DeSantis has been not just a great governor fof Florida - I voted for him twice - but he’s a great leader and executive. He takes the fight to the enemy and wins. He’d make a great president at some point.
All that said, and I keep telling people this, he’s literally the WORST campaigner I have ever seen.
I think you nailed it.
DeSantis is clearly not politically astute.
Ten years ago if you were a national candidate and you had 90% big heavy hitters backing you no one would know about it. Today in 48 hours the world knows just about everything there is to know about you!!
So campaigning is a new ball game and you better be good at it or lose.
