Ted Cruz (TX), Rand Paul (KY) and Josh Hawley (MO), among \u201cothers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump specifically referenced a straw poll that was conducted this year at CPAC that surveyed attendees on a wide range of issues.<\/p>\n<p>The most noteworthy results from the poll included:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"14\">\n<p><em>Thinking ahead, if the 2024 Republican primary for president in your state were held today among the following candidates, for whom would you vote?<\/em><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><em>Donald Trump \u2013 55%<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Ron DeSantis \u2013 21%<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Kristi Noem \u2013 4%<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Nikki Haley \u2013 3%<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Mike Pompeo \u2013 2%<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><em>Now among a different list of candidates, which does not include Trump, if the 2024 Republican primary for president in your state were held today, for whom would you vote?<\/em><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><em>Ron DeSantis \u2013 43%<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Kristi Noem \u2013 11%<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Donald Trump Jr. \u2013 8%<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Mike Pompeo \u2013 7%<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Ted Cruz \u2013 7%<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cI mean, you know, there\u2019s a, there\u2019s a pretty deep bench,\u201d Trump added. \u201cI\u2019ll make that decision sometime later, but there\u2019s a pretty deep bench. If you look at the polls, they love the job that I\u2019ve done. We had a 97 percent approval at C-PAC, a 97 percent approval on policies and different things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis is increasingly discussed as the emerging star of the Republican Party after the way that he navigated Florida throughout the coronavirus pandemic, which included outperforming many Democrat states that used strict lockdowns while he kept his state largely open.<\/p>\n<p>Joe Gruters, a Florida state senator and chairman of the state Republican Party, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/elections\/florida-s-desantis-positions-himself-trump-s-heir-white-house-n1261547\">said<\/a> of DeSantis, \u201cI think he\u2019s the odds-on favorite to be the next president.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tony Fabrizio, Trump\u2019s chief pollster in 2016 and 2020, said of DeSantis:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"10\">\n<p><em>When you look under the hood of those numbers, DeSantis garners a lot of support from Trump voters in the absence of Trump. As the media beat him up as the anti-Cuomo and DeSantis stood up for himself, voters liked that. They associate that type of scrappiness and speaking your mind with President Trump. He is inheriting a lot of that.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>DeSantis has had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/new-poll-numbers-show-florida-republican-governor-ron-desantis-is-a-smash-hit\">very high<\/a> poll numbers in the past with nearly every key demographic of voter and appears to appeal to both the Trump-wing of the GOP and he appeals to the establishment-wing of the party.<\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
