No he’s running scared, period.
Wrong. Trump is merely treating DeSantis the way he treats all his opponents. Was Trump running scared when he hammered JEB relentlessly in 2016? This is no different. If you’re in competition with Trump, he’s going to hit you back, and hit you back hard - period. It’s the reason he was able to take out a field of 20 party backed opponents in 2016.
No, Trump is running scared. DeSantis has NOT announced, so he’s not an official opponent, Trump is running scared.
