis on the Republican Governors Association (RGA).
In the 2020 midterms, the RGA headed by Arizona Governor Doug Ducey was positioning: specifically positioning Ron DeSantis. If the modified establishment roadmap rolls out as it looks right now, I suspect the RGA will play a key role in it.” (keep reading)
You might not have remembered the way the RGA was positioning [reference the $20 million donation to DeSantis in April 2022, which was always intended as a laundry operation for the 2024 GOP primary], which always had this Reynolds endorsement lined up to be triggered, but at least we know Donald Trump saw the roadmap as outlined.
Back in February, 2023, President Donald Trump was noting the same strategic plays that we were. Fortunately, he was keeping an eye on how the Republican Governors Association (RGA) was intending to execute their anti-MAGA moves against the base working class voters. [Trump Truth]
Once you see the strings on the marionettes, it becomes impossible to return to that moment in the performance when you did not see them.
Lastly, while this endorsement was pre-baked into the 2024 roadmap and entirely predictable, it has been triggered early.
Kim Reynolds endorsing Ron DeSantis is a break from tradition. The Iowa governor rarely endorses a presidential candidate; hence, that was the motive for the plan. The roadmap added this little ‘shock and awe’ move as part of the design long before people were even willing to admit that DeSantis was running. However, the endorsement was not supposed to happen until after the 2023 holidays, when it would be closer to the Iowa caucuses and carry more benefit.
Why did the DeSantis handlers need to trigger this endorsement early? Because DeSantis is going backward in Iowa and Nikki Haley is now pushing ahead of him.
The more the Iowa voters get to see Ron DeSantis, the less they like him.
The GOPe roadmap is collapsing… the timing of this predictable move by the RGA component shows desperation.
The billionaire class of the professional Republican manipulators are failing, Bigly!
Be of good cheer, we are kicking their ass!

“Kim Reynolds told me that she was going to remain NEUTRAL because Iowa was, “Thank you President Trump,” FIRST IN THE NATION. She wanted to campaign with everyone. I told her that I should have “remained neutral” when she asked me to help her get elected, and that I didn’t want or need her to campaign with me. I am now 41+Points up in Iowa!” ~ Donald J Trump
Today is a very good day.
Ron DeSantis has been endorsed by “America’s most unpopular governor.” Sorry, I just can’t stop laughing.
…And Ron & Nikki are going to have another debate fight on television for ‘first-loser’ status. 😂 Pinch me. Best Election Ever!
In before the “that all changes when Trump is in prison” crowd.
So much BS in this post, not sure where to start. Instead, why bother, you and a couple have a quota of posts to get out so go forth and embarrass yourself.
Why don’t you post something about Trump being in court right now, indeed actually on the stand testifying?
Go ahead and start. We can wait.
swarmy Neocon rats huddling together before the Titanic sinks.
Niki Haley is a Hard RINO. She is a globalist hawk and much worst than Desanctimonius policy wise but she is a better campaigner and substantially easier to like. I doubt the Desanctus crowd actually like her but they are so all in against Trump that they are going to try to push her through when it’s all said and done.
Hope you’re enjoying the new legal apparatus because it won’t end with Trump. This new system is here to stau and you won’t even notice it until it happens to someone you care about.
“Coveted” endorsement. Let’s keep it straight.
Hmmm. Yesterday it was a “coveted” endorsement.
Like clockwork...
Poor DeSan-Tard. 🐀🤡
Odd how the chart of “most popular and unpopular governors” is actually cut in the middle of the actual chart, and inverted, to pretend that the Iowa governor is the worst rated governor, when in fact there are 11 incumbents rated worse than her, along with 3 newbies — and most of them are democrats, although being a post to push Trump, I don’t expect this to say anything bad about democrats.
On the other hand, it is completely on-point for a post by pro-Trump people, even here at Free Republic, to be excited to tout a poll showing a high disapproval rating for a conservative governor, a disapproval rating driven by her staunch support of the Pro-Life cause, signing a solid anti-abortion bill.
Of course, Trump Attacked her, and he opposes the pro-life bills that have been enacted in multiple conservative states, prefering to gain personal approval from the pro-abortion crowd by offering to work with Democrats to pass a federal law protecting abortion through a good portion of a pregnancy.
At some point, it will become clear that, in the end, Trump’s move to throw babies under the bus for his own approval ratings will be the thing that hopefully, finally, wakes up conservatives.
Because a President who would attack conservatives for a 12-week abortion ban is a President who will, when his “legacy” is on the line, make a deal with Schumer to appoint a pro-abortion supreme Court to “fix” his place in history.
RINO’s want someone wishy-washy on pro-life matters, if you know what I mean.
