It’s a good day to endorse Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign.
Specifically, it’s Bob Good’s day, with the Never Back Down super PAC rolling out the Virginia Congressman’s endorsement Tuesday.
“Courageous conservative leadership is what’s needed to stand up against the insanity of woke corporations, corrupt Washington politicians, and continued attacks on our faith, family and freedoms,” Good asserted, by way of “unequivocally endorsing and encouraging” DeSantis to run for President.
Good extols DeSantis’ sense of “fearless conservatism,” and his endorsement continues a trickle of congressional announcements ahead of a likely presidential launch later this month.
He joins U.S. Reps. Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Chip Roy of Texas as out-of-state endorsers. Thus far, U.S. Rep. Laurel Lee, the former Florida Secretary of State appointed by DeSantis, is the only member of the Florida delegation who has backed the Governor.
Democrats decried the endorsement from Good, an “anti-choice extremist who wants a complete federal abortion ban.”
“Good’s endorsement comes as no surprise — DeSantis himself has repeatedly supported extreme anti-choice measures and signed an abortion ban last month that bans abortion before many women know they are pregnant. Today’s endorsement is yet another reminder that if MAGA Republicans like Ron DeSantis get their way in 2024, they will ban abortion nationwide,” the DNC War Room asserted.
Polling suggests Virginia may be more competitive for DeSantis than some other states.
Two somewhat recent public polls from Virginia have shown mixed messages, with the caveat that each was conducted weeks before the Donald Trump indictment that galvanized support of the former President.
A March survey from Differentiator Data of 500 likely voters showed DeSantis up 3 points over Trump, 37% to 34%, with the field farther back. A February survey released by Roanoke College showed the Florida Governor down 11 points to the former President.
In April, DeSantis won the Prince William County GOP straw poll, held at the annual Lincoln-Reagan Dinner in Woodbridge. That was said to be a “close” victory over Trump.

Bob Good is a Freedom Caucus nobody with no friends in congress, just like Desanctus was. Also an absolute freak of a religious zealot in the predictable Liberty University mold. Great endorsement!

If Rhonda gets two endorsement per Trump Conviction Day, he might get eight endorsements by the time it’s done. Too bad for him he probably won’t even get eight votes. His MAGAs, they already have their guy, and they don’t care what their guy does because the dummies fully believe it’s all “politically motivated, rigged by the deep state,” plus a lot of them are in prison now and cant’ even vote.
