DeSantis doesn’t scare me. He might be worse than trump on policy in a lot of ways, but he doesn’t now and never will enjoy the cult following. Kinda have to have a personality before you can have a cult of personality. His electability is close to 0 and get asymptomatically closer every time he screams about culture war bullshit. Even Trump felt the need to nominally say that he would be lgbtq+ friendly at the gop convention in 2016. And he got cheers for it, if you remember. Which was weird. But it happened. Ronny D has his Herman Cain 999 moment in the sun already. He’s done. The gop is in that trap where the only candidates that the general could elect are the ones with no chance of winning the primary, became their party is run by and beholden to absolute sadist-morons.
