Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds touted Ron DeSantis’ accomplishments as governor of Florida as she endorsed him Monday — and said she believes he will be able to win the 2024 general election, while Donald Trump cannot.
“I believe he can’t win,” Reynolds said of Trump, “and I believe that Ron can.”
“And that’s a big reason I got behind him,” Reynolds told NBC News in a joint interview with DeSantis.

And that desantis and reynolds expect Trump to be kept off the ballot somehow...
GOPe would rather lose with someone else than win with Trump. They are going to follow the path of the designated loser as they did with Dole, McCain, and Romney.
Look how illogical this endorsement is. She believes that Trump can’t win, nevermind that he won in 2016 already and was clearly cheated out of his re-election, but DeSantis, who barely beat a bisexual drug addict Mayor even with Trump’s endorsement, can win.
Iowa elects an old grandma political hack with no identifiable trade or skill as a governor. Good job morons.
The GOPe called in their IOU and she did what she had to since she thinks she can take over for Grassley. Let her try to win without Trump supporters
So cut off your nose to spite your face, and back the real loser beyotch. She is a prime example of what is wrong with the GOP.
Both Reynolds and Desanctis will soon follow Pence into ignominious silence.
TRump made then both, just as he made Pence.

Right you are. It’s no longer Democrats vs. Republicans.
It’s the Democrats + GOPe vs. Trump
If they do that, I'll just write Trump's name in, instead of sitting home. I'll never vote for another Romney, Bush, etc.
True, but PDJT enabled the theft of OUR election with the CARES act that financed the circumvention of election integrity ostensibly due to COVID hysteria.
All these “electability” republicans are either liars or morons. If the lies, lawfare, illegal persecutions work on Trump they will be used on the next Republican. Does anyone think the left won’t drum up charges against DeSantis?
“Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds says Trump can’t win in 2024 as she endorses Ron DeSantis”
this woman is a complete idiot IF she really believes that; Iowa: you need a new governor, one that’s not a total moron ...
I remember when “the Maverick“ mcCain was the darling of the left. As soon as he became the nominee, he wasn’t. After he lost the election, he went right back to being the darling of the left.
I support Ron DeSantis. I do not believe that Trump will be kept off the ballot. I believe that if he is on the ballot he will lose to Gavin Newsom or Michelle Obama.
So the dude who is 40+ behind in the primary, can win the general? I guess in this bizarro world, all those who oppose this clown will simply fall in line. But that is the Republican strategy for years.
The only way he’s not on the ballot is if the RNC refuses to accept him as their nominee..
If the RNC does this, the Republican party is DONE as a national party, at least 30% of their base, if not more will walk away from them and most of those that do will NEVER return.
Simple reality is TRUMP is the ONLY Republican who can win.
If the RNC refuses to accept him as the nominee, and that is the ONLY way he’s not on the ballot, then the Republican party is DONE as a national party.
30% of their base, AT A MINIMUM, will walk away from them, and most will NEVER EVER return.
It must be nice supporting a guy who gets no blame whenever he loses. If Trump wins it’s because he was obviously the best candidate how could anyone not see that (and not that people simply chose pneumonia over cancer). If he loses, the fix was in.
Biden is a drooling, corrupt imbecile who wrecked the economy and set the world on fire, and Trump is barely outside the margin of error in these polls. The best argument for Trump is that he’s probably the only thing keeping Biden, the worst president in history, on the ticket.
