Gov. Ron DeSantis offered a tough critique of Vice President Kamala Harris during a Friday night interview on Fox News.
DeSantis, appearing on the Ingraham Angle, was asked how “formidable” Harris is as a standard bearer for the Democratic Party, prompting a brutal answer from the Florida Governor.
“So, here’s the thing. I thought Biden picking her at first was the worst decision ever because she’s not great. But she’s like the best impeachment insurance and 25th Amendment insurance anyone could have,” DeSantis said.
“Because as bad as Biden is, even though he can barely read the teleprompter, and as much as people disapprove of him, nobody wants Harris, and so they’d much rather stick with Biden floundering around than actually turn the wheels of power over to somebody that clearly is in over her head,” DeSantis said.
Whether lines like this are a preview of 2024 remains to be seen. Meanwhile, polling continues to pour in showing Gov. Ron DeSantis with a shot at the presidency if he launches a campaign, including against Biden or Harris.
Though DeSantis has consistently said he’s not eyeing a run for the White House, a recent survey conducted by Echelon Insights suggests that whether Democrats nominated Biden or Harris in 2024, DeSantis would be at least competitive.
In what was a D+5 poll surveying 42% Democrats, 37% Republicans and the remainder otherwise unaffiliated, Biden holds a 4-point lead over DeSantis among likely voters, with 45% support compared to 41% for DeSantis. Among registered voters, Biden leads 45% to 39%.
DeSantis took 6% of Democrats polled against Biden, who got support from just 5% of Republicans in this survey.
Against Harris, DeSantis fared even better in the same poll. The Vice President took 43% of likely voters, 1 point above DeSantis. She had a 3-point lead with registered voters.
DeSantis drew 7% of Democrats polled against Harris, while she commanded just 4% support among Republicans. Independent voters preferred DeSantis against Harris by a strong 41% to 32%.

When you can’t defend 40 year inflation.
When you can’t defend record high fuel prices.
When you can’t defend the chaos at the Southern Border.
When you can’t defend record high city crime.
When you can’t defend the defund the police movement.
You revert to the old Democrat talking points of calling your opponents racist, homophobic, nazi, etc. Then at some point you will say they are coming to take you social security, your health care. You have nothing Joe Corsin and all but the 30% that shockingly think that “Dementia” Joe is doing a good job are going to take back our country in November.

Inflation is global and doesn’t start just because one man gets out of a chair and another man sits down. Had Trump done anything but sit on his balls and cheer while the economy overheated.. we might not have such big problems. Then it’s always the Democrats who can’t clean up hog grifter messes fast enough for the hogs. Until the GOP supporters more intervention into the free market then we can expect these highs and lows forever or until everyone is wiped out. Enjoy!

Total Bull shit reply from you corsin. Your ignorants runs amok. You are a empty vessel.
Inflation was 1.4% when Biden assumed potus on behalf of dr rice, and obummer. This inflation is due to the $1.9 trillion spending bill the Dums jammed and Biden signed. Period!
8% increase in 18 months.
Biden, aoc and sanders hate carbon, gas and oil. This was purposefully executed.
But don’t fret, as Dr Jill said, tacos for Hispanics. 29% approval in Florida, is death. 31% Quinnipiac Dem poll.
You dummycrats got a ok’d fashioned ads kicking coming. Up to 40 house seats flip to GOP, 3 to 4 in Florida.
6 senate seats. Gov wins bigly, Marco too, enjoy!
Enjoy the shellacking as Obummer said!

Are you mental kovar?
What commie country you immigrate from? The Dums jammed a $1.9 trillion spending bill, inflation was 1.4%. What part of your socialist economics you don’t comprehend?
You had the greatest job growth in the U S history under potus 45. Blue collar, middle class, and working class. Wages accelerated to top level in late in 19 and early 20, pre pandemic.
Please, you guys love to F it all up and cry Repubs.
Rising tide for all, 2.8% unemployment per Gov in Florida.
Tom

Ofcoure it is kovar.
Impeached Biden and Mereck Garland, for sure!
Maybe incompetent Granholm too.
How about Adan schiff, Raskin and Lofgren will be expelled from new Congress, with new Repub majority.
Done!
You are an idiot kovar. Inflation blew up from 1.4% to 10% due to Dem Dums. $1.9billion jammed spending bill in March of 21.
You soros Manchurians are clueless.
DeSantis saved Florida, even for liars like you kovar, corsin, Elliot and the others. Florida 2.8% unemployment!
Thanks to Ron.

Murdering babies? What sort of stupidity is that? A baby is a person that has been born already. Also inflation wasn’t invented by the Dems… doesn’t happen just because one man gets out of a chair and another man sits down. Lastly, we saw your so called Christian values when you elected Trump…then again on January the 6th. Poop throwing sub-apes…nut jobs…need Baker Act.

Republicans are America’s problem in health related issues, sensible gun control, women’s health, voting rights and border control issues. They block common sense legislation to improve the lives of all Americans on these life saving issues.
Take for example DeSantis’s “don’t say gay” idiotic bill! Ron DeSantis leads from behind with a non-caring attitude of the future ramifications of his actions. He’ll gloat when transgender children are targeted with bullying! Just yesterday, Florida’s largest school district in Dade county canceled middle and high school sex education classes because of government pressure. Florida is already missing 9000 teachers …. How many more will throw in the towel?
There is ONLY ONE RESOLUTION……VOTE REPUBLICANS OUT OF OFFICE! REPUBLICANS ARE AMERICA’S PROBLEM.

Is Ron DeSantis a Governor or just another sad Trump acolyte political hack?
Gallop poll on “party affiliation”
27% Republican
27% Democrat
43% Independent
Join us at the Lincoln Project or any of the other six ‘never Trump’ organizations that are increasing in daily membership.
Together, we can solve America’s gun problems, women’s health care, fake voting narratives, etc …..
……but we cannot work within the framework of today’s Republican Party. It’s time to remove Republicans from office.
