Townhall.com columnist Kurt Schichter polled readers on who they want to see on the Republican Presidential ticket in 2024. He expected Donald Trump to easily win, but he was surprised at the results, which aren’t scientific, but they do reflect his conservative readers: 45.7% want Trump, 50.1% want Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Schlichter ponders the meaning of those results, and he doesn’t believe it’s due to rejection of Trump. He still has strong Republican support and tremendous gratitude for what he did and the way he fought to make America great again. So why wouldn’t they want him to run again in 2024?

Some possibilities: he would be 78 years old. The left has spent years attacking him and trying to tar his reputation, and even though Republicans see through that, they’d still have to constantly fight the personal attacks while mounting a winning campaign. Or maybe they're just suffering from Trump fatigue. Trump does bring a lot of drama, while DeSantis is just as conservative, but is younger, more focused, less of a lightning rod, and is racking up a lot of conservative achievements of his own.

Read Schlichter’s column, then feel free to give your opinion in the comments section on whether you want to see Trump run again in 2024, or do you think it’s time for someone new, and if so, who?

    I love what Trump did and was trying to do. Do not particularly care for him. I would support Gov. DeSantis 100%. Running mate -- Pence or even Nicki to capture the women of both parties.

    Ron DeSantis would be a great president. He's tough and doesn't let anyone push him around. And he would know when to keep his mouth closed. As much as Trump did for the country, I wouldn't want to put up with another 4 years of the Dems trying to destroy him by fabricating lies about him.

    I fully agree that we had President Trump for the right time in our country, and that he did a masterful job, really, all over the world. But I think the anger/vitriol from the left is something we conservatives would like to be done with (not that they'll ever actually stop!). But because of Mr. Trump's tendency to mock the media etc., and their coverage of him being so unfair and unhinged, I would like more stability in our leader and our nation. I think Gov. Ron DiSantis would provide that, plus he's younger, and he would put many of our wisest people around him. He gets to the point and comes off as a true leader; the one we desperately need. I pray daily for our nation, and God is still on the throne, no matter who is in "power"!
