| 0:00.0 | Hey, this is David Pakman inviting you to enjoy a classic episode of the David Pakman show today. |
| 0:05.7 | We will return with new shows before you know it. |
| 0:24.5 | We start today with what increasingly seems like the inevitability |
| 0:29.5 | of Donald Trump winning the Republican primary. |
| 0:32.4 | We're going to go through some of the stories that have been told about the path that Vivek |
| 0:37.4 | Ramaswami has to the nomination or the path that Ron DeSantis has to the nomination. |
| 0:42.8 | And I think in looking at the numbers, you will come to the conclusion I have come to, |
| 0:47.6 | which is that none of those storylines really seem to connect to reality in any kind of |
| 0:52.4 | serious way. First and foremost, the DeSantis campaign is rapidly collapsing. In fact, |

| 1:31.3 | DeSantis is talking to like 15 people. And I know some will write to me and say, David, |
| 1:35.6 | early in the campaign, sometimes you only talk to 15 people or whatever the case may be. |
| 1:40.6 | These events are pathetic and they're humiliating. He's lost more than 40% of his primary support. |
| 1:46.0 | And so the DeSantis campaign really doesn't seem like it's the one that is soon to dominate. |
| 1:52.7 | And if you look at the latest numbers, DeSantis is now down to 15% 15% he was at 30. |
| 2:02.3 | He has now lost half of his support. So the DeSantis story doesn't seem to be going very far. |
