I feel like DeSantis is a plant, because his entire war with Disney is literally the most retarded shit I've seen and it's not going to stop Disney at all. It's only gonna backfire and negatively impact Florida's economy.
It feels like the Dems know a united Republican party under one candidate would absolutely ruin their chances at re-election because a strong sole candidate would motivate the moderates and independents to go right. DeSantis went from being pretty based during COVID to making erratic and questionable decisions the closer we get to the next presidential election.
If he somehow wins I don't think he's enough of a businessman to play the businessman hustle he's playing. It worked for Trump because that's his life. He's playing ball with the bureaucrats and losing the fight spectacularly because he isn't giving them any reasons to keep playing. If he does that with the US economy it'll be on par with Biden's shitty leadership.
If DeSantis runs with a good partner that can balance him out, maybe. But he's also the kind of guy that likes to do his own thing and doesn't play well with others. Dunno who an ideal running mate would be. Hawley maybe?
