DeSantis Campaign in Turmoil: Staff Firings and Cash Crunch

TL;DR Summary
Ron DeSantis has fired around a dozen campaign staffers as his presidential campaign struggles to make headway against Donald Trump. More job cuts are expected in the coming weeks as the campaign tries to reduce costs. The decision to let go of mid-level staffers was made after the campaign realized it had hired too many people too early, despite raising $20 million in just six weeks. Campaign manager Generra Peck is reportedly under scrutiny. DeSantis has failed to significantly narrow Trump's lead, and donors have expressed disappointment in his performance. The campaign is now focusing on early-voting states like Iowa to win over Trump supporters.
