Polls say recently that Donald Trump is running away with the GOP! DUH!




So shocking nobody the now so called former President Donald Trump (Only former because he won!) is running away with his lead in the 2024 in the Republican presidential primary, consistently on top by double digits in multiple polls recently.

On the June survey Emerson College had Trump lead DeSantis by a 38-percentage-point margin, 59% to 21%. Friends these numbers were worse, however, than his margin in the same poll two months ago, when he led by 46 points.


The poll also showed what former Vice President Mike Pence and others looked like and the traitor former VP came in third, at 6%. 



The now former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley followed with 4% also entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy at 2%. Not many know about him and he seems like a good enough guy but after Barrack Obama I don't know if we're ready for someone in the white house with a "Muslim Name" again. Not to sound like a bigot but Obamanation might have ruined that chance for another person with a Muslim name for a while.

So yes Donald Trump is leading by a margin of 20 points or more in other major polls taken in June. YouGov/Yahoo News’ recent survey, he is up 53% to 33% over DeSantis.

A YouGov/The Economist poll from earlier this month showed that 41% of likely Republican primary voters believe Trump will probably win against President Joe Biden the highest among the pack, followed by DeSantis at 40% and Pence at 24%.

And on Sunday, NBC News released a survey conducted by Hart Research Associates and Public Opinion Strategies that shows Trump’s lead has expanded by five points since before his indictment in April, from 46% to 51%.

DeSantis’ lead dropped over the same period from 31% to 22% in that poll, with Pence and Haley receiving small one-point bumps each.

“For the first time in history, a former president has been indicted, and we can’t find a marker in this survey that it’s had an impact with his standing,” said Public Opinion Strategies co-founder Bill McInturff.

If President Joe Biden's Justice Department truly seeks to damage former President Donald Trump with investigations and indictments, it is not working.

Even the latest NBC News poll finds Trump has expanded his lead on Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and the rest of the primary field to 29 points, nearly doubling his lead from April (15 points). And we know much hate mainstream media has for Trump and NBC has not been kind to the former President.

So far the 51% majority of Republican primary voters nationwide now pick Trump over DeSantis (22%), former Vice President Mike Pence (7%), former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (5%), with no other candidate getting more than 4%, according to the poll. The question after he recently got booed off stage is why does Chris Christie think people like him enough to be taken serious for the job? He's a slob, a Rino, an idiot, and worse of all! A Traitor.

"For the first time in history, a former president has been indicted, and we can't find a marker in this survey that it's had an impact with his standing," Republican pollster Bill McInturff of Public Opinion Strategies told NBC News.

Trump's support "is a strong starting number," McInturff added. "Something has to happen to shift this race." A 37-count federal indictment is not it. Trump was at 46% to DeSantis' 31% in April, which was conducted shortly after Trump's Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg indictment.

"Not only are they sticking with Trump post-federal indictment, there are several signs that his support is growing or others are losing ground, particularly Ron DeSantis," Democrat pollster Jeff Horwitt of Hart Research Associates said of Republican voters.

Republican strategists have long noted a full field of challengers to Trump would merely split the share of the anti-Trump vote, while Trump holds a rock-solid base.

There is some of that found in this NBC poll, as the two-candidate Trump versus DeSantis race shows Trump picking up 9 points (60% support) and DeSantis gaining 14 points (36%) when the rest of the field is removed.

That 5-point boost is not enough to break Trump's hold on the Republican Party, although this is a nationwide poll and not a state-by-state primary delegate breakdown.

There are 64% of Republican voters who see the indictments and investigations of Trump as politically motivated, even if half of the party's voters are ready to consider a candidate other than Trump, according to the poll.

In a head-to-head hypothetical general election matchup, NBC News' poll gives Biden (49%) a 4-point edge over Trump (45%), which is just outside the margin of error.

"Looking back at 2020, the election was a referendum on Donald Trump," Horwitt, the Democrat pollster, told NBC News. "And if we have a Biden-Trump rematch, there are powerful signs that the focus will once again be more on Trump than Biden."

The NBC News poll was conducted June 16-20 among 1,000 registered voters and has an overall margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points. There were 500 Republican primary voters polled with a margin of error of plus or minus 4.38 percentage points.

Trump Explains 'Ron DeSanctimonious' Nickname for Ron DeSantis


My favorite Former President Donald Trump finally explained why he calls Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, his 2024 GOP presidential primary rival, as "Ron DeSanctimonious." Trump, who has also repeatedly called the Republican Gov. "Ron DeSanctus" along with a good one I like "Meatball Ron," but he finally explained the "DeSanctimonious" nickname during a Fox News interview that aired recently.

The former 45 also took credit for DeSantis' 2018 Florida gubernatorial election victory, while telling host Bret Baier that he used the derogatory moniker because the governor had shown that he was "disloyal" by deciding to challenge him for the presidency. To be honest I didn't know who DeSantis was until Trump endorsed him and only voted for him BASED on Trumps endorsement. This is why I'm with Trump on this one. Ron needs to wait until 2028.

"I got him elected and I thought it was very disloyal when he said 'yes, I'd run," Trump said. "I got him past two races. I got him past the primary because he was losing by 30 points or more ... It's a loyalty [question], I'm a big loyalist." AS I am Mr President "Some people say ... loyalty doesn't mean anything in politics," he continued. "I say, 'to me, it does.' I got the guy elected. He came to see me, let's say weeping, because he was dead ... As soon as I endorsed him, he won the primary, it was over." Like I stated I AM Proof of this claim.

The Merriam-Webster online dictionary defines "sanctimonious" as "hypocritically pious or devout."

Trump, who remains the GOP frontrunner despite facing federal and state felony criminal trials, went on to suggest that DeSantis should have dropped plans to run against him in the 2024 election "just out of respect."

Newsweek has reached out to the DeSantis campaign via its website for comment.

DeSantis, who is likely aware of the ex-president's continued popularity among Republicans, has been reticent to engage with Trump's rhetoric directly since announcing his intention to challenge him in 2024. However, the governor did address the ex-president's most frequent nickname for him before officially announcing his candidacy, saying, "I kind of like it," during a Piers Morgan interview in March. "I don't know how to spell DeSanctimonious," DeSantis said. "I don't really know what it means but, you know, I kind of like it. It's long. It's got a lot of vowels. I mean, we'd go with that. That's fine." So he just told the world he likes being disloyal? hmmm

"You know, you can call me whatever you want," he added. "I mean, just as long as you also call me a winner." The governor's wife, Casey DeSantis, has also recently been handed the nickname "Walmart Melania" a reference to former first lady Melania Trump by critics that include some Trump supporters. HAHA I have not heard this one myself but that's was hilarious. "Walmart Melania" LMAO!

Trump himself has not publicly referred to Casey DeSantis with the nickname, the former president has a long history of using derogatory nicknames to refer to his political opponents, including former allies who have since turned against him.

Last month, Trump referred to his former White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany as "milktoast" an apparent misspelling of "milquetoast," a jab for a timid or bland person after she suggested that the Florida governor could be "closing the gap" in Iowa's GOP primary race.

Now this is what that means I guess.... 
"Etymology. From the character Caspar Milquetoast of the comic strip The Timid Soul, created by American cartoonist Harold Tucker Webster (1885–1952) and first published in 1924; the character was named after the American dish milk toast (“a food consisting of toasted bread in warm milk”)"

Trump also repeated an attack line that he has used against a significant number of his Republican critics during his attack on McEnany, calling her a "RINO," or "Republican in name only." I like her not just in looks but she was his Press Secretary for a bit so I don't know much about this one I have to look into why they beefing. Might be perhaps cause she's endorsed "DeSanctimonious" ? Don't know but if I get more information on this one I'll post on it. Either way I wonder why Ron likes the nickname?

IS He admitting that he's well not a Loyal dude? 
Now let me be clear here I mean I would vote for him DeSantis in 2028 Just NOT in 2024 because... Well... I sorta... Kind off... YES!




DeSantis Fires Back at Trump: ‘Check Out the Scoreboard’


Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis responded to attacks from former President Donald Trump and the media on Tuesday ate it up like usual anything that had TRUMP or DeSANTIS on it will be big time headlines now. They said that T
rump made a flurry of attacks against DeSantis in the days surrounding Election Day, calling him "Ron DeSanctimonious" and claiming to be responsible for his success in Florida. DeSantis.

Trump's most credible rival for a presidential run in 2024,
 remained silent on the issue until responding to questions on the topic at a Tuesday press conference.

"One of the things I've learned in this job is when you're leading, when you're getting things done, you take incoming fire. That's just the nature of it," DeSantis said in response to a question about Trump. "I roll out of bed in the morning and I have corporate media outlets that have a spasm just because I'm getting up in the morning, and it's just constantly attacking."

"I think what you learn is all of that is just noise, and really what matters is are you leading, are you getting in front of issues, are you delivering results for people, and are you standing up for folks," he continued. "At the end of the day I would just tell people to go check out the scoreboard from last Tuesday night."

Trump slammed DeSantis as "an average REPUBLICAN Governor with great Public Relations" in a statement last week. "And now, Ron DeSanctimonious is playing games! The Fake News asks him if he’s going to run if President Trump runs, and he says, "I’m only focused on the Governor’s race, I’m not looking into the future." 

Well, in terms of loyalty and class, that’s really not the right answer," Trump said in the Truth Social thread after saying DeSantis came to him in 2017 in "desperate shape" ahead of his first gubernatorial election and Trump "fixed his campaign."

CHARLAMAGNE THA GOD: DEMS 'GOT NOBODY' TO DEFEAT TRUMP, DESANTIS IN 2024

DeSantis' response comes just hours before Trump is expected to announce his 2024 presidential run at Mar-a-Lago.

Criticism of Trump, and support for DeSantis, have surged in the week following the disappointing midterm election results for Republicans. Many conservatives blamed Trump for endorsing poor candidates in key Senate and House races.

Meanwhile, Republicans in DeSantis' Florida fared extremely well, with the governor dispatching Democratic challenger Charlie Crist by nearly 20 points.

Many conservative commentators took the election results as a sign it was time for the GOP to move on from Trump. Commentators argued that Trump's candidates turned easy victories into close races, and close races into losses.

"All the chatter on my conservative and GOP channels is rage at Trump like I've never seen," Michael Brendan Dougherty, a senior writer at National Review, wrote on Twitter. "'The one guy he attacked before Election Day was DeSantis the clear winner, meanwhile, all his guys are s---ing the bed.'"
