DeSantis brushes off 2024 polling, suggests Trump only leading because 'people have not made a decision'
Fox News ^ | 10/07/23

GREENEVILLE, S.C. – Presidential candidate Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., does not think that 2024 polling reflects the current state of the heated GOP race, shaking off recent surveys that show him in 3rd place.

A recent Suffolk University survey for USA Today and the Boston Globe suggested that while former President Donald Trump remains the front-runner in the race, former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley now leads DeSantis by 9 percentage points, 19% to 10%.

When asked about recent polling, DeSantis told Fox News Digital that he believes voters are still "on the fence."

"I don't think any of it matters," DeSantis told reporters at a recent campaign event. "You've got to put yourself in a position to have the type of infrastructure needed to do well when the voting starts. But what's going to happen is none of the polls are going to matter when people start voting. That's what's going to determine everything."

I didn’t know desantis was a comedian.
OTOH, the way he’s talking... is the fix in? Shouldn’t he be hiding in his basement?

DeSantis is arguably the greatest Governor in the nation at present. Sadly, he’s also running one of the worst Presidential campaigns in the modern era for a first tier candidate. He should gracefully bow out and double-down on his work in Florida over the next 3+ years. The longer he stays in the race, the more damage he does to his viability for running for office again in 2028.

After The Steal I made my decision to vote for Trump in 2024 or who he selects. Nothing has changed my mind since then.

I think his goose is cooked for 2028, too. We will remember.

He does have a point. Polls show most people are considering more than one candidate, with “not considering Trump” outpolling “only Trump.”

I’ll give you that. He’s come up with some real doozies as of late. That “I will be president” line was priceless.

All he had to do was wait until the 2028 election, but no, he was bought off by the Anti=Trump establishment RETARDS (REPUBS) and he is now lying in the bed of bugs he made.

Yep. It’s not enough that he’s damaged his career. He seems intent on putting a stake in it.
