In a surprising admission, CNN’s top political analyst, David Chalian, was forced to acknowledge that former President Donald Trump is gaining strength in the race for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
“Our brand new numbers in this poll conducted by SSRS among Republican and Republican-leaning voters show that you have Donald Trump at 52 percent, majority support,” said Chalian. “Ron DeSantis is next in line here, way back at 18 percent. Everyone else is in single digits. This is a one-man race.”
The CNN analyst highlighted the significant movement in Trump’s favor since June. “Donald Trump is getting stronger as a front-runner. He is up five percentage points compared to where he was in June,” he noted.
In contrast, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who has been considered a strong contender for the 2024 Republican nomination, appears to be losing ground. “Look at Ron DeSantis. He is slipping. He’s down eight percentage points from where he was in June,” Chalian said.
