Sorry, but my “negative impulses” haven’t blinded me to anything.. I have stated many times that Desantis is being used by the establishment/neverTrumpers/globalists and even the left propping him up to try to foil Trump. So not sure where that is coming from.
Desantis has shown he’s an establishment politician, he’s got the same issues ALL establishment politicians do, he’s beholden to the money men... and the money men are, like it or not, are folks who think like Cheney/Bush/Rove/McCain/et al. I provided you a perfect example of this... he went off script with what they say, and was bitch slapped back in line and he happily cowtowed in less than 24 hours.
Desantis isn’t going to take on the deep or administrative state, he’s not going to fight the system, because he’s owned by it. He’s clearly not ready for prime time at the national level. The more he is being pushed and seen the lower he is polling, and that’s not because of Trump, that’s because of Desantis. It’s abundantly clear he’s not being authentic, and that isn’t going to sell to a national audience.. especially in a race where you have Trump in play.
No I don’t live in Florida, though what relevance you believe that has in speaking of a national election and the chances Desantis has is beyond me. Mason-Dixon poll just this month showed Desantis losing to Trump in Florida, and losing by more than the margin of error.
Desantis is free to run, but the math isn’t there for him to win, not with Trump in the race.
Desantis’ story isn’t going to win the day in the primaries, no matter how much the left/establishment/nevertrumpers try to push it.
This is politics, Bannon’s CPAC speech provided the argument for Trump in 2024... I suggest you go watch it if you haven’t, and if you think Desantis is going to provide a narrative that is going to counter and beat that when put before the republican voters, then I think you are the one being too emotionally attached.
If I saw a path for Desantis, I’d happily admit to it, I don’t... there is just no math that exists that puts Desantis as the nominee (or anyone else for that matter) with Trump in the race.
Please provide one or two examples of any executive action that Ron DeSantis has taken that support this allegation. I am betting you cannot. In which case, my previous statements continue to stand.
The rest of your diatribe is simply hollow speculation.
DeSantis is currently the most effective conservative governor currently in office in the entire United States. Yet all you do is focus on your imaginary points against him.
What are your loyalties, exactly? Blind support of Donald Trump, or saving this nation from ruin? They do not automatically coincide.
