Meanwhile, Gov. Ron DeSantis (Fla.) elicited a few hand raises.
“Two hands and a clap,” co-host Raymond Arroyo observed.
Nikki Haley didn’t appear to receive any support as not a single hand was seen raised in her favor.
The segment was particularly embarrassing for Fox News given their full-throated support for DeSantis in the 2024 election cycle.
A recent NBC poll shows Trump far ahead of the GOP competition with 58%, with DeSantis trailing in second at 18%.
