DeSantis is not some rich elite. He is self made and more of a blue collar guy. If he was opposition, he wouldn't be so far ahead of them. RD plays offense and they have to play defense against him. You're falling for some bullshite

Thank you. His background is unquestionably working class, his mom was a nurse and his dad was a cable guy. Ron, as a non-legacy, was able to get into Yale and then go to Harvard law after that. He also competed in the Little League World Series as a kid, joined the Navy after law school, and was a JAG. These are all things that should be celebrated. When Ron declares that he's running for president (he has 120 million+ cash on hand and he's only going to need a fraction of that to beat Crist, he's running for president) he will highlight these things to endear him to voters who don't know him beyond his governorship. He's also done all this by age 43, it's not like he's a fossil like everyone else that wants the presidency.

If Trump weren't in the picture it would be understood by all that the nomination was his if he wanted to run. Nobody else currently on the Republican bench is in his galaxy. He is so obviously the best candidate that it makes me certain the GOP will find a way to run Trump again and piss it all away.
