New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation Presidential Primary is on Jan. 23, and Florida’s Governor will be part of at least two debates in the Granite State.
The Ron DeSantis campaign confirmed that the candidate would debate other Republican candidates on Jan. 21 on CNN. This event follows a debate on New Hampshire’s WMUR three days prior.
“Given the short amount of time between the Iowa Caucus and New Hampshire’s primary, participating in multiple debates on different networks is the best way for Granite State voters to hear the contrast between the candidates as well as their closing arguments,” said Communications Director Andrew Romeo.
Romeo went on to cast aspersions on two rivals of his client.
“Nikki Haley’s recent flub about the cause of the Civil War shows that she isn’t ready for prime time, but this debate will give her an opportunity to finally clean up her mess with the people of New Hampshire. And for Donald Trump, this debate will provide him with the perfect setting to stop cowering behind his teleprompter and step into the arena.”
It’s not entirely clear if New Hampshire voters care who steps into the arena, however, if polls mean anything.
An American Research Group survey shows a two-person race, with just 4 points separating Donald Trump (33%) and Nikki Haley (29%). Ron DeSantis, at just 6%, is also 7 points behind Chris Christie (13%) in the ARG poll, and just 1 point ahead of Vivek Ramaswamy.
A survey from the St. Anselm College Survey Center likewise found DeSantis at 6%, with the pollster claiming his support has “all but disappeared.”
According to the Race to the White House polling average, DeSantis’ 8% in the state puts him behind Trump, Haley and Christie, but ahead of Ramaswamy.

What did Nikki said it was, economics?
Slavery is another word for trickle down economics.
Did she say it was states rights? Like the overturn of Roe v Wade allegedly was?
She’s just being one of today’s G0P, pretending their true isn’t some hideous thing but we all know better by now

Great plan! Near as I can see, the more people see you on TV, the more they see how weird and unlikeable you are.
And as for this, your words, Ron:
“Nikki Haley’s recent flub about the cause of the Civil War shows that she isn’t ready for prime time, but this debate will give her an opportunity to finally clean up her mess with the people of New Hampshire. And for Donald Trump, this debate will provide him with the perfect setting to stop cowering behind his teleprompter and step into the arena.”
Oh, yeah, what Nikki said was a flub, but you being on your high horse about it when you think it’s peachy keen to teach that some slaves “gained skills” they could use “later in life” as if that is an over-arching important thing in the whole history of American slavery, is pretty rich.
And as for Trump, you know he ain’t showing up for a primary debate. But it has nothing to do with teleprompters. Trump ignores teleprompters all the time, but he’s much better at riffing the way an audience wants him to than you are. I honestly don’t think you’d look better at a debate with Donald Trump there, and it ain’t because I think Trump is some sort of master debater.
So, please stop, please stop running for president sooner rather than later. Come back to Florida, get your kids a puppy (from a shelter please!) and spend your time trying to fix the many messes we have here. Home insurance issues, expanding medicaid and affordable housing are on the short list.

Good evening Ameeica,
STAND BY FOR NEWS:
The voters of NH love Ron & Casey and want another Camalot like JFK and Jackie’s White House with Ron and Casey.
The opponants better start thinking of how they can wuss out on this upcoming debate with our next POTUS Ron DeSantis.
AND THATS THE REST OF THE STORY;

DeSantis complaining about another Republican who mishandled characterization of slavery, however accurate his criticism may be, is stunningly rich coming from him. His incompetent selection for state attorney general tells you all you need to know about the kind of black person he likes or respects.
