As GovRonDeSantis emerges as the leading Trump alternative, he's largely avoided fellow GOP scrutiny. However, as his star grows with the party's right flank, DeSantis is taking heat for his position on a top foreign policy matter.
DeSantis, the only GOP name that comes anywhere close to the former president in primary polls, has largely avoided scrutiny from fellow Republicans since emerging as the leading Trump alternative. However, as his star grows with the party's right flank, the Florida governor is taking heat from top establishment 2024 hopefuls for his position on a top foreign policy matter: the war in Ukraine.
"We’ve got to speak plainly to the American people about the threats that we face,” the former vice president said while calling for “strong American leadership on the world stage.” Christie, who made a career off his rhetorical candidness, told donors while speaking at the conference to"stop whispering" about their unease with Trump and warned that the safer course was not to"just nominate Trump Lite."
Taking aim at DeSantis specifically, Christie called the Florida governor's recent comments about sliding into a proxy war with China"one of the most naive things I’ve ever heard in my life," as the United States is already locked in such a conflict.
