A lot of conservatives think that DeSantis should be the nominee because he can own the libs like Trump but has none of the negatives. I think DeSantis is overrated AF and the fact that he is polling worse than Harris is pretty embarrassing. I get very strong Scott Walker vibes from him (good on paper but doesn't have what it takes to run a national campaign).
a poll on a hypothetical matchup that has a near-zero chance of happening means little. I do think it’s too early for DeSantis to run, think some of your critiques are valid as he’s a big fish in a smallish pond now.
The “Trump without the negatives” doesn’t exist. That’s like saying Slick Willie without the intern chasing.
