"DeSantis' Presidential Hopes Dim as GOP Struggles Mount"

Ron DeSantis's presidential campaign is facing turmoil as internal disputes within his team become public, leading to the resignation of the chairman and CEO of his super PAC. As Republicans seek an alternative to Donald Trump, the influential Charles Koch network has endorsed Nikki Haley, further complicating DeSantis's bid. Some senior campaign aides are pessimistic about their chances, while DeSantis's struggles as a candidate and his strategy of appealing to Trump supporters have drawn attention. Despite the challenges, DeSantis's team remains optimistic and is focusing on Iowa, where he has high-profile surrogates and is attempting to peel away Trump supporters.

Ron DeSantis's presidential bid, has resigned amid internal disputes and the creation of a new outside group supporting DeSantis.

Allies of DeSantis have raised concerns about the negative ads aired by Never Back Down and its close connection to the candidate. Jankowski's resignation comes after tensions flared at a recent strategy meeting, and concerns were raised about the handling of a $1 million transfer to a new entity for attacking DeSantis's rival, Nikki Haley.
