    Really? I kept seeing him get chewed on in news articles, but felt like he’d have instantly stolen second place from Desantis purely from mirroring Trump, if he were white and not named Ramaswamy. Haley too felt like she’d have been a standout, were she not a woman look for support from the GOP. Kept throwing me for a loop seeing the articles saying Desantis “won” the debate. It’ll be interesting to see what happens with the next primary debate.

    The aggregated polling at 538 still has Ramaswamy in third place at 7% and Haley right behind him at 5.5%, but given that Desantis has dropped all the way down to 14.2%, I wouldn’t be surprised if one or both of them pushed him out. Trump is still sitting at 55.3%, but he’s also skipping the next debate, so hopefully that can fade. Plus, you know, all the criminal lawsuits.
