DeSantis fires some campaign staffers after latest fundraising report

Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis has fired some of his campaign staff after spending approximately 40% of his second-quarter donations. DeSantis raised less than half of former President Donald Trump's haul between April and June, while President Biden raked in more than the two Republicans combined. CBS News senior White House and political correspondent Ed O'Keefe and CBS News political reporter Zak Hudak have the latest on the race.

The bloke who can't talk about anything but woke, such a dope

[slicktheslickster]

He's unlikable, he's swarthy, he's menacing...he has no shot.

[mistery-ed]

It's not his staffs fault he's cringe.

99% of bankruptcies are caused by bad management not bad workers

Same can be said for political campaigns ...

I can't control my own state but let me control the country.

Ron doesn’t have a clue what he’s doing. Clearly can’t recognize who to surround himself with.

[macmcleod]

Let's hope it's enough to end his reign as governor. He's destroying Florida tourism and farming .

[Daniel]

Ron's cooked, no shot at winning the presidency, go back to Florida.

[CA-tkyn]

So much for his, "never back down", motto!!!!

👏😊… HooRAY for Joe Biden! And now, Dems, let’s help him finish the job on Infrastructure and protecting our rights, VOTE BLUE so he’ll have more than a hair-thin majority next time! 💙🇺🇸💙💪😊

It is always a bad sign when a candidate starts to fire staff. It usually means that donations aren't coming in and they want to make it look like it was a choice to "fire" staff instead of not being able to afford having thm around.

The NAACP is sueing DeSantis for racism and advises Blacks not to travel to Florida while he is governor....

[villianaire]

DeSantis should fire himself. He's ruining his chances more than anyone else.

[robby]

The real question is when is he coming out of that closet???

[ssmith]

It's not the campaign staff...it's the candidate.

[gaberoyalll]

No one will ever fire as many people as Donald Trump😂😂😂😂

[DriftVerse-]

I decided Ron wasn't the right person for me after I saw him deliberately wipe his dirty snot on someone else's shirt.

...if DeSantis had just waited a few more years for the next election cycle he would have been a shoe in for front runner. Instead, THIS is what he's givin' us, THIS is why he felt forced to run early, ...really... THIS?! Honestly, at this point, he deserves any failures he gets. Smh

[-jovoc]

Poor DeSantis, his campaign is falling horribly and Florida gets worse by the day.
