Jason Miller, senior adviser to former President Donald Trump, told Newsmax on Monday that Wednesday's Republican presidential primary debate will "spotlight" the failures of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' campaign.
"I think what this is really going to put the spotlight on this week is the fact that this DeSantis reboot 4.0 is not going so well," Miller said on "Newsline." "We see the CBS national numbers, Trump leading [DeSantis] 62-16, the Iowa numbers out this morning have President Trump leading [DeSantis] 42-19.
"And DeSantis takes his first opportunity after this big reboot to attack Trump voters with this whole 'listless vessels' comment, and if he's going to be channeling [2016 Democratic presidential nominee] Hillary Clinton, I don't know. Maybe he takes another stab at following the debate memo his super PAC did."
Miller also commented on Trump's recent announcement that he will not attend any of the GOP primary debates.
Miller said voters should take Trump's "posting on Truth Social at face-value," adding that the former president "said he's not doing the debates and so, until he says something differently, I would assume he's not going to be participating."
