The Washington Examiner: Former President Donald Trump has strengthened his position as the GOP’s leader and is now in his best position yet to win the Republican presidential nomination and beat President Joe Biden in a grudge election next year.
New polling data shared with Secrets on Tuesday morning indicate that Trump has a 41-percentage-point lead over Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), who is expected to join the GOP race this month.

The pollster said that Trump’s lead over DeSantis in a head-to-head vote has grown from 11 points, 51%-41% in January, to his current 67%-26% lead.
