Trump has zero credibility.
Desantis is not currently a candidate for political office.
Not sure why anyone would care.

Has DeSantis denied any of this?
He hasn't. He did come out at an event and say he's working and delivering for the people of Florida and not spending his time attacking other Republicans. That's weak sauce and an indication that he's gonna wilt like a fresh flower under the hot lights of a national campaign.
That NY Times story is bad news for him.
Yep, he's done. He may end up being the VP nominee. There's no way Pence will be back. He wasn't willing to commit treason for Trump.

No wonder he was so vocal about it.
“Every conservative accusation is a confession” is a cliche for a reason; it keeps proving itself true.

I think this is a nothing burger. I hate DeSantis but this story is meh.

But the lower income white MAGAs in places like PA, OH, and MI are still all in on Trump. The
In short, DeSantis is going to cleave Trump’s base but it probably won’t be enough to win. While the wealthy MAGAs vote more consistently, their numbers are too small. White working class MAGA with racial resentments still control the ballot box.
If the GOP was smart they’d go all in on DeSantis as the one true Trump alternative and strong arm anyone else out of running. But instead they’re going to have a bunch of irrelevant Pences and Pompeos and Haleys splitting up the anti-Trump vote so it’ll end up like the 2016 primary again.

Apparently he partied with the older students. If you don't think the cute history teacher was hooking up with students, then you're pretty naive.
Several students recalled that Mr. DeSantis was a frequent presence at parties with the seniors who lived in town. Most spoke about socializing with him on the condition of anonymity because they feared backlash for speaking publicly about it.
“As an 18-year-old, I remember thinking, ‘What are you doing here, dude?’” one former student said....
...Last year, Hill Reporter, a blog put out by a Democratic super PAC, published a photograph of Mr. DeSantis taken with several female students from Darlington in 2002, one of whom was holding what appeared to be a bottle of beer.
Two former students, both women, remembered him attending at least two parties where alcohol was served, but they said that the parties took place after graduation and that they were not bothered by his presence at the time, although they question it now. “It was his first job out of Yale, he was cute. We didn’t really think too much about it,” one of the former students said.
hmmm...just like all those claims about Kavanaugh that turned out to be complete bunk. "Anonymous" sources...yep we've all seen that before.
a pic from a guy named Dong-Chan Lee who blurs faces, gives no context, no one knows who the girls are in the photo let alone their age at the time, no one knows the photo's age (it could have been a photo from his college days at a frat party).
Trump and the left are grasping at straws because they fear DeSantis is a real winner.
