Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' super PAC has canceled over $2 million in ad buys in Iowa and New Hampshire, signaling potential trouble for his campaign. The move comes amidst staff departures and a series of setbacks for the campaign. Political commentators are now questioning the viability of DeSantis' candidacy.
According to Peter Wehner, a former senior adviser for Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George W. Bush, DeSantis' campaign has been in a downward spiral for months. Wehner believes that DeSantis is not a talented candidate and has been unable to effectively transition from being a successful governor to a national contender. With his campaign faltering, Wehner states that DeSantis is unlikely to secure the nomination.
