Those who support DeSantis have the goal of defeating Trump and DeSantis. They want DeSantis to win the primary and Newsom the general election.
That makes no sense. Trump is objectively weaker than DeSantis in a national general election in 2024.
I actually got dumber reading your comment.
Completely backwards. Many Trump supporters on here (including one just a few minutes ago) have said they would rather have Newsome than DeSantis, but no DeSantis supporter has said they would rather have Newsome than Trump.
That's because most DeSantis supporters just clearly see him as more conservative than Trump, so if not DeSantis, then Trump is the closest to being conservative.
For the Trump supporters saying they'd rather have Newsome than DeSantis, in their mind it's either Trump, or burn the whole country down in spite.
