DeWine was one of the worst Branch Covidian Nazis in 2020. It just goes to show you why so many of these governors were hell-bent on shutting down people's lives in the first place ... it's because most Americans are cowardly fools who loved the idea of hiding under their beds under government orders.
Meaningless numbers. Tina Kotek, the least popular governor, cannot be defeated in Oregon.
That is not totally the truth…. Some of US remember WACO, and the power of government gods…. Of science.
But I didn't post this to praise DeWine. I posted to show that DeSantis is not as popular as some would argue. And DeSantis is not that different from other republican governors. Check the list.
Could only be defeated on the Left, like Newsom who is neck and neck with DeSantis. Kemp’s strong support gives me hope he will run against Ossoff in 2026 when he’s termed out. It’s disgusting that a state run by Republicans isn’t represented by even one in DC and votes blue in 2020. I think the problem is Trump. I don’t know why he specifically struggles here.
DeWhiner is a Political Hack. No Doubt. He has supported 2nd Amendment when asked and seems to be more of a centrist. In other words, in the squishy middle. Drifts back and forth, and as such has RINO leanings and in no way a Full Republican.
DeWhiner is a WEAK LITTLE MAN, pure and simple. He took all his medical advice from a whiney, mousey WEAK health director. No One challenged this Whiney B!tch who gave BAD advice and fudged numbers on a constant basis.
DeSantis and DeWine don’t belong on the same page.
Andy Baaaaa-shear is number 5? Just 👻 2 show
Only 5 Govenors are below 50 and one of them was never actually elected
Polls? Who care about polls? DeSantis crushed that old George Hamilton lookalike faggot in the actual election
These polls are interesting but the numbers are meaningless. How many of these governors are at risk of recall (thus, very bad) or losing re-election (thus, bad)? Probably none.
Governor DeSantis is a conservative cultural warrior.
That doesn't set too well with RINOs - and many soccer moms, Bud Light drinkers, Disney goers, and several religious denominations.
That is why the nation needs Governor DeSantis; and will probably vote him down.
He supported the 2nd just to get re-elected. He is a POS, plain and simple. He IS implementing RED Flag in Ohio by stealth. The infrastructure is being put in place already. We gun owners are the future untouchables. There are stories of property tax evaluations going up 43% for residents and 110% for farmers. Implementing Red Flag is expensive don’t you know. He recently gave a death row inmate a reprieve who was to be executed in November. The new date is 2027! He said they couldn’t find the drugs used in execution. Anyone believe a word of that. He was always a liberal POS. I didn’t vote for his ass.
So Hobbs in AZ is number 48.
I bet the GOP-e does nothing to get her out other than pick someone worse.
Wendy and Kari were really changing the local GOP here until the GOP-e and Crazy Liz came in and ended it.
Cindy McCain is still running the show here.
Pretty lackluster numbers for DeSantis, considering he keeps touting himself as a miracle worker in Florida.
what about RINOs who are supporting desantis, he’s got lots of them and taking money from them?
how is it conservative to allow illegals into your state, then shuttle them around to other states?
First he allows them access then uses tax payer money and dumps them on other states? How is that conservative?
illegals is a huge party of our country’s problems and desantis treats it as a game or way to try to get votes when really he is putting his states people at risk by not locking down his borders since FED isn’t doing their responsibility to secure our borders. As Gov desantis should be stepping up where FED is in the wrong, he has that authority and he is NOT using it. Then he wastes tax payer money and he causes more problems for other states by shuttling illegals there instead of containing them in FL or deporting them. Governors have the authority to do what is needed when FED is not.
desantis in conservative in so much as it helps him in some way. He voted in ways against the USA prior to governorship.
It’s all out there. read up. desantis is just a tool, last weeks special bargain.
That is an interesting comment.
Can you name a governor that does not have any illegals in his-her state?
