A reputable Twitter/X account posted a poll with the link to the source.
This poll shows Florida’s Republican Governor Ron DeSantis predictably losing to former President Donald Trump in Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina.
What people may not have predicted, is DeSantis, who thought he had a chance at beating Trump while all but being guaranteed second place, is losing two former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley in two of the three states.
This hurts really bad for DeSantis because he is not only losing with the Trump/MAGA base, but he is now losing with the pro-war RINO base as well.

Many pro-Trump grifters jumped ship to DeSantis for a quick easy buck. Surely they’ll be begging Donald Trump and his supporters to let them back into the fold and be looking for new jobs within a matter of weeks.
A Donald Trump-affiliated X account excoriated DeSantis today:
“Buckle up, Ron. It’s going to get a lot worse.”
22 days to go, and Ron has gone totally AWOL. It’s been more than two weeks since Ron has been seen in Iowa, while President Trump has been pounding the pavement across the Hawkeye State.

As President Trump visited Iowa yesterday, it’s important not to forget that Ron supported killing a federal mandate that is widely supported by the ethanol industry, but now all of the sudden is masquerading as a friend to Iowa ethanol producers. pic.twitter.com/RjtY41kHSk

As a congressman, DeSanctus voted to raise the eligibility age to 70 to receive full Social Security benefits—in 2013, in 2014, and in 2015. pic.twitter.com/IChRk7Ut9o

On DeSanctus’ first day in Congress, he called “to restructure some of these entitlements,” such as Social Security.
In Congress, DeSanctimonious voted twice to cut Medicare benefits in 2015 and 2017. pic.twitter.com/bDVBoFXOcY

The final tweet/X in the thread read:
“Ron’s poor attempt to cosplay as MAGA has been totally exposed and that’s why voters have rejected Ron at every turn. The more that DC insiders, Never Trumpers, mainstream media, and the crooked grifter-consultant class have pushed Ron, the lower he has sunk in the polls.”
Clearly, DeSantis and his team of misfits completely misunderstood and underestimated the loyalty of the Trump base, or wanted to make a quick buck off a few RINO suckers, or some combination thereof.
