15-point lead. stayed that way november, december, generally, and then in march the democratic district attorney in the ark alvin bragg indicted trump on a bunch of felonies republicans thought the case was very weak and very politically motivated. trumps a lead back up to about 30 points. that is where it is right now. the only real change we have seen is the entrance of a number of lesser candidates in the race seem to have taken a little bit of desantis support away while it has not affected trump at a all. what you think desantis has to do to get back some of the momentum? over election victory has tapered off a little bit. what can he do to reassert himself and start chipping away? the race enters a new phase on august 23 in milwaukee with fox news debate. whether or not donald trump is
