It’s official; we have a new frontrunner. A survey released Tuesday by USA Today-Suffolk University found that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is absolutely clobbering former President Donald Trump in voter preference, with 56% of Republican-leaning voters preferring DeSantis, compared to just 33% who want Trump.
The poll also found Trump’s favorable rating among Republicans cratering from 75% in October to 64% in December, with his unfavorable rating rising from 18% to 23%.
More than 60% of survey respondents said they want a presidential nominee who will continue Trump’s policies – but isn’t Trump, while just 31% said they want Trump himself to run.
“Republicans and conservative independents increasingly want Trumpism without Trump,” said David Paleologos, the director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center.
The poll also found that Biden would beat Trump 47% to 40% in a hypothetical 2024 rematch, while DeSantis would defeat Biden in a 2024 matchup 47% to 43%.

“More than 60% of survey respondents said they want a presidential nominee who will continue Trump’s policies – but isn’t Trump”
More than 77% of yidden surveyed at Har Sinai also said they wanted the Torah but would prefer it with just the 248 mitzvot aseh and w/o all the other negative stuff.
not in trouble at all…YWN may be for its slanted perspective but …Hashem rules….so lets start with this ….
And we all know how very accurate political polls are….
STOP DREAMING! Desantis is nmot running this time. It does not pay for him to take the chance. SORRRY!
STOP DREAMING! Desantis is not running this time. It does not pay for him to take the chance. SORRRY! But rebublicans will lose big time. Because they do not stick up for their own. Democs do. TRump is right regarding Mitch. Mitch is full of himself in a dreamworld. And upset about the senate. He will betray his party just to take revenge on Trump. קיין מסילת ישרים לערנען זיי ביידע ניט!
Desantis if he has sechel which he probably does will run in 2028 and win bigtime. Of course we hope and pray that Moshiach will be here by then. בשובה ונחת יוושעון. שצקמ. Amen
is שצקמ amen. wrong tying language. sorry
Multiple polls from diverse sources are showing the result. They don’t take into account that there may be other Republicans running in 2024 and the impact of “first past the post” in Republican primaries.
More importantly, any Republican other than Trump needs to get an enthusiastic endorsement from Trump in order to win the election. If Trump’s MAGA faction decides to stay home, the Democrats will win.
Can’t be! Fake news! Fraud! It’s rigged!
guys chill – have faith in hashem and not trump, yes he’s done some nice things but overall is inconsistent, wild and unreliable. (do i need to remind you whom he’s had dinner with recently???) seriously not everything about him is perfect and excuse me his language is horrible and vulgar – get over it – there may very well be others who are better positioned than him to win the presidency, leaders whom we dont need to filter out their speeches and can trully be proud of
Inconsistent, wild, unreliable? Have you not seen Trump govern for 4 years? Completely consistent-krpt his promises to american ppl unlike other presidents, wild? World peace for 4 years, as opposed to Biden getting us into wars, unreliable? Moved embassy..where have you been for 4 years??
