Howard Dean, former chairman of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), stated Thursday on CNN‘s “Anderson Cooper 360” that Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is not a good presidential candidate because he is “not a nice guy.”
I love when a Democrat tells us that a Republican is not a good candidate, especially this lunatic. “YAAAAAH!”
Cooper inquired, “So next week, former Vice President Pence, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie expected to jump into the race. Is this turning into 2015-2016 all over again?”
“Not yet,” Dean replied, “but it may.” He added, “The big difference is that there is a fair amount of appetite among Republicans not to have Trump. I mean, Trump is the leading vote-getter, but he’s only sometimes at 50%. So if the vote were held today, Trump would get the nomination easily, because everybody else is going to split the vote.”
“I personally don’t think DeSantis is a particularly good candidate,” he said. “I did in the beginning, but he’s cranky. He’s short with the press. He is not very articulate. He is not a nice guy and that matters in a general election. So he, up until recently, has been the candidate that would be the obvious one to take over the mantle from Trump. I think it’s much more open today than it was a couple of weeks ago. I think this business with Walt Disney is just insane, and he’s just got some terribly bad advice on that.”
DeSantis is “short with the press” because the press is always short with him. They treat him the same way they treated Trump in 2016. It only got worse from there when they realized that Trump wasn’t your typical wishy-washy RINO Republican who was terrified of upsetting the reporters.

It wasn’t the Florida governor’s business until Disney made it his business by coming out against a bill passed by the Florida legislature to protect young kids in the classroom. Disney not only came out against the bill but went along with the lie, calling it the “Don’t say gay” bill even though it doesn’t say that anywhere in the bill. The word gay doesn’t even appear. Disney also vowed to attack the governor and the state legislature. We can’t have corporations threatening a state government that was duly elected by the voters.
The attacks on DeSantis by leftists are because they fear him. Like Trump, DeSantis is a no-nonsense Republican who doesn’t cower to criticism by leftists.
Remember, Dean said a year ago, “COVID-19 will end mini-Trump’s Florida career like it ended Trump’s presidency.” DeSantis went on to win reelection by a landslide.
Isn’t it funny how Democrats brag about how they used COVID to attack Trump? It turns out that DeSantis’s COVID policies were among the best of all 50 states.
I, for one, am hoping that after Trump wins the nomination, he picks DeSantis as his running mate. That would set the Florida governor up for an 8-year run in the White House. It could give us 12 years of America First policies that could change the course of our history for the better.
