And DeSantis refuses to share the stage with people who might steal some of his thunder -- because he doesn't have much thunder to bring. He's not quite "short" but he's definitely short for a politician, and after Fauci, I don't want short man syndrome anywhere near power.
will do shit like praise Gavin Newsom just because Newsom was nice to him
Praising someone for doing something they like. Wow, what a weakness. Next you're going to tell me that he'll attack people who do things that he doesn't like -- the madman!
So Trump doesn't have the credibility to talk like this and have it carry the same weight it would if someone like DeSantis said it.
In your opinion, which is clearly in the minority in the Republican party.
I can't imagine DeSantis talking like this, and if he did, he'd instantly lose nearly all his support because they're backing him precisely because he's effective and not a "mean tweets" kind of guy.
Trump is valuable as President only to the degree he damages or ends the administrative capture of the state and abolishes some of the more corrupt and damaging agencies like the Dept. of Education, Housing and Urban Development, the CIA and NSA, and replaces the leadership of the FBI.
He'd probably take a bullet if he attempted any of it, but he's the bull in the china shop. A big "Fuck YOU" to the administrative permanent party.
If we want a rational statesman with a less radical agenda, we'd elect Ramaswamy or Kennedy.
By that logic, if Trump "went to the debates & talked like this", Trump would also have the hearts & minds of the Right.
I'm not sure why you'd bring either Trump or DeSantis into this other than to display your bias.
The problem with Trump is that he's full of shit & changes his mind all the time anyway.
He's also completely obsessed with himself & will do shit like praise Gavin Newsom just because Newsom was nice to him.
So Trump doesn't have the credibility to talk like this and have it carry the same weight it would if someone like DeSantis said it.
So are they all.
Also applies to DeSantis.

wrong conclusion
yes, he's effective.
throwing roundhouses at the libs doesn't magically make him not effective
