“Did the GOP political and corporate establishment put DeSantis out there a candidate in 2024 to undermine Trump, or destroy DeSantis?”
Both and Desantis fell for it big time.
I think the intention was to take both out, and put in the person they really wanted.
I wouldn’t say DeSantis “fell for” anything. The guy has been doing what he’s told for years, and probably hasn’t had an independent thought in his head since middle school.
