Fewer than 10 staffers were let go Thursday, according to a person familiar with the campaign.

Fewer than 10 staffers were let go by the Florida governor’s campaign Thursday, according to a person familiar with the internal deliberations and granted anonymity to describe them. Each of the aides was involved in event planning, and some of them may soon wind up at an allied outside group. Never Back Down, the pro-DeSantis super PAC, has received resumes from staffers who’ve been let go, a person familiar with the group said.


His cash has run out and he needs to lose staff. It would be cheaper for him tp just fold the whole campaign.

He could sell some collectible cards maybe ?

Trump would need to come out as gay for Desantis to stand a chance.. It seems like a terrible waste of money.

He's fading even faster than I expected.

People don't like creepy controlling Deep Swamp bullies with no sense of humor.

 

[MinTrut]

I cant see him attracting anyone outside his crazy right wing fringe.

Correct.

He's all the rage amongst the RW ragers, but that's about it.

His head got big inside that echo chamber, but reality is rushing in.

 

[bodecea]

There is no crazy rightwing fringe. That is that is the real normal. At least to push for. Tommy, utopia does not exist. Advances are incremental. What has happened over recent decades is revolutionary but needs a pipeline of massive resources to sustain. Within this normal is a lot of flaws. Imperfections. And that is jumped on from people who do not agree. Let Joe start with giving renters huge checks to counter rent increases. Since Progs are giving money to their privileged groups.

"There is no crazy rightwing fringe"................

I will find some links later. It is more important than that. Think about it for a minute.

Wealth is not abundant to the peasants. The peasant class though has different classes. The upper side may have guaranteed benefits over those not so fortunate who may live in the same environment.

There is something sinister about him. Probably why he needs his own army.

It looks pretty good to me.

“President Xi of China, and I, are working together to give massive Chinese phone company, ZTE, a way to get back into business, fast,” Trump announced on Twitter Sunday morning. “Too many jobs in China lost. Commerce Department has been instructed to get it done!”

Trump did not mention in that tweet or its follow-ups that on Thursday, the developer of a theme park resort outside of Jakarta had signed a deal to receive as much as $500 million in Chinese government loans, as well as another $500 million from Chinese banks, according to Agence France-Presse.

Trump’s family business, the Trump Organization, has a deal to license the Trump name to the resort, which includes a golf course and hotels.

All the more reason for him to skip the debates. The MAGA base is firmly behind him.

I figured some time ago that DeSantis was shaping up to be this year's Jeb Bush. Florida governor with lots of hype and lots of pre-cycle cash flow...and poll numbers with a dead cat-bounce.

Chris Christie has no chance to beat Trump but he is probably the only one who understands how to at least have any possible shot at beating him, and that is you have to pull down your pants and show the audience the size of your balls. Sorry - I know that's a really bad visual in Christie's case, but that's the reality.

Nobody else in the field has any nads at all.

1. You didn't prove that Trump got $1b from China. (like the Biden Crime Family's money laundering shell companies)
2. Either the whistleblower has evidence or he doesn't.

So why isn't Trump suing, he loves filing court cases?

1. You lied when you said Trump got $1b from the Chinese. Trump has a new resort in Indonesia, connected to an Indonesian Theme Park. You did NOT prove that Trump got any Chinese money. Trump removed the sanctions to help US farmers. From your article:
"The Wall Street Journal reported Monday that in exchange for the removal of sanctions on ZTE, China plans to drop tariffs on multiple US agricultural products that were leveled in response to those initial steel and aluminum tariffs."

2. Its an INDONESIAN Theme Park with a Trump resort. There is no indication that Trump's planned resort got any of the Chinese money.From the article:
"Within three days of the Chinese government agreeing to provide $500 million in loans to an Indonesian theme park that the Trump Organization has a deal to license President Donald Trump's name to, the president stunningly ordered sanctions be rescinded against a major Chinese telecom company."

He's fallen and he can't get up.

Burning thorough money. Just like Jeb, his backer, did in 2016.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' campaign for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination is burning through cash, campaign finance documents reveal, forcing his team to lay off staffers.

DeSantis initially amassed an impressive $20 million in donations during the first six weeks of his campaign. But The New York Times reports that the campaign has already spent about $8 million of that — leaving the team with just $9 million left to spend on the primary. The remaining $3 million can only be spent in the general election in the event DeSantis wins the Republican nomination, according to the Times.

While DeSantis can continue raising money, $14 million of that total came from large donors who gave the maximum legal amount to his campaign and can't donate again, NBC News reports. And with small donations proving to be a challenge for several Republican candidates, according to NBC News, future fundraising efforts may not be as fruitful for DeSantis.

The Times called DeSantis' finances and team downsizing an "ominous" sign for his chances in the Republican primary, especially as he trails candidates like former President Donald Trump in public polls.

With only a little more than half his funds left, DeSantis' campaign laid off several employees. While the Times reports the exact number is unknown, one staffer told the outlet it was fewer than 10 people. Payroll is one of the campaign's largest expenses, coming in at $1 million to pay about 90 staffers.
