Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt Endorses Ron DeSantis for President
Breitbart ^ | June 10, 2023 | Jordan Dixon-Hamilton

Posted on 06/11/2023 10:03:47 AM PDT by Reno89519

Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R) endorsed Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) for president on Saturday, touting the Florida governor’s response to the coronavirus pandemic as one of reasons why he is “confident” DeSantis will win the presidency.

“Governor DeSantis is a strong conservative and principled leader, and I am proud to endorse him for president,” Stitt said in a press release. “As fellow Governors during COVID, DeSantis did not surrender states’ rights and individual liberties over to groupthink.”

...

“In this election cycle, Oklahomans will remember that DeSantis was one of the few who never backed down in the face of adversity, because DeSantis operated with dogged conviction and shared our values for a limited government and free country,” Stitt added.

Stitt’s endorsement came the same week that 20 Oklahoma state legislators endorsed DeSantis.

“As a proven leader, DeSantis has boldly delivered results for the people of Florida that laid the groundwork for a booming economy, an education system focused on student outcomes, and better infrastructure for working families,” Stitt added.

“To deliver these same results all across America and unwind the disastrous liberal mandates of the Biden administration is going to demand a candidate who can win and keep winning as a two-term president,” Stitt concluded. “I am confident that leader is Ron DeSantis.”

Worth repeating: "Governor DeSantis is a strong conservative and principled leader"

Not just talk, actions and results.

I have my reasons for supporting Trump but l would be fine with President DeSantis. He is the best Governor in the country and it’s not even close. The US is racing into the abyss, this really is the last chance.

I might agree...

If not for two things:

Florida’s budgets since he became gov.

And DeSantis has yet to secure Florida’s elections.

Wonder if that has anything to do with Stitt’s endorsement...

And Trump welcomes the new comers. The GOPe never has and never will. Country club members will vote for hard left candidates before welcoming new groups.

DeSantis owned by the donor class and flipped-flopped on the proxy war in Ukraine. He absolutely cannot be trusted.

Jeb! had a great record in Florida. So what?

Trust that candidate won't betray the base of the party is absolutely the most important issue. DeSantis has already destroyed that trust.

Gov Stitt is full of it......DeSantis has no international trade negotiating experience and would put the Country in a losing situation. Kind of like McCarthy, McHenry and Graves.
International negotiations are Trumps Expertise.

Harry Reid incarnate, I haven’t seen yew post your standard two lies about Florida election integrity and Florida budgets in a while.

Yew really need to come up with some new mew material, since your current two has been discredited repeatedly by numerous FReepers. Thinking is hard, but channel your inner Harry Reid and you can do it!
