DeSantis gains support as Trump loses donor and attorney infighting revealed.
Hal Lambert, a prominent Republican donor and former backer of Donald Trump, has announced his support for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in the 2024 presidential election. Lambert, who founded an investment fund named after Trump's "Make America Great Again" campaign slogan, said he was impressed by DeSantis' conservative record and stance on key issues such as border security, energy independence, and school choice. He also criticized Trump's recent performance and claimed that DeSantis would provide a better contrast to President Biden in the debate stage. However, Lambert acknowledged that defeating Trump in the primary would be a battle and that his voter support in recent polls is overstated.
