His name has taken a boost from the recent Conservative get tougher in Florida for CPAC….
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) has seen his star rise over the past year as Republicans look to him as a potential successor to former President Trump.
DeSantis’s profile grew early on after he took his cue from Trump by not shutting down his state in response to the coronavirus pandemic. Though Florida has suffered heavy losses from the pandemic, the governor’s approach earned him broad support from conservatives.
Since then, DeSantis has only grown more popular among the Republican Party’s grassroots, with some already pushing for him to be the 2024 presidential nominee.
“What’s so appealing about Ron is very simple: He is the most influential and important person in the state that is the Republican Party center of the universe right now,” said Florida-based Republican strategist Ford O’Connell.
Recent statewide polling shows DeSantis’s popularity on the uptick. A survey from Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy released on Monday found the governor with a 53 percent approval rating, up from his 45 percent approval rating last July.
DeSantis’s growing support was on full view at the recent Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), which was held in his home state.

DeSantis won’t make a move until Trump makes a decision to not run.
If Trump decides not to,then DeSantis can fight it out with his two Senators,Scott and Rubio who also harbor presidential ambitions.
Oh ,and for anyone who thought Mike Pence was anything more than a died in the wool Trump cultist?
Forget it.
Despite being pursued by the Trump domestic terrorists on Jan 6 and being openly mocked by the Leader of the pack himself,Pence made his position abundantly clear today.
He’s still “all in” as he expressed concern about “the integrity of the 2020 election “claiming “troubling” voting irregularities.
The trouble with all this?Its a blatant lie and he knows it!Yet here he is,still regurgitating these falsehoods and stooging for Trump again.
“Sorry, Boss, the Constitution made me do it !!!”
