“Ron DeSoros.” “Ron DeSatan.” “Ron DePLANTis.” As the Florida governor — real name Ron DeSantis — explores a 2024 run, he is finding the conspiracy theories that Donald Trump and his allies have aimed at rivals for years are coming for him as well.
Hungarian-American business magnate, investor and philanthropistGov. Ron DeSantis speaks during a news conference in Doral, Fla., March 1, 2023.
The attacks often nod to one of the many unfounded conspiracy theories floating around in far-right circles: election fraud, vaccine dangers, Soros and even QAnon, the online conspiracy movement that believes, among other things, in the existence of a fictional cult that preys on children.The attacks underscore the power that conspiracy theories continue to hold over Republican politics heading into the 2024 presidential election.
Mike Lindell, the MyPillow executive and an election denier, quickly found a role for DeSantis in his elaborate election fraud narrative. Lindell said, falsely, that Florida was spared from widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election because DeSantis had a close relationship with Dominion Voting Systems, an election software company targeted by election deniers.
In an email, Locke pointed to a podcast appearance where she called the claims “silly” and said that she had known DeSantis since before he entered politics. DeSantis was forced to play catch-up, making broad appeals to conspiratorial groups within the Republican Party.
