The deadline to report March fundraising totals to Florida’s Secretary of State isn’t until Monday, but it’s already clear that the governor – through his reelection campaign and Friends of Ron DeSantis, his political committee – has already hauled in over $100 million so far in the 2022 cycle.

Longtime Republican fundraiser and lobbyist Rollo Tamassi told Fox News that there’s plenty of interest in DeSantis among the GOP money class.”

“DeSantis continues to be a top draw with the high-end dollar market. The trick will be to translate an expected November win into a monopoly,” fundraiser he said.

Tamassi, who raised cash for Trump in 2016 and 2020, noted that “any tier 1 presidential candidate must be able to demonstrate a robust fundraising capability with big donors and even more so now, small donors. We know DeSantis has the capability.”

Why is DeSantis this popular? He doesn’t back down to the Left. “I am standing my ground. I’m not backing down,” DeSantis said at a major meeting of Republican leaders. “We’ve done an awful lot in the state of Florida. We have a lot more to do, and I have only begun to fight.”

In related news, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo infers that he may run even if Trump runs.

“The Pompeos have always used the simple fact of do you believe this is the moment where you think you can best serve America, this is the place you can have the most impact. That will be how we make our decision in the end.”
