[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree,Desantis is smarter and would cause more damage. With the exception of a hand full of focused, competent people Trump just put in self serving sycophants who didn't really do much.[/quote]

The ultra conservatives have been busy setting up infrastructure in DC so not to be as flatfooted like in 2016. They are ready and waiting to support either Trump or DeSantis. Media portrayals of Desantis like to paint him as the next Trump, but I think he would be better on some issues such as foreign policy. He is an opportunist just like Trump, but I think there is benefit to having someone who is smarter and [b]more rational as opposed to ego and grievance driven[/b]. Trump will have learned from his first term and be more effective at grift and destruction if he is in again.   [/quote]

Trump learns nothing. Ever.

Re: the bolded. You clearly did not pay attention to the whole Disney debacle. [/quote]

Agree with you that Trump probably didn't learn much, but his family and the people around him will.

Regarding Disney, DeSantis is quite gifted at turning Florida politics into national news. He is also smart enough to know that any serious R contender must appeal to the Trumpy wing and the Disney debacle was red meat for the base. He is building his MAGA bona fides nation-wide and the left-wing media outrage over his antics is playing into these objectives nicely. [/quote]

The Disney thing was pretty brilliant. Parents are increasingly skeptical of the push by companies and special interest groups to push progressive values onto kids, and this was indeed reassurance that DeSantis intends to push back just as hard.  [/quote]
