Honestly, this is more informed in regards to Biden than most people who voted for him.

It's not that Assad and those like him, are good people.

But they are not quite the monsters that our media portray them as.

I like Desantis but if you think the media will not do the same to him you have to be naive. They will make Desantis look mean, unhinged, racist, womanizer, etc.
Desantis is going to be a much harder target for the press. His personality is much more acceptable to the masses that Trumps, and his faults are no where near as obvious as Trumps. Unfortunately, most people vote for who they like, not who they think is best for the job, and most folks don't like Trump.....it's very stupid, but true.

Surely you haven't forgotten that the press simply makes stuff up at will, eh? For instance, 60 Minutes has already blatantly done so in their interview with Desantis a short while back. And when I say making stuff up, I mean REALLY making stuff up. Who's gonna call them out for it once they all merge their efforts into one coordinated strategy against him, as they did with Donald Trump? Each other??

Another aspect that's beyond obvious in my mind is the current "subtle" operations by the Left to cultivate and nurture a "Team Trump vs Team Desantis" situation. It's been happening and it will continue to happen even moreso in the months to come. And they continue to attack Trump because they consider him their biggest threat.

You have no idea how the press works. The press said Reagan, Bush I and Bush II were:
a. Retarded
b. Nazis
c. Racists
d. War mongers

Reagan, Bush I and Bush II were polite to the press. They wanted the press to be nice.

DeSantis says frick YOU!!!! to the press every time he opens his mouth. He learned the trick from Trump. The press will spend every day trying to kill him.
The reason he and Trump are popular is because the American people HATE the press.

I completely agree with this part of your post, but you forget that it's easy to believe bad things about a person you don't like, so denigrating Trump was easy...not so much with Desantis. He simply doesn't over-the-top attack individuals like Trump does, and that type of antic may stir up your base, but it runs off the middle-of-the-road folks that it takes to win.

You apparently have no idea about human nature. It's obvious to anyone of average intelligence that Donald Trump is NOT a very likable person, and even though Desantis takes no crap from the Press, his personality is much more acceptable to John Q. Public than Trumps.
Also, Reagan and Bush II were reelected and Bush I wasn't because he said he wouldn't raise taxes, but did.

I'm following you on that, and it's a valid point, but I guess what I'm getting at is the likelihood that they'll put Desantis in a position where he's going to be inclined to vigorously fight back, which often can be and is perceived as abrasive and aggressive. Now, don't get me wrong, I would hope that he does defend himself aggressively because these days if you don't, it's going to be seen by some folks as acquiescing to whatever the Left wing fake news claim it may be.

And the Left has such an easy time doing it......just calmly, passive aggressively throwing bomb after bomb after bomb. I believe that's the new thing - keep the opponent on the defensive at all times with disgustingly fake allegations and make the opponent have to get rough with them, despite the fact that by doing so they're hurting the entire country by essentially disallowing governance by a President for an entire 4 year period. Buncha scumbags.

It's a shame that Trump doesn't have a personality filter for the obvious trolling of the MSM. He simply makes it too easy for them.

He's definitely a damned ole hound dog when it comes to MSM. But isn't it highly likely that that exact trait (lack of politically correct filter) was a key factor in his Presidential victory to begin with? In other words, I believe it's possible that if he abandoned that approach he may well lose more votes than he would by keeping that approach.
