Republicans. i want to point out quickly, if -- if you look at -- definitely 10% than it was in 2018, specifically among latino men. and an 11 point bump for republicans. >> if i could, the concern, quickly, is that this concern is not just happening broadly across the, map its who it is with. its not just cuban americans in south florida, demographic and over. well its with puerto ricans, its with colombians, its with central americans. and its not just for candidates with like ron desantis, is...

Hurt himself very badly. i think he would be making a mistake and i dont think the base would like it. i dont think it would be good for the party. i would tell you things about him that would be very unflattering, a clear threat here. i will note that for months behind closed doors, trump has told close advisers that he feels hes upset with ron desantis. -- back in 2018, which trump believes is the reason he became the florida governor in the first place. so, all of this really coming down to t...

Santas has decided to write it off. and, say engagement is not even worth it. i do think there is an element of republican base that likes that about desantis more than a like about trumps craving of the attention. >> interesting, desantis doesnt even talk to mainstream media most of the time, there are now enough other channels, right-wing channels or just stand up and walk away. it is a different model. when trump came along with a different model, in 2016, up until then the way he did it is b...

Success -- trump endorsed him in a primary. and that is one of the reasons he is now the governor. second of all, a lot of people -- we watch this in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 -- they expected someone else to take out donald trump for him. -- of -- off. donald trump remains the most powerful, popular person in the republican party. if governor desantis wants to be the next president, hes going to have to be willing to throw a punch. >> he is. and heres the other thing. they are convinced that...
