No. He went with the information he had at the time.

We have a large percentage of voters who want to fight. They’re not sure why they’re fighting or what they want to win. But they want to fight. And for those people, Trump is their candidate and always will be.

This is a “hindsight is 20/20” proposition. DeSantis was in a good position when he entered the race. But he forgot that Trump is a fighter and you don’t beat him by being above the fray.

Not at all, plenty of dust had settled and the support for Trump remained very high when Desantis chose to run. Not hindsight in any measure. It was clear for all to see.

You can dislike and disagree for the reasons voters are sticking with Trump, but it was clear to see what would happen and was even discussed as such at the time. It was a poor decision. Plenty of proof existed then that it was a losing bid.

I think your dislike for Trump and his supporters are clouding your judgement some, and I find that odd because I find you to be a very reasonable and intelligent poster, and I am not calling that into judgement at all.

There was plenty of signs it was a bad time to run against Trump. Plenty of posters here called it when he did. You can't say that was a guess because it was clear to me then as it is clear to me now.

Take out any of your personal thoughts and opinions of Trump, but that is fact.

You don’t think we’re intelligent enough to know what we’re fighting?
