MIAMI — The third Republican primary debate is taking place in the shadow of this week's off-year elections, a reminder of what is at stake for the GOP if the party keeps underperforming with voters.
"DeSantis has been greatly improved on the debate stage in Milwaukee and Simi Valley but failed to gain any polling traction and connection with disaffected Trump voters," the co-author of Debating The Donald said. Haley's campaign claims DeSantis has been untruthful about his energy and foreign policies, specifically regarding Haley's position on refugees and his stance on Chinese foreign investment in Florida.
Meanwhile, Trump's campaign has reveled in Haley's criticism as the former president and his team remain fixated on DeSantis because the pair share more voters. "She is +9 against Biden in the New York Times-Siena College poll of battleground states, while Trump is +3," her staff added."To beat Biden and save America, the data is conclusive: Trump is a loser, DeSantis is a loser, Haley is a winner."
The Trump campaign disagreed with their argument and is set to counterprogram the debate with a rally in nearby Hialeah.
