But for Team Trump, one thing was abundantly clear.<\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1663871513696-art-1\" style=\"min-width: 320px; min-height: 50px;  text-align: center;\">  \t<script>  \t\tgoogletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1663871513696-art-1'); });  \t<\/script>  <\/div>\n<div class=\"ad-slot__ad-label\">Advertisement<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201c[Ron DeSantis] is not ready for primetime,\u201d Liz Harrington, Trump campaign spokeswoman. \u201cWho wants an artificial knockoff version when you have the real thing?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>DeSantis\u2019s announcement encountered a rocky start. The initial Twitter Space, hosted on Musk\u2019s official account, could not handle the surge of viewers. This caused listeners to get booted out of the session at random times. The audio repeatedly cut out in the first session as well. Harrington explained there was a clear contrast between Trump\u2019s announcement speech in 2016 compared to DeSantis\u2019.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cI think it\u2019s a level of seriousness,\u201d said Harrington.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cIf you go back and watch [President Trump\u2019s 2016 launch] speech, he\u2019s the same person with real substantive issues that he delivered on in his historic first term. He\u2019s never wavered. He\u2019s never changed. And it\u2019s so important, because it\u2019s real. It\u2019s something that he actually believes in. And it goes a long way. Things go well when you\u2019re actually speaking from the heart, you\u2019re being true to what you actually believe in. You cannot say the same thing for [DeSantis\u2019] launch.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Harrington says that while the DeSantis camp believed they were being innovative, they were actually copying Trump\u2019s initial blueprint to success in politics.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cWho actually used Twitter to change electoral politics,\u201d said Harrington. \u201cThat was President Trump. So there\u2019s no groundbreaking there.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>During his announcement, DeSantis highlighted his ongoing battle with Disney, his handling to the COVID-19 pandemic, his fight against woke ideologies and more. Harrington argued that DeSantis did not sound authentic when putting forth his pitch to voters.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cIt was scripted,\u201d explained Harrington. \u201cIt was artificial, and it\u2019s not real. And you couldn\u2019t get a more contrast to President Trump who is real, but more importantly, delivers real results, not just for headlines, not just able to memorize anti woke talking points.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>She says that Trump is the only candidate to consistently release forward-thinking policy videos since the onset of the primary race.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cI hate this idea that [DeSantis\u2019 announcement] was a policy-driven substantive launch,\u201d Harrington continued. \u201cPresident Trump has already put forward all of these substantive ideas. He\u2019s been doing it for years. He\u2019s totally transformed the Republican party to America First with innovative ideas on every issue when it comes from trade to the economy to energy independence and dominance to securing our border. President Trump revolutionized all of these things and got real results with actual common sense.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Real Clear Politics polling average shows Trump up by more than 30 points nationally on the Florida governor. Harrington says she does not see DeSantis\u2019 prospects improving the longer he stays in the race after seeing how his team handled his campaign launch.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cIt reveals that it\u2019s all people behind the scenes that are paid a lot of money, who think they\u2019re geniuses in the political consulting world,\u201d Harrington said. \u201cAnd yet when it comes to reality and real results, it\u2019s a disaster. It\u2019s a train wreck.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>DeSantis is set to hold a May 30th kickoff event in Iowa. It will jumpstart a four-day trip the Hawkeye state, New Hampshire, and South Carolina.<\/p>\n<p>Stay informed! Receive breaking news blasts directly to your inbox for free.
