A new YouGov survey has found that 42% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents would prefer Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis over former President Trump as the party's 2024 presidential nominee.
That said, those who consider themselves "strong Republicans" were more likely to support a third Trump run (45%) over the Florida governor, while 43% said they would prefer DeSantis.
The difference was far more pronounced among the 'Republican-leaning' respondents, of which 45% preferred DeSantis vs. 21% for Trump. 38% of those who described themselves as "not very strong Republicans" prefer DeSantis, vs. 31% who picked Trump.
The poll comes after Trump lashed out at DeSantis following the governor's resounding midterm victory last week - cementing his position as a top GOP candidate to run against Trump in the 2024 GOP primaries.
Trump nicknamed DeSantis "Ron DeSanctimonious" during a rally last week, before going further and releasing a statement in which he took credit for DeSantis' political success.-

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Mark Levin Offers a No Nonsense Answer as to “What Happened” to the Wave … Strictly By the Numbers WITH Connivance by the RepubliCRAT, Establishment RINOs
Conservatives & Republicans WON we/they just didn’t get “the Cherries on Top” … AND They Weren’t Really Likely to Have Done So.
- The Raw Numbers were Against It. Far too many “Seats” were Against Democrat Incumbents.
- AFTER the Supreme Court Decision in JUNE that the STATES NOT the FEDERAL GOV are the Proper Authority to Decide the Abortion Issue (Roe vs Wade) INFURIATING the Left …
A. K. McCarthy (R-House) In JUNE States the intention to Enact a FEDERAL “BAN”
B. L. Graham (R-Senate) In SEPTEMBER Introduces a BILL to Enact a FEDERAL “BAN”
WHY!? WHY Kick a Hornet’s Nest? To WHAT End!? They SIMPLY AREN’T THAT STUPID - McConnel (R/GOP-Senate) REFUSES to Fund, TAKES AWAY Funding, ALLOCATES Funding CONTRARY to IMPORTANT Senate Races.
The GOP/Establishment RepubliCRATS … DELIBERATELY “THREW THE RACE”!!! WHY!?!?
Do They HATE “Conservatives THAT Much? It Appears They DO!

Who exactly came up with those statistics though I wonder, and why should I trust them anymore than the next "expert"? That aside, I too am inclined to believe the GOP was headed towards mostly victories this past election... until a certain someone put his two cents in and ultimately ruined it for some candidates, and then he turned around and bashed for losing some of the very candidates he had endorsed and even cheered on the loss of a Republican candidate from Colorado.
