It ain't over till it's over.

The endorsement is a win for DeSantis, who hopes to harness Reynolds’ star power among Iowa Republicans as he looks to jumpstart his stagnant campaign and establish himself as a clear alternative to front-runner Donald Trump in the race’s critical final months.

Reynolds plans to speak at DeSantis’ predebate rally Monday as well as a Davenport meet-and-greet Tuesday morning. She will then fly to Miami to help him fundraise around Wednesday’s debate.

The decision is likely to anger Trump, who has already lashed out at Reynolds over her apparent coziness with DeSantis, accusing her of being insufficiently loyal. Reynolds was a firm Trump ally while he was in the White House, but she withheld any endorsement of him early in the 2024 race.

...soon after the news broke, Trump's campaign fired off a statement saying, "Kim Reynolds apparently has begun her retirement tour early as she clearly does not have any ambition for higher office."

by Curt_Anderson on November 5, 2023 9:55 am I wonder if she considered Nikki Haley seriously. by HatetheSwamp on November 5, 2023 2:13 pm I'm guessing that you are not following what GOPs say and do in the primary race...from within the GOP world, anyway. I've had the clear impression that elected GOPs and prominent GOP media people are for DeSantis overwhelmingly. However, the GOP is the home of openness and inclusion, acceptance, tolerance, diversity and, as po'd say, EFFINfreedom. So endorsements aren't worth a hill of beans. In fact, as popular as Reynolds is, her endorsement may do DeSantis some harm. I doubt she considered Haley. For whatever reason, Haley's not a hit among big name GOPs...as far as I can tell. by HatetheSwamp on November 7, 2023 6:05 am Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds says Trump can’t win in 2024 as she endorses Ron DeSantis And, more and more, it seems unlikely that the Doddering Old Fool can win either. nbcnews.com by oldedude on November 7, 2023 8:20 pm My question is how sexist is curt? He "ASSumes" a woman will support a woman just because she's the same gender? That doesn't happen in the GOP. It's built on what you say, not what gender, gender-preference, race, race-wannabe you are or are not. It's about what you stand for. The CORE OF YOUR CHARACTER. by Curt_Anderson on November 7, 2023 10:31 pm OD, I didn't even think about Reynolds and Haley being the same gender. It just seems to me that DeSantis has loser stamped all over him. He is on his way down in the polls while Haley has been moving up. Go To Top
