CNBC said, “Trump extends lead over DeSantis in new poll of possible GOP primary field.” As usual, the real story was otherwise. While the Quinnipiac poll showed a 14-point lead instead of 6 in its last poll, that is below the Real Clear Politics average of 15.9.

The 30-point leads Trump enjoyed last summer are largely gone. 2 of the 7 most recent polls are in the 30s, but one poll gives DeSantis his first lead — of 2 points.

Follow the pols not the polls to see how things are going. Trump is calling DeSantis names and now his supporters are suing the governor. Florida law forbids DeSantis from remaining governor if he seeks another office midterm.
