Trump Not Shy About Telling the Public He Would Crush DeSantis if They Faced Off

Over the Weekend, Pres. Donald Trump told Yahoo News in an interview that he would defeat Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in a presidential primary matchup for 2024.

“If I faced him, I’d beat him like I would beat everyone else,” Trump said, adding that “I don’t think I will face him. I think most people would drop out, I think he would drop out.”

Trump said these comments in response to a straw poll conducted at the Western Conservative Summit, which found that those surveyed preferred DeSantis as the 2024 candidate over the former president.

A number of Republicans became upset after the former president gave an interview with the said news publication as Yahoo News is left-leaning.

Meanwhile, DeSantis’ popularity seems to have gone up among the conservatives in America as he puts emphasis on governing and protecting the rights of Florida citizens while the COVID-19 pandemic continues. He has also become a key figure in going head to head against the Biden administration in connection to several issues, such as illegal immigration.
