Not one thing you have posted indicates that he could lead our nation.   He is just another bought and paid for lawyer with a megalomania fixation.
He was a pompous jerk looking for a Crown of Laurel leaves back then, and for all I've seen he hasn't changed.

Pranks, Parties and Politics: Ron DeSantisʼs Year as a Schoolteacher

He was a brash young Ivy League graduate, an athlete who made it clear to anyone who was listening that this sojourn at the Darlington School was a pit stop on his way to bigger things; maybe he would even be president some day, he told his students.

As a baseball and football coach at the school, Mr. DeSantis was admired and respected by his team. As a teacher, he was remembered by some former students as cocky and arrogant.

“He was a total jock; that was his personality, ” said Gates Minis, a 2003 graduate who lives in Colorado. “He was definitely proud that he graduated Ivy and thought he was very special. ”

Boarding students live in one of six dormitories on a lush, 500-acre campus northwest of Atlanta in an area now represented in Congress by a conservative firebrand, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Several students described Mr. DeSantis as having an air of superiority.

“Mr. DeSantis was kind of a smug guy, ” Mr. Arne said. Students were well aware that he had just graduated from Yale, he said. “It was like a, ‘I’m kind of better than you, ’” he said. “And we were all just kids. ”

They said Mr. DeSantis challenged the boy to guzzle as much milk as he could in one sitting. The boy did, and threw up as dozens of students watched. “I think about it, now — I’m a teacher now in public school, ” said Adam Moody, who was a freshman on the baseball team and witnessed the incident. “I put myself in that moment, and it’s just unthinkable. There’s a cruelty to the sense of humor. There’s a cruelty to the mentorship. ”
