2024 poll: DeSantis edges Trump in New Hampshire, which holds the first presidential primary
Fox News ^ | June 22, 2022 | Paul Steinhauser

DURHAM, N.H. – A public opinion survey in New Hampshire, the state that for a century has held the first primary in presidential race, indicates that Florida Gov. Gov. Ron DeSantis has a razor-thin margin over former President Donald Trump in a hypothetical 2024 GOP primary match-up.

According to polling numbers released on Wednesday by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center, 39% of likely Republican primary voters in the Granite State would support the first-term Florida governor, with 37% backing the former president. Respondents were provided a list of potential contenders for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, and DeSantis margin was well within the survey’s sampling error.

How absurdly obdurate you are. He is politically tone deaf by even considering running in '24. That is the height of political tone deafness.

So literally the only thing you have against DeSantis as a presidential candidate is the fact that he may run against Trump? No disagreements with him on policy, how he otherwise conducts himself, etc.?

Electing Trump goes beyond the politics of the day. This election will impact the republic basically forever. It’s not Trump vs whoever it is the People vs the Deep State. The only way that the US might survive the corruption is to re-elect Trump. You don’t see that because frankly you are small minded, myopic and afraid.

“anyone who thinks the nomination is not Trump’s if he runs has been living in a cave.”
From my cave let me say that your comment is more wishful thinking than anything else. As the NH poll suggests, neither Trump or DeSantis will run away with the nomination if they both run. However, unless Trump alters his demeanor in a serious way, DeSantis could beat him. A number of conservatives like me are afraid Trump will go off half cocked and blow it, and we badly need to win in Nov.. I will vote for Trump again if he gets the nomination but, after saying recently that it was ok with him if Stacy Abrahms became governor of GA, he will never be my first choice.

Censoring legitimate news is still censorship even if Republicans do it. Yes, cancel anything you don’t agree with.

Your deification of a guy who puts on his pants one leg at a time just like the rest of us is kind of creepy.

In case you missed it, Trump already had a four-year term as president. But according to what you wrote above, the impact of his first term was so short-lived that we are now about to be swallowed by eternal corruption if we don't elect him for a second term.

But if we do elect him to a second term, that impact will last "forever". Unlike the less than 2 year duration of the impact of his first term. If his impact didn't last for long after the first 4 years, what possible reason is there to believe it would last any longer after the second?

He's not a savior. He wasn't during his first term, and he wouldn't be during his second. Sorry to burst your bubble.

“One of Trumps problems is that he gives his haters so much ammunition , with reckless gaffes and careless behavior like his poorly planned Covid press conferences where he shot from the hip and let Fauci contradict him. Desantis is 100 times more disciplined.”

Correct, but the Trump adoration society will call you a Never Trumper for daring to point out a Trump flaw.

“What is more avoidable is when voters hate a guy because of his personality, because the personality doesn’t advance anything worthwhile.”

It can weaken his chances by alienating the undecided and give ammunition to his enemies.

Exactly. I don’t want to turn on the tv and see my president fighting with someone every single day. Or firing someone every week. Etc. Give me Desantis

“DeSantis has already stated if Trump’s running he’s not running,”

This hasn’t happened. You are either lying or misinformed.

“So exactly how has he been “politically tone deaf.”
How absurdly obdurate you are. He is politically tone deaf by even considering running in ‘24. That is the height of political tone deafness.”

Is that the best you got? Where did you find that he is considering running? Your intellectual judo fails.

If name calling is a virtue, you are is good shape. Is there a rational reason you think DeSantis, if he runs and wins, would not challenge corruption?

My God you are an idiot, do you realize the impact of a stolen election and Trump not getting back in or do you think 2020 was legitimate?

Sorry, I’m not a Bushy. You know there are conservatives who aren’t Trump worshipers. I’m just a Jeffersonian conservative who wants to move the conservative movement forward, and win in 2024. Sorry again, but Trump doesn’t put the conservative movement first.......satisfying his ego always comes first with him.

The 2020 election was stolen. You should be livid up to the point of taking up arms. But like me you are willing for once last chance of redemption by re-electing Trump. If you don't feel that way you either are stupid or a coward.

Electing Trump in 2024 doesn't undo 2020, nor will it convince anyone new that the 2020 election was stolen.

It's just the next election.

If Trump were a Democrat and the FBI and the DOJ had done to him what they did to Trump plus the stolen election, I would still vote for him. This has nothing to do with today’s politics and issues. This is about justice which seems to very little of it today.
