When asked by Fox News host Will Cain about his struggling poll performance with Republican voters, the Florida Governor pivoted to boasting about his fundraising haul, mostly provided by corporate donors including many linked to globalist ideology, as questionable election practices.
Fox’s Cain predictably soft-balled DeSantis, telling him how much he likes him, before asking: “Why is it in your estimation the numbers have not reflected your success in Florida?”
DeSantis’s non-answer was more of an answer than you might first think.
“Did you just see the news today about the record fundraising haul we’ve had? Nobody’s been able to match that in the history of modern presidential politics,” DeSantis said. “So we’ve got a huge amount of support to be able to take the case to the people.”
In other words: cash is more important than sentiment amongst likely Republican voters.
DeSantis’s cash haul has come mostly from a transfer of cash from his Florida campaign, as well as globalist donors such as Ken Griffin.

Will Cain asked Rod why he isn’t connecting well with the voters. Rod avoids the questions & then brings up the amount of money he raised from globalist donors.
He also sounded like he wanted to cry. Rod… pic.twitter.com/wx92YYWION
