How Ron DeSantis emerged as a 2024 frontrunner
A recent “60 Minutes” report that detailed Florida’s vaccine rollout and Gov. Ron DeSantis’ role in it, but the network landed in some hot water after several Democratic lawmakers pushed back on its reporting that Publix, a grocery store that had partnered with the state to distribute vaccines, had donated $100,000 to Gov. Ron DeSantis' 2022 reelection campaign. In this latest episode of The Point, CNN’s Chris Cillizza explains how DeSantis is using the “60 Minutes” drama to appeal to his Republican base.

It’s George W. Bush vs. Donald Trump’s GOP
George W. Bush has been a consistent Republican voice against the divisive politics of Donald Trump -- but is there room for him in today’s GOP?
