The Ron DeSantis marketing campaign accused the media of election interference for calling the Iowa caucus for Trump early.

DeSantis Communications Director Andrew Romeo tweeted:

Completely outrageous that the media would take part in election interference by calling the race earlier than tens of 1000’s of Iowans even had an opportunity to vote. The media is within the tank for Trump and that is essentially the most egregious instance but.

It’s humorous that Trump’s personal election interference phrase could be utilized by the DeSantis marketing campaign to taint Trump’s victory.

The DeSantis marketing campaign moved itself to Iowa and put every part on the road within the caucus. If DeSantis finishes third, seeing a path ahead for his marketing campaign is tough. If he finishes second, it may not matter as a result of Nikki Haley is ready up in New Hampshire to do very properly.

By claiming that the election was referred to as too quickly, DeSantis does have a built-in excuse for his defeat, as his group can at all times marvel what would have occurred if the race had not been referred to as so quickly. The fact is that the outcomes are lining up with the polling within the state.

If Ron DeSantis stays within the major past Iowa, issues might get very ugly between the DeSantis and Trump campaigns.
