With two new polls of key early states showing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis losing ground to former President Donald Trump and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, the main DeSantis-supporting super PAC is focusing on Republican voters who want to move on from the one-time commander-in-chief.
Never Back Down has spent more than $30 million to date on advertising
Despite the massive spending and fundraising haul, DeSantis has not made any headway in the race for the GOP nomination.
“The way we look at this race is that there are three buckets,” a source familiar with Never Back Down’s advertising strategy tells The Post. “There’s the Trump base. Those are voters that are definitely with him and are never leaving him. There’s the middle bucket, which are voters who voted for President Trump..... but they feel like it’s time to move on.
However, the so-called middle bucket “has grown” in the last few months, ... and is “consolidating behind DeSantis,” the source said.

team desantis must be doing their own internal polls that say so, so to them, it must be true!
lol
Democrat policies like gun control, increased LGBTQ+ rights, letting black criminals out of prison, and spending trillions of dollars on government programs?
Glad to hear it. At some point a person has to put their foot down, and say they're not going to continue to reward a party that only knows you when a new election cycle rolls around. They've taken the majority of their registered voters for granted, for many years.
desantis has lots of baggage you just are not aware of yet. baggage like liar, and will do as he is told by those holding the $20 bill on a fishing line in front of him.
He sold his soul that is worse baggae than Trump has, by far !
I AM BEYOND TIRED OF NOT ELIGIBLE HALEY...
and the media keeps building her up....to eventually tear her down. Happens every time to their republican darling. DeSantis wouldn’t make it in the general. He has strong conservative policies but lacks personality.
