Ron DeSantis is rolling out his “Declaration of Economic Independence” in New Hampshire, but that state’s Governor suggests “policy” alone won’t win him votes in the first-in-the-nation Primary.
During an interview with Hugh Hewitt, Gov. Chris Sununu said Granite State Republicans wanted to see “charisma and leadership” from Florida’s Governor.
“I was talking to DeSantis about this and all that. I said, don’t worry about the policy stuff. We’ve got that,” Sununu recounted. “You’ve got to be about character, about looking people in the eye, and you got to show that you’re not just viable to stand on the stage. You’re the one on the stage.”
“You are the leader, you are the winner, you’re the person that is going to inspire the rest of the party to get bigger and more excited,” Sununu continued. “So, it’s really about, kind of, a little bit of that charisma and leadership that they’ve got to show to folks one-on-one.”
Polling from New Hampshire suggests DeSantis is still in second place, but the field is quickly gaining on him.
One poll last week commissioned by American Greatness and conducted by National Research Inc. shows DeSantis with 11% support in the first-in-the-nation Primary State and a shaky hold on the No. 2 position, 30 points behind former President Donald Trump. Close behind at 8% are former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and U.S. Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina.
The latest J.L. Partners poll shows DeSantis with just 15% support, 27 points below Trump’s 42%. Christie and Scott are in a tie for third place with 8% each.
The American Pulse survey conducted between July 5 and July 11 shows Trump with 48% and DeSantis with 10.5%, just half a point above Christie’s 10%.
The Granite State Poll from the University of New Hampshire Survey Center shows the Florida Governor just 14 points behind the former President, 37% to 23%.
The Race to the White House polling average shows Trump ahead of DeSantis 41% to 14% in a crowded field and 49% to 29% if the race were somehow just two people.

Chris Sununu like a mushroom a bar. He a fun guy. Rhonda showing charisma and leadership? That is freekin’ hilarious!
“You are the leader, you are the winner, you’re the person that is going to inspire the rest of the party to get bigger and more excited,” Sununu continued. HAHAHAHAHA!
Trump should take a lesson from Sununu on how to mock Rhonda. Sununu’s got the goods on mocking Rhonda!

Charisma? He doesn’t have enough charisma to become an undertaker let alone a politician.

I saw a comment that DeSSantis “had [or maybe “didn’t have”] the charisma of a MANHOLE COVER”!!

Sorry Chris ….. that portion of the DeSantis Klown Kar went off the rails three years ago when he started on his path of right wing culture wars. There is no turning back.

Who were/are the slàvery praisers on DeSScumtis’s standards group?
How could they outvote the majority, the honest decènt people? Perhaps the latter had only 3/5ths of a vote.

Governor DeSantis has been a great governor but he has shown the American people he has no loyalty. If he’ll turn on those who have help get him where he’s at then he’ll turn on the American people for a globalist based policy.

“You’ve got to be about character, about looking people in the eye…”
I hope you’re not talking about desantis because he’s not able to do either of those things. Failure in slow motion.
