Ron DeSantis is the clear winner over Donald Trump among Florida Republicans when asked who they would like as the GOP presidential nomination 2024, according to a poll.
The survey, conducted by Blueprint Polling, found 50.9 percent of those asked back or lean towards the Florida governor, with the former president behind on 38.6 percent.

They’re both good candidates. Let’s not allow Newsweek to divide us.
I’d have to really know more about Ron’s ideas on international affairs before giving him my vote. I liked what I read about him in terms of dealing with local issues in Florida but if he’s another Neocon he won’t get my vote.

A stolen "election" in Florida in 2022 would remove DeSantis from the national chessboard.
We've done well to move the elections directors from Broward and Palm Beach down the road - but there's a whole lot of rigging going on elsewhere in Florida.
“Difference is, Cruz is a phony.”
All you have said about Cruz is true. Agreed. My point is, that Desantis doesn’t stand a chance against President Trump in an actual primary election cycle.
President Trump’s base will not abandon the man for Desantis. In fact, most will look at a Primary Challenge as an affront. It would destroy any goodwill he has with President Trump’s base. And, as a reminder President Trump’s base in NOT just Hardcore Conservatives. The man has a considerable following among non-traditional Republican voters as well.
DeSantis is not going to run if Trump runs. He’s smart and can do math. Trump 2024 to 2028. DeSantis 2028 to 2032. 4 + 8 is 12 and 12 is better than either 4 or 8.
I think you all had better keep your eye on this mid term first. That is if we have a mid term election that is legal.
Plenty of time to get into POTUS politics after.

Wow they’re really trying to create a fight where there is no fight.
DeSantis unequivocally said he won’t run if Trump runs.
Newsweek trying to start a fight.
Good!
Came very close to losing it in 2018.
That was for an open race with no incumbent. It's quite different when a popular incumbent is running for reelection.
As Florida goes, so does the country.
I can’t do a ted cruz redux campaign. Straight Trump nothing in the way!
“ The Deep State fear of President Trump is boundless”
I guess. But he hired all deep-staters.
“ DeSantis unequivocally said he won’t run if Trump runs.”
Do you have a link for that? I’ve never seen the statement. Can you provide it?
As I wrote before: A stolen "election" in Florida in 2022 would remove DeSantis from the national chessboard.
The Floridians will have to ride herd on their vote-rigging counties.

If you'll review my post #23, you'll see that 8 million turned out in 2018.
3 million is a WHOLE LOT of wiggle room for creating a Narrative and setting up the vote factories.
Look for the Florida Dems to create a Narrative to "Get Out The Cheat". It's what they do, working closely with their Media.
The current Florida Narratives on DeSantis are weak sauce.
Those are the only choices that a President DeSantis will get, too.
Deep staters were all that was available at the time and now fully exposed.
This.
No more neocons.
