Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been 'brutally honest' about his tepid polling, said donors who attended his campaign fundraisers this week and heard questions about his strategy for overtaking former President Donald Trump.
in late June showed Trump with a 28-point lead on DeSantis, with 47% of registered state voters picking him and only 19% picking DeSantis.
"When you see the polls bump up for Trump after he's indicted, that's not a rejection of [DeSantis], that's a sign of people being very unhappy with how the Democratic Party conducts itself when it's in power," this attendee added. about the polls:"DeSanctimonious Polls are getting worse & worse as the public gets to know him. The Democrats would have a field day with Ron. He's cold as ICE, and only hurting the Republican Party.
"It should come as no surprise that our campaign will focus relentlessly on the early states while also building out an infrastructure to go the distance — and thanks to our generous supporters, we have the resources to do it all," DeSantis campaign spokesperson Andrew Romeo said in response to a question about the memo.
Other donors who attended DeSantis campaign fundraisers seemed unworried about his distant second place in polling. It's still early, they said.
