Can Ron DeSantis Displace Donald Trump as the G.O.P.’s Combatant-in-Chief?

A fervent opponent of mask mandates and “woke” ideology, the Florida governor channels the same rage as the former President, but with greater discipline.

quote:
“Trump World is working overtime to find ways to burn DeSantis down. They really hate him.”

I saw an article a few days ago about how much people in Florida love Desantis. Like LOVE him. Even moderates. They are just so grateful that he kept the state open and the economy humming along. It was a very depressing article....I'd post it but I'm not sure where I saw it - it came up on my facebook feed from some national source but I can't remember where.

ETA - found it. https://www.washingtonpost.com...is-florida-campaign/

Beware of Trojan snowflakes.

quote:
In Iowa on Friday to promote his new book, Gov. Ron DeSantis posed with a gift from a supposed supporter.

The gift, a framed cutout of an intricate snowflake, features the word “fascist.” Steven Goffman, whose profile says that he works for the Washington Post, tweeted that Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds, also a Republican, posed with a copy of the gift, too.

This article is 2 years old.

I wonder what the statistics are today.

It seems people here are pretending the pandemic doesn't exist.
