I hope some Desantis supporters are willing to honestly answer a question.

I don't want to influence the responses so I won't say too much more. I'll only add that this isn't a gotcha and that there's no wrong answer to this question.

Question
========

On a scale of 1 to 10, how much did last night's result surprise you? 1 (I expected Desantis to lose by a lot and he did) to 10 (I expected Desantis to win last night and I was shocked that he lost by so much).

Why? You larping clowns always claim to know what all "ronbots" are thinking anyway. Just do your standard Carnac routine and skip the middle man.

I knew he’d come in 2nd, never met anyone who like Haley, she seemed more a plant.

Of course Trump had the most votes when it’s spread out between 5 candidates. It’s still 50% voting for Trump, 50% voting against Trump

They think him losing was a win. So where does that answer fit on your scale?

I am a registered independent, but really like Desantis. I think he has been a great governor, and is a true conservative. I am a true conservative.

I fully expected to see Trump win handily last night, and see him winning the Republican nomination with ease. I was hoping Desantis would come out 2nd, and am happy he did, as I abhor Haley.

No surprise, so 1. DeSantis is basically chasing the same voters as Trump, so with Trump in the race this was bound to happen.

I guess the question is this: By this fall, is Trump going to have felony convictions and imprisonment to deal with? Because if so, we damn sure should have some other option.

2? It’s not surprising the average American wants sizzle over substance.

Will still vote for him in the Florida primary as he’s the best candidate IMO but will also be happy that he’s our governor for a few more years (especially if Dems win the White House again).

Will still vote for trump over Biden or whoever they swap him with.

1.

I do not underestimate the grip Trump has on the Republican party. More than even the most devoted Trump superfan, I recognize him as the unrivaled leader of the Republican party since he won the nomination in 2016.

1 - I love Trump and DeSantis, I just think DeSantis would be better at accomplishing his agenda. But ill gladly support the Don. Either will get overraction retardation from the comminists on the left.

I’m a 1.
Also a transplant to Iowa from the south, was planning to go to the caucus, but due to the sub-zero temps, stayed home. MIGHT have gone if the race were closer.
Also, once Trump wins the nomination, I will fully support him with my vote.
