Chris Nelson Defends Ron DeSantis, Arguing That He Should be the GOP Nominee

Independent Reporter, Contributor to the Floridian Press and Ron DeSantis apologist Chris Nelson joins this episode of The Jeff Dornik Show to break down why he not only believes that Ron DeSantis is the best candidate in the 2024 Presidential Race, but why he thinks DeSantis will actually be the next president, despite being so far behind in the poll numbers.

I found myself agreeing with some of the Team DeSantis critiques of Donald Trump, which is not something you’d expect of a Trump supporter. However, it’s important that we call balls and strikes, and Trump was dead wrong in his handling of covid, especially. To-date, he has not changed course in his view of what should’ve been done.

Nelson argued that DeSantis has changed course on covid, and that this shows his presidential qualities. There is definitely an argument to be made on that specific issue.

However, I raised my concerns regarding Ron DeSantis weaponizing the Florida Government against Woke Disney for practicing their Free Speech rights. While Nelson and I didn’t see eye to eye on this issue, it’s an important one to debate, as I’m concerned that this authoritarian streak in DeSantis is not what we should want in our GOP nominee.

Overall, this was a very good discussion over our differences. We need more debates like what Chris Nelson and I had, as opposed to the smear campaign both candidates’ teams are running against each other.
