This is where he gets it wrong.
“I have heard that they’re looking MORE in identity politics. I think that’s a mistake. I think you should just focus on who the best person for the job would be, and then do that accordingly.” - Ron DeSantis
Really, you’ve heard that, Ron? Trump said nothing about identity politics. Who said he’s not picking the best person? Trump was given Laura Ingraham’s list and he said those are good people. That’s not playing identity politics. That’s just being smart. And Ron is just preaching and just trying to make himself look good to his delegates.
Good point. I doubt he has any inside knowledge about Trump’s thinking process regarding his VP pick. People close to Trump don’t even know, so how would DeSantis? It’s just another example of DeSantis trying to undercut Trump while trying to pass it off as advice. DeSantis is in no position to give advice. Successful elder statesmen give advice, not pathetic losers. “DeSanctimonius” fits him perfectly.
