DeSantis discusses his trailing on Trump in Republican primary race
The polling from the last few weeks shows Trump far ahead of the Florida governor, with some data even showing the former president having twice the support of DeSantis. When asked if all this"doom and gloom" was impacting his presidential campaign, DeSantis responded with"not at all," adding that one could see"an effort to create these narratives" during an interview on Fox News's Media Buzz.
The Florida governor was also asked why the media would oppose his nomination rather than Trump's nomination, to which DeSantis said it is because he thinks the media"knows I can beat Biden, and beat him soundly." DeSantis also added that the media has seen his work in the state of Florida, and how the Republican Party has"beat the Left" on multiple issues, including illegal immigration and education.
"We've done all these great things, and now Florida, even CNBC is acknowledging we’re the top economy of all 50 states, and so I think they see me as somebody who will actually enact some of these bold things as president," said DeSantis."Of course, they don’t want that. The corporate press wants the status quo."
The Florida governor also said that his campaign knew his coverage in the media and high polling numbers after the 2022 midterm elections was a"sugar high." His statement came after he was asked about the momentum he had prior to Trump's indictment earlier this year.Welcome back to reality! 📉 pic.twitter.
