Why the DeSantis Campaign Burn Rate Is Concerning

Jonathan Last lists the reasons:

1. He’s spending a large percentage of his total resources on goods that do not produce votes or impact polling.
2. He’s not on the air in Iowa where he must win in order to have any viability.
3. Donors won’t throw good money after bad when they see that he’s been spending their money not to beat Trump, but to live a lifestyle approximating their own.
4. On-the-make politicians who work hard to avoid regular people tend not to be good at winning elections.

He adds: “Anyway, the first red flag for donors on DeSantis should have been his physical and vocal presentation. The second should have been his desire to avoid people.”
