absolutely had moderates and independents and a bunch of democrats and he did turn a lot of blue areas red. his argument is he has turned a big purple state red and i know you like to denigrate your people he ran against down there, but it s chris s, not my people. but go ahead. but it is inarguable that desantis had massive electoral success among constituencies that republicans have to win and trump has never gotten more votes that are democrat. so it is correct. will that translate nationally? no. and the reason it won t is because ron desantis is the templetys of scott. that s what he is. in two, three, 4 months we are not even going to be discussing ron desantis anymore. the problem is the more you get the opportunity to meet regional oned ron desantis, the more
so who does he think that he will be appealing to if he s moving to the right of donald trump? it s really hard to get in his head because you re right. i mean he s saying, you know, i am more anti-lgbtq+ than donald trump, and then he s also saying, you can t just win with the base. it almost seems like a tactic for him because he has to say that. he doesn t have the base that trump has. so it s almost he has to say, well, trump has just slim margins and he s never going to be able to make it because he only has republicans. but if you look at desantis base, it s inarguable that he doesn t have this moderate swell that he would need. well, in florida, he absolutely had moderates, and he had independents, and he had a bunch of democrats, and he did turn a lot of blue areas red. his argument is that he has turned a big purple state red, and i know you like to denigrate your own people that he ran against down there, but first of all, charlie crist is not my people. but go ahead
