DeSantis is at 22.4% on average. Ahead of where Trump was then. This is before really unloading on Trump as the man who got the vax going and made it compulsory to keep your job, destroyed small businesses across the country with mandatory shutdowns and then, on his way out the door, gave the evil genius who drafted the plans, Anthony Fauci, a medal.
In June of 20 of 2015, Trump had just announced, was a political unknown at the time and was competing with around 20 people. He never trailed his rivals throughout primary season, steadily increasing his share as other candidates dropped out.
As far as the rest of your comment, it’s a little hard to respond to since it’s unclear if you were intending it to be satire or not.
But as far as Trump making vaccines mandatory - that’s clearly false. With regards to shutdowns, he shut down travel from China. He may have also shutdown travel from other countries - I don’t remember and would have to check - but he didn’t shut down businesses, large or small.
Trump with in weeks after he announced. You don't seem to grasp how vastly superior Trump is as candidate to DeSantis as far as charisma.
Nor do you grasp that Trump is the equivalent of an incumbent with a track record the base approves of.
Reality is going to bite you in the ass sooner rather than later.
