From bad to much worse for Ron DeSantis

Three new polls this week cement the picture of an imploded candidacy

The 2024 Republican presidential primary campaign is increasingly looking like a coronation — in no small part thanks to the implosion of Donald Trump’s would-be usurper, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

New polling this week lays bare just how poorly things have gone for the governor. While DeSantis arguably remains the biggest of the minor hurdles Trump needs to clear, his electoral case has effectively collapsed alongside his poll numbers.

Two national polls from Fox News and Quinnipiac University show Trump expanding his lead over second-place DeSantis to 47 and 50 points, respectively.

Those are Trump’s largest margins to date in high-quality national polling of the race. And thus his lead in the FiveThirtyEight polling average has expanded to a whopping 41 points. Seven months ago, before DeSantis announced his campaign, he had crawled to within just two points of Trump.

1. Well, now that he's trying to kill his constituents again...

I hope the people of my former home state get all the protection against Covid that's available to them. He'll be a nobody after his terms ends. Why listen to him now?

2. Little white boots says those polls are fake, and they're out to get him.

3. The more people see of DeathSentence, the less they like him.

He's a creepy little fascist who's devoid of charisma, people skills, & anything else that might get him elected. He has nothing to offer but stupid culture wars. As stated above, he'll be a nobody after his term ends.
