DeSantis Camp Faces ‘Another PR Disaster’ with Iowa Poll’s Release

When Donald Trump’s super PAC began a new $1 million ad campaign attacking Ron DeSantis in Iowa, the Florida governor’s presidential campaign was quick to declare it good news.

“Team Trump is now being forced to publicly admit that Ron DeSantis is climbing in Iowa,” the campaign told The New York Times late Friday.

On Monday, that talking point took a major hit with the release of the widely respected Iowa Poll, which showed DeSantis losing 3 percentage points in two months.
