Gov. Ron DeSantis once again swept a straw poll for 2024 presidential candidates at a Colorado conservative conference Saturday, beating out former former President Donald Trump and other possible contenders.
The attendees of the Western Conservative Summit, organized by the Centennial Institute, a think tank associated with Colorado Christian University, approved of a potential DeSantis candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination at 71%, with Trump coming in at 67%.
The straw poll was conducted based on an "approval" system, which allowed attendees to vote for more than one candidate that they could support.
DeSantis won the 2024 straw poll last year at the Western Conservative Summit, narrowly edging out Trump. DeSantis received 74% approval to Trump's 71% in 2021.

But is it a good idea to again elect someone with no previous experience in government to lead the executive branch of the US government? Ya mean as opposed to career insider politicians who've never held a real job? Btw, outside the Trump era, what did all that government experience get us? I'd say it got us death, debt, open borders, sky high crime, an economy on the brink and chaos in every direction.
No?

Since Trump was robbed and swindled by massive election fraud, no one but Trump deserves to be elected. And this is exactly what is going to happen.Worth shouting...

DeSantis is a political star these days. In my travels any time I mention I am from Florida and the talk is politics the subject goes to DeSantis. He’s very popular with the GOP base across the country right now. His career resume doesn’t scream MAGA so I do have my reservations but he’s definitely popular right now.

Worse than that. They claim long standing conservatism but radically oppose all things conservative.

I would prefer 4 years of Trump and then 8 years of DeSantis. Unfortunately, four more years of Trump might not get us a DeSantis. Look what we got out of the first four years…
To: Magnatron
In my opinion, the three most serious crises facing the country right now is the 2nd Amendment, the Woke nonsense, and the leftist-caused crime wave.
Any candidate must vow to protect the 2nd Amendment, shove the Woke bull aside, and use every tool to restore order.
Whoever that is, I will be on board.

You mean like, Jeb is the only one who can defeat Hillary, get it? Trump can’t beat Hillary, get it? Trump cannot come back from the Billy Bush tape, get it? He can’t win Pennsylvania, get it? There’s too much fraud, McAullife can’t lose the VA race, get it?

Yep, Rudy was going for the jugular. Nothing says I AM SERIOUS like this press conference setting.
Come up with all the excuses you can find. THIS embodies Trump's Human Resources acumen. He was a magnificent leader, galvanizer, and saved us from Hillary. But wow, can he pick losers.

Rudy ran hours and hours of hearings about voter fraud in five states. And all you can think of is Rudy early on, at a press conference.
Are you serious?
Trump did pick some losers. But Rudy wasn't one of them.
To: DoodleBob
Stuff your anti Trump hate up your a$$. True patriots are not moving on form MAGA pal so give it up loser.

This thread is bringing out the worst in Free Republic. Many of you move on from Trump types should re-evaluate or just maybe FOAD.
PLEASE PULL THIS THREAD. IT IS A DISGRACE.

Hmmm...I present several PRO-TRUMP examples of where your syntax leads to disaster. And your reading comprehension registers anti-Trump. Good to know. Have a great evening, FRiend.
