Understand this, Gov. Ron DeSantis done almost nothing wrong until now.
About 1,500 people a day are moving to Florida from shit holes like Chicago, NYC, Philadelphia and Boston. People vote with their feet. We didn't criticize him then because he did a good job, NOT only because Trump was president. You're too narrow minded in your criticism.
Today, DeSantis is patently stupid in my eyes for the following reasons:
1--
Trump made DeSantis. Only political idiots and partisan Trump haters ignore this fact. These political know nothings also believe that DeSantis is a "threat" to Trump and that Trump is "afraid" of DeSantis. Pure idiocy.
All you need to know is that all but 1-2 Florida congressmen have endorsed Trump and that Trump owns a huge advantage in the polls with this lead widening. Plus Trump is talking issues and solutions. He goes on Fox, CNN and hold rallies.
DeSantis never faces a hostile media. In this age of advanced communications, he basically launches his campaign, for heaven's sake. Didn't Herbert Hoover launch his president bid on radio too?
2--DeSantis has already shown to be
patently stupid on many fronts. He started a war with Disney that he seems to be losing. If DeSantis refuses to negotiate with a major employer of Floridians and a very major symbolic Florida entity such as Disney, how the hell could we expect this clown to negotiate favorable arms and trade deals with foreign powers, especially our enemies? DeSantis can't and we shouldn't.
3--DeSantis has aligned himself with the GOP wing that is now dead as a major party. The GOP of the Bushes, the Cheneys, Karl Rove, Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, and a few more snakes such as Ken Cuccinelli, are done. Today's GOP is Trump and Trump is today's GOP, plus 75 million America First patriots and citizens. Bottom line, the people supporting DeSantis are anti-Trump, America last globalists, neocons, and CPC-assets such as Elon Musk and Joe Biden.
4--DeSantis has already tested the waters internationally with a ill-fated visit to London and Japan. The less I say about this ridiculous performance of his, the better.
Simply put. DeSantis is not ready for prime time. History will show that he destroyed his own promising political future because he listened to shallow minded, corrupt and incompetent GOP leaders and advisors driven by their hatred to Trump and the 75 million that support him.
