President Donald Trump boasts the highest favorability in a hypothetical 2024 Republican presidential primary, a Morning Consult survey released this week found.
The survey confirmed what has been seen in several other surveys as of late, with Trump taking the clear lead in the hypothetical 2024 presidential field. In this survey, Trump leads his closest potential challenger, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), by 18 percent, garnering support from nearly half of potential GOP voters β 49 percent. That reflects a two-point uptick from the 47 percent support he saw roughly one month ago in the same survey:
The poll also explored the favorability of each potential candidate and found Trump leading the pack in terms of favorability, as 80 percent have a favorable view of the former president, while 18 percent do not.
DeSantis comes in second place in terms of favorability, as 73 percent have a favorable view of the governor. While just nine percent have an unfavorable view, nine percent also said they have never heard of him β a factor Trump does not have an issue with.
Sixty-one percent have a favorable view of both former Vice President Mike Pence and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), but 31 percent have a negative view of Pence, compared to 19 percent for Cruz.
[cut]
Only one potential candidate listed had a majority viewing her unfavorably β former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), with 53 percent viewing her unfavorably compared to just 18 percent who have a favorable view.

outstanding...
attacking each other isn’t going to help us win the battle against the demonrats...
.
He will and his team has been working on it for some time.
And no, he was reminding you that money going to “Ready for Ron” does not go to him or his reelection and to doncte DIRECTLY to him.
And THIS is why the DEMs and RINOs (did I just repeat myself?) are so hellbent on finding ANY way to stop him from running again.
DeSantis isn’t Cruz, Kasich, or Jeb. All DeSantis needs to do is keep doing an excellent job in Florida, ignore Trump’s baiting and be an example.
i didnβt get the experimental shots mister pin cushion...And yet he survived.
he drew first blood...
you’re sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong...
Jeb Bush did great job in FLorida as governor.
That’s a matter of opinion.
The real paramount point is I RECOVERED in Record short time of 42 hours from a vicious attack of covid. I had fever, severe body pain, loss of balance, extreme weakness and coughing non-stop when I got sick on Friday evening. I had home test kit handy, and it said I test positive for covid.
I was in total panic knowing I am 82 years old. I had no ivermectin, or other medicines for covid at home.
It was too late in the evening to call my doctor. On Saturday morning I could barely make it to the bathroom. All I did was rest in bed and all I could eat on Saturday was chicken soup from a can.
Miraculously I wake up on Sunday morning with all symptoms gone except some cough lingered.
Low information posters have no clue what a vaccine does.
It DOES NOT build a virus proof filter to stop airborne virus.
Low information posters have no clue that nasty virus like covid begins replicating at warp speed in the body.
Low information posters have no clue that it takes much longer for our immune system to recognize the virus and mount a defense by producing additional anti-bodies.
That is the reason why millions have died from covid if they have comorbidities or old age.
I am thankful the vaccine had done its ONLY JOB, which is to stock up my body with extra stock of anti-bodies. That is the only logical explanation why the virus was subdued in less than 2 days, 42 hours to be exact. There is no way in hell a 82 year body like mine can produce enough anti-bodies that fast to kill the virus.
But low information posters will remain in paranoid mode because they just don’t have the IQ to learn much.
So??
I thought DeSantis wasn’t running?
low information posters still believe the experimental shots are safe and effective...
i never got the experimental shots and i never got the kung flu...
his team was working on his reelection campaign for last year (2022)
desantis never announced he’s running for president in 2024...
“Not sure if theyβd do that ticket...since theyβre both from FL...usually they go for a pair from different states...”
This practice is based on the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution which, in relevant part, states:
“The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves[.]”
Thus, a Presidential candidate and a VP candidate cannot both be from a state that casts its Electoral votes for both of them, which, in effect, makes that one state unable to cast its Electoral votes for one of them if they are both inhabitants of that state on the day it casts its Electoral votes. Hence, if both Trump and Desantis were FL residents on the date FL cast its Electoral votes, FL would be disabled from voting for both. However, if Desantis moved out of FL before that date, the disqualification would be voided and FL could cast its votes for both of them.
This is my interpretation only and I invite any reader to disagree with me if he or she can cite a contrary provision of the Constitution, a Federal statute, or applicable case law.
And this is after YEARS of the media, the democrats and MOST members of his own party denigrating him, insulting him, accusing him and lying about him.
Neither did Biden when hiding in his basement during campaign.
desantis issued a statement 3 weeks ago instructing people not to donate any money to any organization that claims he’s running for president in 2024...
DS is high IQ. He is playing the game like a seasoned pro.
I just do not want him getting ruined prematurely in 2024 run. Whether Trump wins or loses in 2024, does not matter for DS’s chances in 2028. DS just needs to continue doing the fine job he is doing in FL in the meanwhile.
