Get ready for a tough fight in the GOP presidential primary of 2024! The competitors are preparing for a fierce battle to secure the nomination, so the gloves are off.
As they spar vehemently, Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ spat is becoming worse.
The result of Ron DeSantis publicly criticizing Donald Trump was unexpected.
In order to defeat Trump, DeSantis and his backers want to make a significant showing at the Iowa Caucuses, which kick off the Primary Season.
Trump will seem to be the presumptive nominee if he wins in Iowa.
If DeSantis wins in Iowa, it may tarnish Trump’s reputation as unstoppable and cast question on whether the GOP is prepared for a new leader.
DeSantis positions himself as the protector of conservatism in their conflict with the awakened Left in an effort to secure the support of Evangelical Christians, the most significant voting bloc in Iowa.
DeSantis’ argument that “Florida is where woke goes to die” revolves from his conflict with Disney.
Disney fought against a law that forbade educators from using incorrect gender identification lesson plans to encourage transgenderism among their students.
With new law, DeSantis eliminates Disney’s unique governing rights.

Trump criticized DeSantis’ stance on the Disney problem. When DeSantis attempted to use it as leverage with Iowa’s Evangelical voters, this became into a cause of contention between the two.
In a Fox News interview, DeSantis paints Trump as a supporter of Disney’s progressive corporate culture.
“I mean, you know, they had mentioned there may be some differences with me and Donald Trump. And I think that those differences redound to my benefit in a place like Iowa. I mean, for example, you know, he’s taken the side of Disney in our fight down here in Florida. I’m standing for parents, I’m standing for children. And I think a multibillion dollar company that sexualizes children is not consistent with the values of Florida or the values of a place like Iowa,” DeSantis stated.
“He’s taken the side of Disney,” Disney is, DeSantis stated before stating, “a multibillion-dollar company that sexualizes children.”
On Truth Social, Trump fact-checked DeSantis in real-time.
“Ron DeSanctimonious just stated, without correction on Fox & Friends, that I was ‘backing’ Disney. Wrong! Fox should have read my posted TRUTH on Disney, but that’s not the game they play. Also, in the polls, I am beating Biden by a lot, ‘Rob’ isn’t! Also, WAY UP ON RON. Check out the DeSanctus speech at the Trump Rally I gave to get him elected. Not easy! p.s. I got 1.2 Million more votes in Florida than Ron, a little reported fact!” Trump stated.
Trump takes a firm line against Disney, charging that it supports transgenderism and holding DeSantis accountable for allowing it to occur.
“Disney has become a Woke and Disgusting shadow of its former self, with people actually hating it. Must go back to what it once was, or the ‘market’ will do irreparable damage. This all happened during the Governorship of ‘Rob’ DeSanctimonious. Instead of complaining now, for publicity reasons only, he should have stopped it long ago. Would have been easy to do – Still is!” Trump wrote.
Typically, Donald Trump is in touch with the Republican base.
With his silent posture on Disney’s contentious move, Trump shown an obvious ignorance of public sentiment, as seen by DeSantis’ resistance to their woke turn.
In the 2024 GOP Primary, the anti-woke movement on the Right will have a significant presence, as seen by Trump’s opposition to Disney’s sexualization of minors.
