Someone explain to me the logic for DeSantis here
He's supposed to be a more centrist republican than Trump, who is just pandering to Trump voters and emulating Trump, his tagline being "competent Trumpism", trying to embrace the policies not personality, specifically to contrast his Covid-19 response
...and Trump is outflanking him by taking a more pro-vaccine position
wat
this would be like if when Ted Cruz was doing his George W. Bush impression, the real W came out and challenged him to an oxford style scholarly debate
Trump is actually outflanking his republican rival by baiting him into taking Trump's own position that Trump then undercuts. That's not even the DeSantis neutral position in the first place, just something he adopted in the Trump era
