If there are multiple primary candidates, Trump will probably walk away with the nomination because the vote will be split several ways. If it Trump and DeSantis head-to-head, and more Americans become familiar DeSantis, Trump could be in trouble.

I’m sure the Left is doing everything they can to help DeSantis if DeSantis goes up against Trump. The Left will do ANYTHING to defeat Trump. But I don’t think it will work as it hasn’t so far for the last six years.

Once they’re done with DeSantis, the vile Left will trash him big time.

I just love how people think DeSantis is stupid enough to run against Trump but smart enough to be president? DeSantis has a wonderful young family, do you think he wants them near the swamp before it’s cleaned out?

The swamp creatures will just go underground again.

So much speculation given that Ron has already said he won’t run if Trump does. Are they hoping Ron will forever become a liar like Bush 41?

I think a Trump/DeSantis ticket is wise for both men. Give Trump his last term and it sets the stage nicely for Ron to run the next two terms.

This, I think, is what we need, and this will scare the progressives more than anything.

Will DeSantis get the one-on-one shot 2016 candidates never did?

Cruz had a one-on-one in Indiana, a state that would have favored him in a different matchup. He failed. Trump got near majorities after the first couple of primaries, and it wrong to assume that lost Carly Fiorina and Ben Carson would appeal to the same voters.

DeSantis has young children. Would President DeSantis hold back on his agenda hoping the filthy leftists wouldn’t go after him as nasty as they did Trump, Kavanaugh, Thomas, etc., etc., etc. I remember when Kavanaugh had to have his kids taken out of the Hearing room.

What a waste of effort. Disantis is not running

They would destroy him as soon as he entered the race

After the midterms everything will be different win or lose

Anyway he’s not running. Anyone claiming to want disantis right now is just a trump hater.

Last I knew DeSantis was not planning to run if Trump ran. Has this changed?

Looked at the replies to your post. Only one gratuitously offensive one, no. 10. That’s pretty good, because honest and good faith disagreement on this issue causes a lot of people on this forum to start foaming at the mouth

Honest question and I like DeSantis very much. I liked him in congress when he was just one of many but spoke his mind. I admire the job and things he is doing in Florida.

However, I am a bit concerned that the left-wing media appears to be cheerleading for this guy over Trump.

They don’t do anything like this without coordination and a plan (even a bad plan). What is their plan and why would they be pushing DeSantis even as they say he is Trump without the baggage?

If he were Trump without the baggage wouldn’t they be more afraid of him?

“...former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie at 1%.”

Look out, Christie is closing in/sarc.

I’m personally okay with a Trump / DeSantis primary race. Maybe throw Rand Paul in the mix too. Competition is, in general, a good thing. Furthermore, multiple candidates might keep the media smear machine from focusing too much on one candidate.

What’s not a good thing is when candidates savage each other so much in the primaries that they go into the general election damaged. Let’s hope we can avoid that.
