Ron DeSantis Wins Endorsement From “America’s Most Unpopular Governor”
November 5, 2023 | Sundance | 213 Comments
The timing here is just splendid. According to multiple MSM sources, Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds is scheduled to endorse Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for the 2024 GOP nomination. The endorsement is scheduled to be announced tomorrow in Iowa.
This endorsement comes on the heels of a recent Morning Consult poll [SEE HERE] showing Governor Kim Reynolds is “America’s most unpopular governor.”😂🤣😂 How appropriate is that?!
[…] “Gov. Kim Reynolds (R-Iowa) is America’s most unpopular governor, with a 47% disapproval rating, up from 39% in the first quarter of 2023. Her unpopularity increased partly because of a surge in negative sentiment among independent and Republican voters during a year in which she signed a strict anti-abortion law and took a lashing from former President Donald Trump over her apparent closeness with Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.).” (link)

You might remember when I said, and repeated, to “watch the RGA.” Well, surprise, surprise, guess who is the current RGA Chair? Yup, Kim Reynolds. {link} These people are entirely predictable.
[CTH, January 2023] […] “As I’m watching President Trump doing the familiar targeting of the GOPe roadmap, in this instance hitting the Club for Growth (CfG), my spidey senses are telling me their modified 2024 path will involve increased emphasis on the Republican Governors Association (RGA).
In the 2020 midterms, the RGA headed by Arizona Governor Doug Ducey was positioning: specifically positioning Ron DeSantis. If the modified establishment roadmap rolls out as it looks right now, I suspect the RGA will play a key role in it.” (keep reading)
You might not have remembered the way the RGA was positioning [reference the $20 million donation to DeSantis in April 2022, which was always intended as a laundry operation for the 2024 GOP primary], which always had this Reynolds endorsement lined up to be triggered, but at least we know Donald Trump saw the roadmap as outlined.
Back in February, 2023, President Donald Trump was noting the same strategic plays that we were. Fortunately, he was keeping an eye on how the Republican Governors Association (RGA) was intending to execute their anti-MAGA moves against the base working class voters. [Trump Truth]
Once you see the strings on the marionettes, it becomes impossible to return to that moment in the performance when you did not see them.
Lastly, while this endorsement was pre-baked into the 2024 roadmap and entirely predictable, it has been triggered early.
Kim Reynolds endorsing Ron DeSantis is a break from tradition. The Iowa governor rarely endorses a presidential candidate; hence, that was the motive for the plan. The roadmap added this little ‘shock and awe’ move as part of the design long before people were even willing to admit that DeSantis was running. However, the endorsement was not supposed to happen until after the 2023 holidays, when it would be closer to the Iowa caucuses and carry more benefit.
Why did the DeSantis handlers need to trigger this endorsement early? Because DeSantis is going backward in Iowa and Nikki Haley is now pushing ahead of him.
The more the Iowa voters get to see Ron DeSantis, the less they like him.
The GOPe roadmap is collapsing… the timing of this predictable move by the RGA component shows desperation.
The billionaire class of the professional Republican manipulators are failing, Bigly!
Be of good cheer, we are kicking their ass!

“Kim Reynolds told me that she was going to remain NEUTRAL because Iowa was, “Thank you President Trump,” FIRST IN THE NATION. She wanted to campaign with everyone. I told her that I should have “remained neutral” when she asked me to help her get elected, and that I didn’t want or need her to campaign with me. I am now 41+Points up in Iowa!” ~ Donald J Trump
Today is a very good day.
Ron DeSantis has been endorsed by “America’s most unpopular governor.” Sorry, I just can’t stop laughing.
…And Ron & Nikki are going to have another debate fight on television for ‘first-loser’ status. 😂
Pinch me.
Best Election Ever!
