I'm a little but surprised DeSantis actually decided to run. I know he was anointed the saviour of the GOP a while back, but Trump has turned out to be effectively unkillable as far as GOP politics goes, and has been making a fool out of him for months now.
I can definitely see DeSantis winning the primary, but I'm not sure I see Trump or the true Trumpists ever conceding or supporting him in any way. I guess we were all surprised at how easily Jeb Bush-voters or Ted Cruz-voters jumped ship, but those guys aren't Trump. It's going to be brutal. Hopefully.
Am I crazy for thinking this could legitimately ruin his (national) political career for good?
If De Santics loses to Trump in this primary, I agree his national career is finished. By 2028 they'll have moved on to the next post-Trumpian and De Santis will be old news.
