A top official for Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R-FL) PAC said the Florida governor faces an “uphill battle” in the 2024 GOP presidential race, adding, “Trump is the runaway front-runner.”
Steve Cortes, who once served as a campaign adviser to former President Donald Trump, admitted on a Twitter Spaces session Sunday night that DeSantis is not faring well in the key nominating states, Politico reported.“Right now in national polling, we are way behind, I’ll be the first to admit that,” said Cortes. “I believe in being blunt and honest. It’s an uphill battle, but clearly Donald Trump is the runaway front-runner.
The four early presidential primary states for the 2024 election are Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, and South Carolina, all of which see DeSantis trailing Trump by a considerable amount. “If we do not prevail — and I have every intent on winning, I didn’t sign up for this to come in second — but if we do not prevail, I will tell you this, we will make President Trump better for having this kind of primary,” he said.
