Ron DeSantis argued that Trump mocking him relentlessly is actually good for his campaign, despite the fact that his campaign has been steadily tanking.
Rolling Stoneon Sunday. “A top-to-bottom makeover and real accountability may be the only thing that saves Ron DeSantis,” said one source.
DeSantis has largely denied he’s in trouble, calling the idea a false media narrative while brushing off attacks from Trump. He even argued on Sunday that the former president mocking him relentlessly is actually good for his campaign, despite the fact that his campaign has been steadily tanking amid the former president’s flurry of insults.
“When he hits me with the juvenile insults, I think that helps me,” he said during a campaign stop in New Hampshire. “I don’t think voters like that. I think they look at it, and they realize that’s not effective, and so I don’t think it’s effective, so I don’t mind it at all. I think it’s just a reminder why there are so many millions of voters who will never vote for him going forward.”
