Trump Bashes DeSantis

Former President Donald Trump attacked Ron DeSantis at a rally in Las Vegas, criticizing his personality and claiming responsibility for DeSantis' success on the national stage. Trump repeated his false claims about electoral fraud in the 2020 election. DeSantis, the governor of Florida, has struggled to gain traction in the presidential campaign and is currently trailing Trump by a significant margin in most polls. Trump criticized DeSantis for supporting cuts to social security and highlighted his lack of personality. DeSantis has been seen as lacking campaigning skills and has blamed the "corporate media" for his difficulties. Trump dominates the primary with over 50% support despite facing numerous criminal indictments. Trials are scheduled for various charges, including hush money payments and the retention of classified records. Trump pleaded not guilty to all charges. Trump's false claims about the election were echoed by some attendees at the rally who also dismissed the indictments against him.
