Something no one seems to remember: when DeSantis entered the race, the odds were less than even that Trump would survive the lawfare that was being thrown against him, and there needed to be someone who could have a running campaign as Trump’s successor.
What Trump has accomplished in tying up the lawfare attackers in knots, plus the revenge-vote that wants to support Trump because the voters understand that Trump is in the line of fire and we’re next, made the DeSantis campaign unnecessary. That’s the best of all possible situations, so let’s start really taking it to the left with TRUMP!
AFTER the super majority Florida legislature did two things for him personally ... By law hide his travel and phone contacts... and gave him employment cover to run while still holding office ...
Somebody promised this law fare cluck President Trump was going down... and he decided to take advantage of the corruption.
That’s largely true. There were some DeSantis supporters who were not anti-Trump, at least initially. But as Trump continued to grow in the polls, despite the lawfare or maybe because of the resilience he showed in the face of it, their concerns over that issue diminished as did their numbers, and what DeSantis was left with was a small core of never-Trumpers.
