SHOCK POLL: DeSantis Within Single Digits of Trump in New National GOP Primary Survey
Mediaite ^ | June 29th, 2022 | Tommy Christopher

Posted on 06/29/2022 8:10:58 PM PDT by rintintin

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is within single digits of ex-President Donald Trump in a new national poll, the closest he’s been in this or any other reputable poll — and that’s before Tuesday’s bombshell testimony.

A sample of Republican and Republican-leaning respondents to a new Yahoo! News/YouGov poll were asked “Who would you rather see as the Republican nominee for President in 2024?” and given a choice between Trump and DeSantis.

Among registered voters, 45 percent prefer Trump, while 36 percent prefer DeSantis — a nine-point difference that normally wouldn’t seem very close.

But for Trump, in a reputable Republican primary poll, it’s the closest anyone has gotten.

I don’t want DeSantis challenging Trump, because it takes two
of our leading men, and pits them to tear the other one down.

What Conservative in his right mind could find that to be a
great situation.

I’m asking that in general terms, because I was not thinking
of you when I raised the question.

I understand where you are coming from, but I do not want
self inflicted (party) damage done to either of these men.

Maybe if Trump had had a conservative primary challenger in 2020, Trump would have stopped bragging about all the felons he let out of prison, and focus on the crime wave we were suffering. Maybe he would have told Fauci to take a hike. Maybe he would have built up a huge poll-monitoring force to watch the ballot drop boxes and monitor vote counting. And maybe he would have finished the wall.

As it was, conservatives let him slide, and he lost touch with the issues that elected him.

Why do you keep falling for these bogus BS articles?

So we shouldn't bother with primaries in 2024?

DeSantis will run regardless of what Trump does. And he will win because the country doesn’t want another near-octogenarian president.

I love Trump but he will be 78 in 2024. DeSantis' window may be in 2024, if that is his chance, he needs to go for it.

I like Ron better as well, at this point.

But of course I'll vote for whichever R wins the primary. For most of the prez elections in my life, I've been forced to vote AGAINST the Dem rather than excitedly FOR the R.

We aren't picking a religion here. And almost all R's that don't end with 'Cheney' are better than an actual Dem. Please vote against the worst general election candidate, we need you.

We all like to act superior and pretend the Bushes were as bad Dems. Ridiculous!

Recall the other choices: wannabe tank driver - Douche-kakis, inventor of the environment - AlGore and Lurch stand-in - Kerry. ALL as bad as Biden, but more actually alive and active.

WE'D STILL HAVE ROE. Thomas is now the soul of the court and Uncle Sam Alito just killed ROE - both the work of Bushes. NO Dem would have appointed anything like them.

You seem to love tweaking the Trump loyalists. Keep it up. Some of them need the therapy. So many draw the NeverTrump nonsense at the drop of a hat. I understand the unusually emotional connection they have to Trump. He is an unusual character and bigger than life - more so than anyone else alive today.

There is one question that can divide the unhelpful idolizers from the simple dedicated supporter:

Will you vote for DeSantis if he is the nominee?

Those who say NO have a problem.

“How did this strategy of run the same candidate who lost before just wishing on a star it will end up different work for LePen?”

The big difference is LePen was never President of France.

Donald J Trump was the 45th President of the United States.

Your analogy falls short....by a mile.

So you don’t have a conscience. Nobody who posts fake polls trying to gin up a rivalry that does not exist does.

No need to post multiple opuses, though.

No need for the ageism. That’s for liberals, except of course in Biden’s case when expediency calls for it.

Still promulgating the notion he actually lost in 2020, I see.

Anyone who even mildly suggests that Biden got 81 million legitimate votes in that year destroys their own credibility.

Just like every day sees yet another several Ukraine propaganda stories (the Ukes are about to win! Really!) I’ve come to accept that we’re going to be inundated by these BS “polls” pushing DeSantis over Trump.

The RINO Establishment and the Democrats are desperate to avoid another 4 years of Trump and see DeSantis as their only shot. The Democrats don’t have a candidate and Biden is toast.

Yes old basement Joe pulled in more votes than their messiah and St. Hillary.

You didn’t realize slow drying cement Joe was the sleeper charismatic man of
the 21st Century did you? /s

Nah, you nailed it. 81 was out of his league and everyone knows it.

That figure alone screams fraud louder the wrong ever could.

No evidence?

I’d say there were 81 million pieces of evidence.

Let’s see if he keeps pace when the J6 nonsense fades out like a fart in the air. 24/7 pressure on Trump and Trump is still leading him?

And another prong in the destroy Trump narrative continues unabated.

Trump is the nominee if he runs

Nothing against Desanris, but these nefarious actors are simply trying to set up narrative to justify another electoral theft.

We have an illegitimate administration and if you think that folks are going to just let that go you are wrong.

If Trump wins, he’s the nominee.

I like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. If I could only have one, I’d choose peanut butter. That does not make me anti-jelly. The anti-Trump label is juvenile.

“Shock” in a title ranks right up there with “Bombshell” and “Boom” in the Clickbait Hall of Shame.
