WHITHER RON DeSANTIS?

The Florida governor probably never had this much leverage as now

Disclaimer: When Ron DeSantis went to a meeting with Paul Ryan, Karl Rove, and other RINO GOP insiders in the early spring of 2023 to plot a presidential run against President Trump—-based entirely on thinking Lawfare would remove him from the race, bankrupt him, and/or jail him—-I was livid. To me that was the equivalent of aligning with Jack Smith and Boast-n-Bragg. Nevertheless—-and you can check my tweets—-I said the primary was already over and Trump won. This was February or March of 2023. This position cost me some colleagues, but so be it. In this essay I will try to be objective and even put myself in the governor’s place.
