Following a publicized campaign reboot, RonDeSantis has begun to find some success in breaking through a media environment dominated by Donald Trump's legal troubles by taking on a high profile surrogate of JoeBiden's 2024 campaign: GavinNewsom.
On Wednesday, DeSantis accepted a request to debate Gov. Gavin Newsom , who has been a vocal critic of his administration in Florida. The California governor first challenged DeSantis to the face off last year.The move successfully generated non-Trump related headlines, as did a recent back and forth with Vice President Kamala Harris over Florida's black history education standards. DeSantis challenged Harris to a debate as well, but she refused.
The Washington Examiner understands that DeSantis intends to take every opportunity that comes his way to present to the country what he believes the ultimate choice to be in 2024: decline or revival. This may come in the form of confronting prominent Biden adjacent figures such as Harris and Newsom.
"I think right now DeSantis is struggling and scrambling to get some air. So to do something like this could help at least provide him some headlines that get away from Trump, which is what he desperately needs," said pollster Doug Usher. As to why Newsom is game for the debate and has been for months, the California governor told supporters in an email from his PAC Campaign for Democracy that he challenged DeSantis because"he is a total fraud and the world needs to see it."
