“But then, for the board desantis supporters/nevertrumpers, anything that hurts or takes out Trump in their view is good.”
That’s because DeSantis represents the Swamp, and the NeverTrumpers are nostalgic for pre-2016 Republicanism.
The only reason Trump is charged with anything is because he is running again, and looks like he will win.
If he was just playing golf at Mar a Lago, or polling at 2%, none of this would be happening.
It is all political, and it is completely legit for him to raise money for his legal defence.
DeSantis represents winning something trump hasn’t done in 7 years.
