Trump has had a strong showing the last few months, starting with being the only Presidential candidate to make a trip to East Palestine, Ohio. Trump continued to build momentum by gaining major endorsements and setting clear policy objectives, including ending the War in Ukraine in 24 hours.
DeSantis has flopped since mid-March due to his awkward moments with voters and the fact that he has provided no clear policy goals. For example, DeSantis gave Tucker Carlson with one answer on his stance on Ukraine but provided Piers Morgan a different one. GOP voters are also waking up to the fact that Trump’s endorsement of DeSantis in 2018 is the only reason DeSantis is Florida’s Governor today.
