Many of former President Trump's supporters see Gov. DeSantis as the next great hope for the GOP — even if they believe a campaign against Trump is quixotic.
March 26, 2023, 4:47 PM UTCWACO, Texas — Tammy Condra has very strong views about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and his possible run for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
But her feelings about DeSantis are hardly universal among Trump supporters, which may help explain why Trump often reserves his most personal criticism of the Florida governor for more private settings.described But the critiques of DeSantis’ record proved tame in comparison to the personal attacks Trump delivered as he spoke with a handful of reporters on his jet after the rally. “He’s got no personality,” Trump said, musing that DeSantis might be working in a cigar shop if not for Trump’s endorsement of his campaign at a crucial moment in 2018.
Ron Kearney, who lives about 100 miles west of Waco, said he's with Trump right now but will give DeSantis a look.
