Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has taken aim squarely at Donald Trump, with the former president set to miss a major forum in Iowa Friday and dangling the prospect of playing hooky from next month’s first debate. “Nobody is entitled to this nomination,” DeSantis told conservative Boston radio host Howie Carr Wednesday. “You have got to earn the nomination and doing things like the Family Leader event in Iowa, doing things like these debates, they’re important parts of the process.” Trump has been noncommittal about attending the first Republican showdown, hosted by Fox News and slated for Aug. 23 in Milwaukee. Earlier this week, organizers of a key Des Moines cattle call — the Family Leadership Summit — revealed that the former president won’t attend that event.

Ron doesn’t need to close a gap.

That gap closed after he declared his candidacy.

Remember when you folks made that prediction, like you’re
making this one now?

We do.

As I recall, the first debate was a debacle. Pretty sure that was the one where he kept talking over everyone so you couldn’t really hear him anyway, and made Biden look like the civil one.

(Not that Biden was anywhere like brilliant or sentient, but they probably maximized his meds to make him seem smart and awake.)
