Donald Trump took jabs at potential presidential candidates. As Trump teased that he may run for re-election, Ron DeSantis and Glen Youngkin stepped up to the plate.
The Save America political action committee sent a notice on Wednesday with a headline and link to a story about a new poll.
In the wake of the FBI's search of the former president's Mar-a-Lago estate, the August 10 poll showed that Trump gained a 10-point boost over Florida's Ron DeSantis.
In a Tuesday post on his Truth Social platform, Trump shared a picture of a poll that showed him with a big lead over Youngkin.
Trump said he helped him get elected. The people know that the press didn't acknowledge.
Some people think that both Youngkin and DeSantis could challenge Trump for the GOP nomination in the year 2024.
Jim Jordan, a long-time ally of Trump, said on Tuesday that the president is the right candidate for the job.
The scandals surrounding Trump have strengthened his support among his base in the Republican party.
GOP operatives told Insider that challengers within Trump's party could try to peel away support by arguing that he isn't electable in a general election, or that he supports the vaccine.
Some Republicans tried to distance themselves from Trump's legal problems. A federal judge's decision to side with Trump's legal team and appoint a special master to review documents in the case would delay the investigation.
