Trump, known for his bold claims of tens of thousands, and sometimes even "millions and millions", attending his events, faces pushback as critics dispute the accuracy of these figures. 

The recent video​ released by Never Back Down intensifies the rivalry between the leading Republican contenders for the 2024 presidential nomination. In a strategic move, the DeSantis-aligned fundraising group doesn't stop at mocking Trump's rally attendance claims; it takes the opportunity to showcase Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's credentials.

The video primarily throws light on Ron DeSantis's military service and academic accomplishments, to strengthen his claim for the presidential election of 2024. As the political landscape intensifies, Never Back Down actively participates in the fray, utilizing its ability to raise unlimited funds from corporations, a privilege not available to official campaign groups. In the lead-up to the 2024 Republican nomination race, Donald Trump remains a formidable presence despite weathering controversies and opposition from figures like DeSantis.

Furthermore, Trump has also been a busy bee with speeches that invigorate the minds of his supporters. During one such address, he suggested one particular political measure he’d put forth if he gets reinstated as President in 2024. According to the Daily Mail UK reports, while speaking to the masses in Fort Dodge, Iowa, on Saturday, Trump suggested that he’d attempt a trade with the Taliban to procure control of the Bagram Airfield in Afghanistan. As per Al Jazeera sources, the military airbase was deserted by the United States on the 2nd of July, 2021, shortly after all American troops were asked to leave the country by the 30th of August later that year. Trump narrated the reason for the government “giving up” the base. 

While addressing the keenly listening crowd, he said, “We were going to keep Bagram. Bagram is the biggest base just about there is, anywhere in the world.” He continued to note, “The biggest runways, the most powerful, can hold eight-feet-deep concrete. They can hold anything, and we gave it up.”
