Im not saying anyone should vote against Desantis or not vote, God forbid. I’m just explaining candidates will lose some Trump supporters by winning out.

I understand but we had 2 major state candidates go against the President on what is clearly (from a non-delusional Republican perspective) a study that was rigged to maximize the death toll from the Hurricanes that Puerto Rico suffered. You may not agree with the President completely but to say this study that purports a death toll of around 3000 is true as declared by the Puerto Rican Governor is typical spineless RINO behavior.

What either candidate could have said was that:
Any number of deaths in the after math of a hurricane is too many. We need to standardize our analysis of these types of disasters so we can take preventive steps in the future. We need to agree on numbers of deaths but more importantly we need to agree on causes of these deaths. If poor infrastructure is to blame then we need to work on modernizing all our states so that these kinds of deaths can be avoided where at all possible.

I would have been fine with that. But now I need to make an example of someone with my vote. I will make an example of the person that has the least impact on my life by virtue of the position he is running for. That would be DeSantis. If he loses and Rick Scott wins that will be a message to Rick Scott: mess with your base at the risk of your own political career.

It's time that Republican politicians stood up for each other like the democrats do.
