We shouldn't pretend that they won't make "half the country" hate whoever, even one of their own like Romney, but Trump is a uniquely hateable figure. Or maybe an acquired taste.
Somebody would have to be unbelievably charismatic and quick-witted to make it through the media onslaught unscathed. They obliterated Ron Paul. Trump is good at quips and soundbites but he's also an old man who phrases things poorly sometimes, which made it easier for them to attack him with out of context quotes. I haven't seen enough of DeSantis to know how he would hold up.

DeSantis is unfortunately pretty boring.
