DeSantis is an “adult in the room” candidate. So was Romney, JEB, Bush Jr., and just about every other RINO who’s ever run for political office.
The gentlemanly “I’m above it all” strategy never worked against Democrats and it won’t work against Trump.
It did work. With Reagan. He was a genius who disarmed any bad will against him and conservatism.
Stop equating “polite” with “RINO”, and equating “open personal insults” with “toughness”.
Totally bogus analogies.
