Former President Donald Trump unloaded Thursday on polling showing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis beating him in a head-to-head matchup for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
"Great polling has just come out on me versus various others, including [President Joe] Biden, but I still have to put up with the same old 'stuff' from The Wall Street Journal, which has lost an incalculable amount of influence over the years, and Fox News, whose polls on me have been seriously WRONG from the day I came down the escalator in Trump Tower" to announce his first run, Trump said on his Truth Social platform.
DeSantis led Trump 52% to 38% in the Wall Street Journal survey, which was released Wednesday. Fox News reported on the Wall Street Journal poll and a USA Today/Suffolk University poll that showed DeSantis up 56% to 33% over Trump in a one-on-one test.
DeSantis, who is not expected to announce whether he will run until after Florida's legislative session in the spring or summer, has quickly emerged as the leading alternative to Trump among GOP primary voters. He won re-election last month by nearly 20 points over Democratic former Gov. Charlie Crist, and he is clearly the rival about whom Trump is most concerned.
"DeSantis is rising, and Trump is increasingly scared of being left for dead by the Republican Party," said Dan Eberhart, a GOP donor who is backing DeSantis. "Trump is not going to let DeSantis grab his throne without a fight. We are on the eve of nothing less than a civil war in the Republican Party."
Trump allies caution that primaries are more than a year away, noting that other polls show Trump in a much stronger position and that all of the surveys are snapshots in time.
"For every bad poll, there's a good poll," said a person close to Trump, who is the only candidate in the race for the time being.
A DeSantis adviser declined to comment for this story.
The hypothetical head-to-head matchups assume that Trump and DeSantis are the only candidates who get support from GOP primary voters. But there is a long list of Republican figures who are looking at potential bids, including former Vice President Mike Pence, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley.
