Maybe he can't, or won't defend himself. I won't vote for someone who won't fight back. I made that mistake voting for the Bushes, Dole, McCain and Romney. Never again.
DeSantis picked this fight? In what world are you living? He has been practically non-responsive to weeks of childish insults.
DeSantis chose to enter the race after Trump had already been a declared candidate for over 6 months. Sounds to me like DeSantis picked the fight.
Being a candidate means you’re in an adversarial relationship with other candidates. You’re criticizing Trump for not just rolling over and conceding to DeSantis.
“Maybe he can’t, or won’t defend himself.”
I’m sure he will defend himself, but just not against juvenile attacks. I like Trump and DeSantis but I hope for a fight on issues and not a fight over who can call someone the most names.
