Iowa Gov. Reynolds: Trump Can’t Win in 2024, Ron DeSantis Can
Breitbart ^ | 6 Nov 2023 | PAM KEY

Posted on 11/06/2023 8:03:41 PM PST by SoConPubbie

Governor Kim Reynolds (R-IA) said Monday on NBC’s “Nightly News” that she endorsed Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) for president because she believed he can win in the general election while former President Donald Trump cannot.

Reporter Dasha Burns said, “Tonight Governor Kim Reynolds explaining why she’s breaking with the Iowa tradition of staying neutral and endorsing Ron DeSantis.”

Reynolds said, “I just felt like I couldn’t sit on the sidelines any longer. We have too much at stake.”

DeSantis said, “This one’s obviously very meaningful, because Kim has proven to be a great leader that Iowans love.”

Reynolds said, “I don’t base my decision on polls. I take a look at who I believe is the right person for the right job. I believe that Ron is the right person for the right job. and I believe he’s going to win.”

Burns asked, “Do you believe Trump can’t win?”

Reynolds said, “I believe he can’t win. and I believe that Ron can.”

Her logic train derailed and crashed on the siding.

Why on Earth do they think MAGA will gravitate to them if Trump is . . . assassinated. Or anything that prevents him from running.

Why do they think they inherit MAGA supporters.

DO THEY NOT UNDERSTAND? They have betrayed those folks. They will vote Democrat just to punish the GOPe, and do so at all levels of government to get every single layer of GOPe erased.

Mrs. Reynolds, this is the average intelligence of our students, and this is where little Kimmy's intellectual ability is at.

“Iowa Gov. Reynolds: Trump Can’t Win in 2024, Ron DeSantis Can”

A year ago people could at least make that argument. Now DeSantis is just Chris Christie in tights.

If Gov. Reynolds cannot figure out something that obvious, she needs to check into a happy house.

This “Trump can’t win the general election, but DeSantis can”, mantra is getting more absurd by the day. Do the people saying it really believe that Trump’s inroads into the Black and Hispanic voter bases will transfer over to DeSantis? Newer Trump supporters are supporting Trump, not the Republican party.

Thanks for that info. I was not aware of DeSantis’s position on the whole Gaetz/McCarthy episode, but I’m not surprised. It’s just another case where Trump was on the right side of the issue and DeSantis wasn’t.

LOL!

How can he win the presidential election when Trump has the primaries already won?

A fool and his career, are soon parted.
