DeSantis Warns GOP Will Lose In 2024 If Election Focuses On Trump’s Legal Woes
HuffPost
“We’re going to lose if voters are making a decision based on that," the Florida governor and 2024 rival said at a CNN town hall.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis warned Tuesday that Republicans are “going to lose” in November’s presidential election if former President Donald Trump is named the party’s nominee.
“If Donald Trump is the nominee, the election will revolve around all these legal issues — his trials, perhaps convictions if he goes to trial and loses there, and about things like Jan. 6,” DeSantis, a 2024 rival, said during a CNN town hall.
“We’re going to lose if that’s the decision voters are making based on that. We don’t want it to be a referendum on those issues,” he added.
Trump is the first former president in U.S. history to face criminal charges.
He has been sued in New York and indicted in Georgia, Florida, New York and Washington. The charges against him include allegations that he plotted to reverse Georgia’s 2020 election results, that he was involved in a hush-money scheme ahead of his 2016 election, that he mishandled classified documents and obstructed federal authorities’ efforts to recover them, and that he fraudulently inflated his business assets by billions.
