You mean like Trump still taking credit for Warp Speed and being the world’s #1 Vaccine salesman?
Sometimes things change dramatically while staying the same.

In every way, this is a huge strategic error by DeSantis to run this cycle.
He should focus on 2028.

Sounds at about right - current climate simply does not favor a run for him, especially since there is more than one other opponent already running.
Vivek Ramaswamy would seem to be the alternative if Trump were to drop out or crash somehow in the current environment and not DeSantis.
Ideally DeSantis would be running now to succeed Trump in his second term.
To: SoConPubbie
DeSantis seemed to have so much promise. But then, undoubtedly egged on by the Roves and Bushes of the world, he’s suddenly turned into a typical self-centered politician, willing to abandon his constituents in Florida to chase after visions of personal glory. I’ve never seen anything quite like this. He’s going to be ground into powder by Trump, but the ensuing battle could end up wrecking 2024 and handing it to the dems yet again.
What an idiot.

Bret who?
I remember when Bret Baier replaced Brit Hume back in 2008 and thinking, "Wow, this guy is a total lightweight." I haven't watched Special Report since.

Whether it is trump or DeSantis, the winner better pick Scott as their Veep if they want to win the General.

Brett Baier and Karl Rove discussing Ron.
Kinda like two yard gnomes discussing a third.
To: SoConPubbie
Bret Baier is a Democrat, so he’ll poo-poo any Republican unless they are a Dem plant.

I agree.

“. . . the 2024 Republican primary will have to experience an earth-shaking development.”
Listen to the news. Something earth-shaking is happening every news cycle. No one can even keep track.
To: SoConPubbie
It is so weird to me that in order for trump to win the primary neither trump nor his supporters realize he’s absolutely nuking his chances in the general. The truly weird part is if trump wins the primary and loses the general, most of his sycophant supporters around here will be happy.

De Santis needs to keep laughing like a braying jackass.
To: SoConPubbie
Well that's not good news for DeSantis.

Read the guy's background and biographical profile and pretend you didn't know who he was. You'd swear you were reading about a perfect example of a "Deep State" political operative.
