He should, but he probably won’t. Trump has the nomination all wrapped up. But DeSantis (and Haley) might well hang on, ghoulishly hoping something bad happens to Trump.
It’s time to rally ‘round the flag, boys (and girls).

Republican presidential hopeful Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of The Union” that his voters were “very motivated.”
Therefore, he will do well in Monday’s Iowa Caucuses, he said.
Anchor Jake Tapper said, “So the final Des Moines Register poll, considered the gold standard, shows you in third place, trailing Nikki Haley, more than 30 points behind Donald Trump. Your campaign is focused so much attention and millions of dollars into Iowa. You’ve visited 99 counties and spent most of your time as a candidate there. Last month, you said you were going to win in Iowa. What happens if you finish third? Is that the end of your campaign?”
DeSantis said, “We’re going to do well on Monday. Our voters are very motivated. I think it is very hard to poll an Iowa caucus. The Des Moines Registers poll, which the ’16 poll was not accurate but, especially one in negative 20 degrees. So these are folks that are very motivated. We have spent a lot of time in Iowa because we’ve gone door-to-door, getting people to commit to caucus to us. And we have a huge number of people that have committed to caucus, and we expect that these are the people that turn out. So there is a lot of excitement on the ground. We’re in this for the long haul.

I’ll predict it right now. DeSantis will not do well in Iowa. He’ll have to drop out on Tuesday.
No wonder he went on CNN fake news to say it
Funny, just a few short months ago Tapper was calling Ron a racist homophobe.
So are Trump’s pal, so are Trumps!
He should, but he probably won’t. Trump has the nomination all wrapped up. But DeSantis (and Haley) might well hang on, ghoulishly hoping something bad happens to Trump.
It’s time to rally ‘round the flag, boys (and girls).
All 20 of his supporters are very motivated
Absolutely delusional. He needs to check into a mental facility. What a douche.
What was done to President Trump (what is still happening too him and his family) marks a watershed moment in US history and US politics.
Any Conservative who disagrees with that, who ignores what was done and what’s being done, CANNOT be considered for public office in this country
I’d prefer him in 2nd as oppose to Birbrain at this point. What a total collapse if these numbers are true.
If DeSantis hadn’t listened to Karl Rove and the Bushies, and stayed out of the race, he’d have been the perfect Vice-President for DJT.
Plus, he’d have been the odds-on favorite for 2028.
The neo-cons strike, yet again.
This is amazing.
While in Iowa, a man gave Ron DeSantis a PARTICIPATION TROPHY.
It’s time for Ron to DROP OUT and end his FAILURE of a campaign.

Right. What those fools don’t realize is this: The methods the Democrats are using to try to destroy Trump can (and will) be used against them too.
It’s not JFK’s Democrat party anymore. It’s the party of Obama and AOC. They mean to take power permanently. And crush all opposition. Permanently.
“our voters are very motivated.”
Both of them.
The wifey is pretty. The Gov is a meatball.

DeSantis is just going through the motions at this point. He’s gotta know it’s over for him. Now it’s just a question of finding a way to bow out gracefully.
Don’t worry about DeSantis. He’s still spewing crap about Trump daily, and just did again a little while ago about Trump’s age. Check Breitbart Politics. Screw DeSantis. He deserves to be completely humiliated in Iowa. It will be all over by New Hampshire anyway.
