Cuccinelli praises DeSantis’ presidential demeanor at Republican debate.
MILWAUKEE — Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) Shines in Debate, Gains Momentum
During Wednesday night’s debate, Gov. Ron DeSantis skillfully avoided attacks and left his supporters hopeful for a surge in the polls. With his impressive track record as a two-term governor of Florida and his strong condemnation of COVID-19 lockdown policies, DeSantis garnered praise from both his followers and new voters.
“He doesn’t take outside advice, as we know,” said Ken Cuccinelli, head of the pro-DeSantis Never Back Down PAC, with a hint of humor. “But I think that he’s still a thoughtful person. He’s making his own decisions. If he stays in the race with conviction, how does that change the dynamic? I think that dynamic is going to have to come through voters.”
Cuccinelli acknowledged DeSantis’s recent dip in the polls as a “minor slide,” but he believes that the debate marked the true beginning of the campaign. “This is when millions of people, for the first time, will see Ron DeSantis and other candidates in person without the filter,” he explained. “He looked very presidential tonight.”
