Republicans Go to Bat For DeSantis Amid Attacks From Trump

As Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sees his stock rise in the political world, he's come under increasing attacks from former President Trump.

Thus far, Trump's goal in politics is to get back into the White House. However, polls show that if DeSantis gets into the 2024 presidential race, he could very well stop Trump from securing the nomination.

There are growing voices in the GOP that warn it's time to move on from Trump. PACs like Ready For Ron, NH Draft DeSantis, and Ron to the Rescue have likewise emerged to encourage the Florida governor to run for president during the upcoming election cycle.

DeSantis hasn't confirmed or ruled out a 2024 presidential run. Nevertheless, as Trump continues to go after DeSantis, growing numbers of GOP members are going to bat for the Florida governor.

Rallying around DeSantis

In the ever-increasing dynamic of DeSantis vs. Trump, a decent portion of Senate Republicans are siding with the former over the latter.

Texas Sen. John Cornyn, for instance, pushed back against Trump's assertion that DeSantis would be "disloyal" if he entered the upcoming presidential race.

According to Cornyn, the Florida governor is polling well and would qualify as "new blood" the Republican Party needs. The Texas lawmaker then acknowledged DeSantis' massive reelection victory in Florida last year.

Wyoming Sen. Cynthia Lummis directly contradicted Trump's narrative that DeSantis would be abandoning loyalty if he ran in 2024. In doing so, Lummis explained many candidates are expected to campaign in the upcoming presidential election, including those whom Trump endorsed and who worked for Trump during his administration.

Similar feedback arrived from Sens. Marco Rubio and Mike Rounds. Both Republicans stated anyone can run in 2024 and it's actually healthy for the Republican Party to have a wide array of contenders to choose from.

A warning sign for Trump

If Trump insists on waging these unprovoked, petty attacks against DeSantis, he could very well see it backfire. As seen by the comments from Senate Republicans, many in the conservative movement like the Florida governor and are not against him running for president.

Nevertheless, given what Trump has demonstrated thus far, he will likely continue going after DeSantis.
