When polled head-to-head with Trump, DeSantis does not fare much better—and still trails Trump significantly. In such a question, Trump maintains majority-level support at 59 percent and DeSantis only grows his numbers to 29 percent—meaning DeSantis in a head-to-head with Trump in his own state trails the former president by 30 percent.
I like DeSantis. But this isn’t his year. Never was.

Meatball will get bigger clown boots and make a comeback
I wonder how many Floridians are leaning Trump because they like DeSantis as gov.
Why is he still running if he can’t even win his home state? He’s beclowning himself.
I don't like DeSantis, and would never vote for him after showing who he really is, after he announced his run. He's proven to me that he's nothing more than a self-serving politician that will use the power of his office to protect his privacy, and help himself politically, and monetarily. I don't care what party a person is from. No Governor has the right to use their party's majority to give themselves advantages that prior Governor's didn't have, or didn't want.
At this point the only reason is he is being blackmailed by the Communist World Govt money machine.
My view is that most DeSantis supporters - the rank and file, not the donors - are Trump supporters. The Floridians who like him and the ones who support Trump are the same people. Had he understood that he would never have got into the race. His ego blinded him.
ROFL!! He probably couldn't read the pamphlets they were dropping to entice him to come out, and give up.
Because, based on his arrogance, he had the law changed so he didn't have to give up his job, and could continue to get a paycheck while running for President. He's not only enhancing himself politically, and monetarily, but he's a thief. Stealing taxpayer dollars for a government office he isn't physically sitting in.
IMHO it’s wise for DeSantis to run in 2024 as a springboard into 2028. If that’s DeSantis’s long game, he should have told Trump that’s what he’s doing and the two agreed not to denigrate each other.
Bingo.
“He’s not only enhancing himself politically, and monetarily...”
Well he may be enhancing himself monetarily, but he’s certainly not enhancing himself politically. Before this he was probably the leading candidate for 2028, now that is pretty much off the table for him.
So Vice-President Youngkin can resume beating Greasy like a rented mule like President Trump has done?
White Boots f'd up royally. 2036 at the earliest. Meatball would be better off running for some Grand Moff position on Musk's Mars empire LOFL.
IMO-—NIKKI HALEY is stealing dollars from donors for her campaign.
SHE IS NOT ELIGIBLE—and she knows it.
IMO—SHE IS COMMITTING FRAUD.
Ron is through in politics after his governor term is up. Hes really ticked off the FLA GOP. Without their support good luck running for the Senate later.
Trump continues to suffer from DeSantis Derangement Syndrome - is anyone going to tell them that he actually has to run against and beat Biden, not DeSantis?
Maybe after his Meghan Markle debate he can refocus on what matters.
She'll get a pass. Rinos aren't going to go after her, and I don't think Democrats consider her a threat, so they won't bother attacking her fraud, since they are the masters of it.
