DeSantis, Pence top 2024 Republican primary surveys – if Trump doesn’t run
Fox News ^ | 3/5/2021 | Paul Steinhauser

To state the obvious: Former President Trump remains the dominant force in the GOP and the most popular figure among Republican voters.

As Trump flirts with a 2024 presidential run to regain the White House, the early data clearly shows that if the nomination race were held today, the former president would be the overwhelming favorite.

Without Trump in the race, a new survey conducted by a GOP pollster who worked on Trump’s 2016 campaign and the then-president’s 2020 reelection campaign, points to former Vice President Mike Pence and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis as the early favorites in what may end up being a large field of GOP White House hopefuls.

But with no formal 2024 announcement from Trump expected anytime soon, the former president will continue to dominate all 2024 discussions going forward.

"I think the elephant in the room is obviously Donald Trump," veteran GOP pollster Neil Newhouse told Fox News. "If the election were held today and if he wants the nomination, he’d be the odds on favorite."

Last weekend at the Conservative Political Action Conference – the biggest and oldest annual gathering of conservative activists and leaders which is better known by its acronym CPAC – Trump returned to the spotlight for the first time since he left the White House on Jan. 20.

Thank God Pence does not have a snowball’s chance in hell...unless he pays Dominion Voting Systems to “win”.

You can go right on believing your nonsense, but thst doesn’t make it so. Pence is the definition of a craven coward and a quisling traitor. He could have saved the Republic but failed abominably. Eff Pence! GOPee Delenda Est!

No to Pence! Even if he hadn’t stabbed us all in the back, he’s not a fighter.

Pence couldn’t even stand up to some big business oligarch when his state passed a law protecting businesses from faggots. I doubt he has the spine to stand up to other countries. He’s simply not presidential material.

What can one say about Pence other than the fact that he turned out to be a huge disappointment and a gutless wonder when it came to standing up for President Donald J. Trump, the greatest President in my over 75 years of life.

Pence-the-Traitor may be allowed to win the primary...but will NEVER be allowed to win the general.
