Survey: Donald Trump Trounces Ron DeSantis on Major Issues

More Republicans express confidence in former President Donald Trump to handle several major issues in the country — from energy to China relations — than Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, the latest Morning Consult data found.

The latest Morning Consult survey found Trump leading DeSantis by 34 points in the Republican primary race. A majority, 56 percent, support him, compared to 22 percent who support DeSantis. No other individual listed garners over five percent support.

Morning Consult found Trump with another advantage as well: Republicans tend to trust him more on a wide range of issues. For example, 71 percent of Republicans said they trust Trump to handle the economy, compared to 19 percent who said the same of DeSantis. Nearly three-quarters, 72 percent, trust Trump to handle relations with China, while 18 percent said the same of DeSantis.

Similarly, 71 percent trust Trump on national security and 69 percent trust him on foreign policy, compared to 19 percent who said the same for DeSantis on national security and 20 percent who trust him on foreign policy.

“.@MittRomney has announced he is running for the Senate from the wonderful State of Utah. He will make a great Senator and worthy successor to @OrrinHatch, and has my full support and endorsement!” -Trump

Just trying remember some of Trump’s great personnel decisions….Mattis, Omarosa, Scaramucci, Haley, Rex, John Kelly, McMaster, Bolton…plus some great endorsements. Looks pretty establishment to me.

A major part of the job is picking the right people to be in the right spots….Trump has proven that he is completely in capable of that.

You condemn Ron for staying silent on 2020 but can Trump stay quiet and you’re fine with it?

You lack perspective on the relative comparative importance of the two issues:

1. Voter Fraud, if not addressed, means our country is done for.

2. This budget deal, means we go further in debt, and while it is important, it pales in comparison with respect to importance.

Furthermore, President Trump is a negotiator. He ALWAYS tries to get the best deal, but knows there has to be compromise.

He counseled the Republicans (McCarthy) at the beginning of the process, to hold out for their principals and even be willing to let the Government go into default. So much for your "Tell us why Trump won’t give the deal his support of condemn it?" statement.

But at the end of the day, he, intelligently (not like you), knows that Biden is the President, and the Democrats are in control of the Senate and Republicans have a very slim majority in the House and many of the GOP Caucus are little more than Democrat-Lite.

So, he is willing to use whatever leverage he can, but, he will still strive to get the best deal possible.

Unlike you who is expecting purity and otherwise you want to apparently burn everything down and the consequences be damned!

And the two are also different in another very important way. Voter fraud is a criminal act. A bad budget deal is not.

Trump named the RINO McCarthy and an entire long list of bad choices. People tell me has learned but I see no evidence he has learned anything since Reince Priebus as his first chief of staff.

If the budget deal is bad, he needs to speak out. Even Ron spoke out on how bad that deal was. We need all the voices we have to speak up, especially the leader of MAGA.

Vote fraud is bad too, but the Republicans were once again totally unprepared. They had no ground game ready in most places. Everyone I spoke to said they were just overwhelmed in number at polling places.

As POTUS DeoSanctus would not do anything to fight McCarthy. Deo is establishment. We all know it.

[central_va]

Bad news for neocon dim wits and operatives here. The base of the party overwhelming trusts Trump on foreign policy and national security issues.

Why? Because they should.

[central_va]

Trump is the establishment.

The Establishment HATES Trump. They love their trojan horse DeoSanctus Et tu Brute.

[BlackbirdSST]

Well, first provide proof that Trump supported the deal. You can’t, so another DeSanctimonious supporter lies about President Trump. How so unexpected of you.

I've yet to see a single poster that supports Ron the Runt that doesn't flat out lie about Trump. Not.A.Single.One.

There is also a sense that a monstrous injustice was committed against the Trump faction, both with Russia Russia Russia and in 2020. Trump himself has said many times that the people are the target, and he’s hated because he’s in the way. DeSantis is, like many politicians, even good ones, an egotistical fool. But he is not the Trump faction. That is 74 million strong and growing.

“I’ve yet to see a single poster that supports Ron the Runt that doesn’t flat out lie about Trump. Not.A.Single.One.”

After hearing a segment on Dan Bongino about AI last week, I’m starting to think many of these posters aren’t people. They’re AI, programmed to be thrown into the mix to create chaos and instigated schisms among conservatives.
