DeSantis has to take his shot right now. If a Republican takes Biden out Desantis will be out of office and old news the next time around. Although I'd like Rick Scott to go away and let him go to the Senate. Why Republicans are ok with Scott being any sort of face for the GOP is beyond me. That guy is creepy and hard to listen to.

Now he is a politician who was a decent Governor, he is a numbers guy and a businessman at heart. Some don't like business types because they go fast for what has good numbers on the paper, and in turn do not try to please everyone. I think he is a better chief executive than a Senator, there was someone named DeSantis that was a shoe in as he was also a shoe in for his slot. Had he waited there would not be a DeSantis. To coin President Trump "this is a messy business politics"
