‘ Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican.’

Using that logic, why have a primary? They can all state they have the same policies and hope voters can choose the nicest one.
Had Trump not been ‘nasty’ 2016, the other 16 triggered candidates wouldn’t have shown their ‘nasty’ side which exposed their true colors. They took off their political masks in anger. More importantly the reaction of media, deep state, big corp, RINO’s, Dems and libtards also exposed themselves. Their reaction to Trump was the biggest red pill ever seen. And we are wiser for it.
Too many forget that we couldn’t even say merry Christmas before Trump. He saved America in so many ways by being Trump (brash, steady and defiant). Those that poo poo this don’t realize how powerful and helpful it is. They’re more concerned about ‘feelings’ and ‘statesmanship’. Feelings and statesmanship got us Bush, McCain, Romney and most of Congress. Remember when McCain asked a citizen at a televised townhall not to criticize Obama?
If republican voters don’t start focusing on what really matters we will return to Bush/McCain/Romney 2028. DeSantis is in that arena. His approach to this election cycle proves he cares more about his ambitions than the movement. Why would any candidate run against Trump with 55% support in the primary race? How can DeSantis win the general if he can’t win the primary? That makes him an opportunist.
Nice take. Kudos for your insightful response.
Trump wants to be president again because he knows where the bodies are buried, and because he loves his country. Few democrats can say that part out loud and mean it.
