Trump Adviser Jason Miller Says Debate Viewers Witnessed ‘the Death of Ron DeSantis’s Campaign’
Jason Miller, advisor to former President Donald Trump, says viewers witnessed “the death of Ron DeSantis’s campaign” during Wednesday’s GOP debate.
Miller added that businessman Vivek Ramaswamy “leapfrogged” over the Florida governor.
“We saw the death of Ron DeSantis’s campaign tonight as Vivek Ramaswamy leapfrogged him into second place,” Miller said during an interview with NBC’s Meet the Press. “DeSantis, it didn’t do good enough for him to tread water. He had to have a breakout moment, and Ramaswamy completely outshone him.”
DeSantis has consistently been in second place ahead of Ramaswamy throughout the primary season, but the latest Emerson College poll has the two tied with ten percent support each. The latest numbers show a massive drop in support for the governor from the 21 percent he had in June.
