DeSantis feels more like a narrative device for the media than a serious candidate. The news outlets need to work up some drama so that they have something to talk about between now and Trump’s coronation. I could be wrong, but I feel like I’ve seen this movie before.
I think it’s all of the above, and probably not even that intentionally. Media outlets have the incentive to create horserace narratives, regardless of the underlying reality. They also have preexisting explicit and implicit biases that will slant their coverage to their preferred outcome. And, of course, lots of them are followers who will cover DeSantis for no other reason than response to induced demand. It all adds up to a manufactured DeSantis hype train that will, barring some unforeseen circumstances, chug along until it’s clear he isn’t going to win, at which point the narrative will shift to Trump vs Biden. Rinse repeat.
Anecdotal but the only people I’ve seen giving DeSatan attention is CNN
Ive seen alot of :LIB:s trying to taunt Trump by saying he’s gonna lose to Ron. They’re all rooting for Ron to win the primary.
ofc liberals don’t give a shit about fascism but imagine rooting for a fascist because Trump is rude on twitter.
tfw you think the pied piper didn’t work before because trump isn’t enough of a fascist
ted cruz ass candidate
Fuck one of these two assholes is going to be president again
You mean the most important election of our lifetime! Democracy itself is at stake this time! :vote: :liberty-weeping:
Multiparty democracies are inherently more democratic than evil tankie states. Even if the second of the two parties is trying to tear apart democracy openly while the other just shrugs. Sorry, thems the rules :maybe-later-honey:
Watch him be on the same ticket as :trump-moist: . He has the attention of a LOT of fascist money. He’s young. I don’t think he’s going away.
They’ll kiss and make up as soon as the primary is over. Then DeSantis will become one of his biggest cheerleaders. And it’ll be back to business as usual.
