converting back, yeah. who would vote for him that didn t previously vote for him? so the reason i think he ll likely be a candidate is here s a list i just gathered. see if you remember any of these people. scott walker, herman cain, ben carson, bob by jindal, rick perry and lindsey graham. you do remember lindsey graham. those are all people who ran in 2016 the way ron desantis, each of those people had their moment in the sun and it is a brief moment in the sun. it is nutty for me to believe desantis is going to go through the next year and a half and sail through. i think in the end there will be four, five, six candidates. they ll split the vote, and trump has a base horrifically, but he has a base i think he will draw on, so i do expect now he will.
