Pro-Haley super PAC labels DeSantis a Trump "suck up"
CBSN
The leading super PAC supporting former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley's run for president is attempting in a new advertisement to portray one of her main 2024 rivals as a "suck up" to former President Donald Trump.
The ad, shared exclusively with CBS News, from the pro-Haley political committee known as Stand For America Fund utilizes audio of a crowd chanting "who's your daddy" in between photos of Trump and Ron DeSantis in an attempt to call out the Florida governor.
Parts of an old campaign video from DeSantis' 2018 run for governor where the Republican evoked some of Trump's slogans to his family, like building a toy wall with one kid and saying aloud the Trump mantra of "Make America Great Again," to help teach talking are also interspersed throughout.
