DeSantis and Trump Campaigns Rake in Millions in Record-Breaking Fundraising

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' campaign has raised $20 million in the first six weeks of his Republican presidential primary campaign, positioning him as a top rival to former President Donald Trump. The fundraising figures are touted as the largest first-quarter filing from any non-incumbent Republican candidate in over a decade. Additionally, a super PAC affiliated with DeSantis, Never Back Down, has raised $130 million since its launch in early March. Despite recent concerns about DeSantis' public demeanor and interactions with local groups, his campaign remains confident and sees positive momentum ahead of primary debates and early contests.
