DeSantis Campaign Nearing End? Staff Hints at Possible Conclusion for 2024 Hopeful.
Is the DeSantis Campaign Over? Staff Confirms Clue That Could Mean End is Near for 2024 Hopeful
Ron DeSantis is making some major changes to his campaign staff. But does this mean the end of his presidential bid? That’s the question being asked by numerous media outlets, including ABC, Associated Press, The Guardian, The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, NBC, Yahoo, Politico, HuffPost, and Rolling Stone. They’re all keeping a close eye on DeSantis, wondering if his campaign is in trouble.
Even Fox News has joined in the speculation. But who knows what they’re really about these days?
Now, cutting 10 people from a campaign staff 16 months before a general election doesn’t necessarily indicate a strategic move. It’s more likely a financial decision.
So what’s really happening with the DeSantis campaign? Is it losing momentum?
CNN’s Jake Tapper recently sat down with DeSantis to discuss these concerns. Tapper noted that some supporters are disappointed with the campaign’s lackluster polling numbers. He suggested that DeSantis may have initially gained popularity by being seen as a more electable conservative, similar to Trump. However, as he has taken more extreme positions on divisive social issues, some Republican voters may see him as less electable.
DeSantis quickly dismissed this idea, pointing to his success in Florida. He highlighted his focus on parents’ rights, school choice, and removing indoctrination from schools. He also emphasized his commitment to addressing bread and butter issues like crime, inflation, and the economy, noting that Florida’s economy is ranked number one in the nation.
DeSantis attributed his slip in the polls to the extensive media coverage he received after his re-election as governor. He explained that he was required to focus on his duties as governor, which took away from his campaign efforts. Despite the criticism, DeSantis remains confident in his chances of defeating former President Donald Trump.

DeSantis acknowledged that his campaign is focused on building an organization and grassroots support in key states like Iowa and New Hampshire. He dismissed critics who are trying to undermine his campaign, pointing out that they have been doubting him since he became governor. He also highlighted his successful fundraising efforts, surpassing both Biden and Trump in the second quarter.
So, while the media may be speculating about the end of the DeSantis campaign, he remains confident in his chances of winning. Only time will tell if he can overcome the challenges and come out on top.
Stay tuned.
