DeSantis continues to lose ground as Ramaswamy holds steady

Three weeks after the first Republican presidential primary debate, the latest Fox News survey finds Donald Trump has increased both his lead in the race and his strength of support.

Sixty percent of Republican primary voters back Trump in the primary race, up from 53% in the Fox News pre-debate August survey.

Trump did not participate in the August 23 GOP debate hosted by Fox News.

At 13% support, Ron DeSantis sees a downtick of 3 points since the debate, while Vivek Ramaswamy holds steady at 11%. Next is Nikki Haley with 5%, Mike Pence and Tim Scott at 3% each, and Chris Christie at 2%. All remaining candidates receive 1% or less.

Some of Trump’s biggest gains come from women (+10), voters under age 45 (+9), White evangelicals (+8), and White men without a college degree (+8).

DeSantis lags notably among women, he’s down 8 points with them since August.

"Unless something changes, this is Trump’s race to lose," says Republican pollster Daron Shaw who conducts the Fox News Poll with Democrat Chris Anderson. "The question is, how likely is it that something changes enough to shake Trump’s Republican supporters loose and get them to look at someone else?"

The Fox poll now looks like a @catturd2 poll.

Desantis and Ramaswamy would make good puppets to drive more hate and division for The Deep State Coupsters , Nikki Haley swoons the Deep states Military and Medical industrial Complex, so "Them" might let those 3 slip through

But Trump is Kryptonite for the deep state system, they will sic the surgically placed Dominion Machines and ballot stuffing hordes on him fo sho

DeSantis is the most deep state swamp creature of all running for 2024 nomination. I would take the SC senator before DeSantis.

I’ll vote Trump if I have to write him in. The republican party gave us Bush and McCain and Dole and Romney. I am never voting for their candidate again.

yep, If we can't get Trump in this time, I think he would be more effective in building a news/entertainment network that would earn credibility and become the antidote for "Ministry Of Truth" Propaganda machine that is currently in power over people's minds now

Imagine having actual Investigative reporting and having information presented like the weather report instead of tainted with biased opinion.

I do not think Trump will be very effective against the Deep State (unless a miracle happens) but it would be 4 more years of aggravating entertainment as they attack Trump with everything they can make up .

My fantasy is that Donald Trump would aquire Fox News in a hostile takeover ...LOL

Rumor has it that Disney is selling the ABC Network - wouldn’t it be cool if Trump Corporate bought it, hired real honest to goodness journalists with morals and had the newscasters actually report the news, all the news, no hiding news based on the politics, and with no biased spin?
