DeSantis Doldrum.
“As Ron DeSantis loses believers in the Beltway, he finds faith among some Iowa evangelical leaders.
The Florida governor and his super PAC have been feverishly working the religious circuit in the nation’s first caucus state, trying to capitalize on Donald Trump’s unleashing of vitriol against the state’s Republican governor, Kim Reynolds.”
The Florida Governor has chosen to run a scorched earth campaign that drums up support from the far Right base with targeted attacks on the LGBTQ community in particular. He finds this plays well in certain parts of Florida and is hoping to parlay the culture war campaign into a broader quest for the GOP nomination. His main obstacle is Donald Trump and his own quest for the nomination and more importantly the former President’s ability to control the news cycle thus sucking the life out of any potential adversaries. DeSantis’ hate laws won’t combat that.
