Shortcomings for Trump (not in my mind, but in election politics in general):
1. age
2. abrasive personality
3. clownish behavior

Shortcomings for DeSantis:
1. Ivy League lawyer
2. career politician
3. now being peddled as a Trump alternative by establishment GOP types

Always your claim of career politician, regardless of his military years. (Something Trump lacks.)

Good way to sum it up. I’m really impressed with DeSantis and how he has governed Florida during his tenure. Would he be able to do the same in Washington? Perhaps he will try too hard to be amicable with the legislators inside the beltway? Hard to say at this point.
