Asked About His Poor Polling, DeSantis Gloats About His Corporate Cash
The National Pulse ^ | July 10, 2023 | RAHEEM J. KASSAM

When asked by Fox News host Will Cain about his struggling poll performance with Republican voters, the Florida Governor pivoted to boasting about his fundraising haul, mostly provided by corporate donors including many linked to globalist ideology, as questionable election practices.

Fox’s Cain predictably soft-balled DeSantis, telling him how much he likes him, before asking: “Why is it in your estimation the numbers have not reflected your success in Florida?”

DeSantis’s non-answer was more of an answer than you might first think.

“Did you just see the news today about the record fundraising haul we’ve had? Nobody’s been able to match that in the history of modern presidential politics,” DeSantis said. “So we’ve got a huge amount of support to be able to take the case to the people.”

In other words: cash is more important than sentiment amongst likely Republican voters.

DeSantis’s cash haul has come mostly from a transfer of cash from his Florida campaign, as well as globalist donors such as Ken Griffin.

WATCH:

Wow Fox News (the DeSantis News Network) might be turning on desantis!

Will Cain asked Rod why he isn’t connecting well with the voters. Rod avoids the questions & then brings up the amount of money he raised from globalist donors.

He also sounded like he wanted to cry. Rod… pic.twitter.com/wx92YYWION

Bragging about how he is bought and owned by Corporations might not be very smart.

“Wow Fox News (the DeSantis News Network) might be turning on desantis!“

Stopping Trump is all that matters and DeSantis is fading so they push someone else including Biden.

In reality, he has nothing to gloat about with that either.

Just another BS story written by someone that doesn’t like DeSantis. Any comment can be spun anyway you want and the trained seals all clap. Big deal.

Getting a lot of corporate cash, huh? Well, don’t strain your shoulder patting yourself on the back. It’s not that mega donors adore you so much, governor. It’s that they hate and fear Trump so much. That’s the ticket. Trump has all the right enemies, and you governor, all the wrong friends.

Cash to amplify a candidate message few want is a waste of good cash.

All hat, no cattle.

hat = money
cattle = voters
