To stop decline, pull DeSantis off trail, political analyst says
WFLA TV ^ | July 4, 2023 | Mahsa Saeidi

It’s the final Fourth of July before the primary season, and to mark the occasion, Gov. Ron DeSantis hit the campaign trail for two parades in New Hampshire.

One political expert told WFLA investigator Mahsa Saeidi, the governor is marching for his political life.

DeSantis has been on the campaign trail since May and so far, his poll numbers have not been going in the right direction. We’re still more than six months away from the primary season.

... Tara Newsom is a political analyst. She said DeSantis is not connecting with voters.

“It looks like voters are starting to really get to know him and the more they get to know him, his narrative is a lot different than the man,” Newsom said.

“Gov. DeSantis cannot get within striking reach of Donald Trump and every time he makes a campaign stop, voters seem to step back.”

He is now sending his wife out to do the Campaigning.
His campaigning is worse than Jeb’s.

Many in the MSM and Trump supporters seem to have an unhealthy obsession with DeSantis’ candidacy. The childish name calling evidences their fear.

It’s funny. A lot of the time the wives would prefer that they didn’t run: Laura Bush, Big Mike, Melania, Betty Ford, Kitty Dukakis

Then there are the wives that are more eager than the husbands: Hillary, Casey

Or keep “reintroducing” him to the public when the previous unveilings fall flat. The Hillary 2016 strategy.

Hillary polled best before the campaign started.

Same with Ron.

They might as well. Everyone, including RdS, knows his ONLY chance is the Uniparty/Soros kangaroo courts taking out the runaway nominee. RdS doesn’t have to be good campaigner or even show up for this only possible successful gambit to work.

If Trump dies in his sleep tonight what then? Who does everyone suggest we get behind if Trump is not available? Who is our second choice?

If it has to be a GOPe stooge, better to go with someone like Youngkin, who doesn’t lose support with every campaign appearance.

If they had reintroduced Hillary just one more time ... Maybe softened her image a little :)

I’m sorry, wasn’t paying attention; reintroduce who again?

Biden became President hiding in his basement.

I guess the strategy works.

The thing is that the Democrat Commies WANT DeSantis to be the nomineeinsytead of Trump.

Thats enough to send his polls SOuth , in the wrong direction.

DESantis needs to keep on being Givernor of FLorida. The toime isnot right for a presidential run.

Desantis. The article suggests the only way to stop his nosedive is to pull him off the trail, then reintroduce him and pretend the previous six months never happened. AKA, the Hillary Strategy.

So, DeSantis is such a bad candidate, his numbers will improve if he isn't campaigning? 😂

DeSantis isn't even on a Jeb Bush level.

Exactly. I hope and pray there’s no chance of Trump dying in his sleep, but there’s every chance that the Deep State will keep applying the pressure. More indictments to come. More charges to be levied. Hell, they may even impeach him again. Anything is possible in a banana republic.
