Ron DeSantis faces political peril as campaign strategy shifts

TL;DR Summary
Former Obama adviser David Axelrod believes Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is in the most jeopardy among GOP candidates ahead of the first Republican presidential debate. Axelrod suggests that DeSantis, who was seen as Trump's main challenger, could lose his second-place status during the debate, giving other candidates an opportunity to position themselves as the best alternative to Trump. DeSantis has experienced falling poll numbers and donor defections since entering the campaign trail, despite efforts to reboot his presidential bid.
