“Trump’s had his time and it’s time to find someone new and younger who can appeal to a broader segment of the electorate.”
Nicholas speculated that the GOP could potentially target states not previously in the game.
He added: “A new candidate could expand our field of states in 2024 because he could say he’s new and that.” democrat is the same age, same age.
Matt Goodwin, a professor of politics at the University of Kent, revealed that DeSantis is a very “credible and competent” challenger to the former president.

“He is smart, cultured and politically savvy with a track record of success.
“There’s a reason DeSantis is the clear second favorite in the opinion polls. He’s quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with.”
