DeSantis' campaign is "brutally honest" about trailing Trump in presidential race, donors say

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been "brutally honest" about his tepid polling, said donors who attended his campaign fundraisers this week and heard questions about his strategy for overtaking former President Donald Trump. 

They said he remains confident about the campaign strategy and his path to the White House, despite that in both national and most state polls, DeSantis has trailed Trump by double digits.
