It looks like the Ronald Reagan eleventh commandment: "Thou shalt not speak ill of another Republican" has been forgotten by Republicans in both Trump and Desantis camps, as the 2 very well financed campaigns are already talking shots at each other. Tonight on the Eric Bolling Newsmax show, Desantis fired a few shots at Trump, including Trump's alleged friendliness with Disney. With Trump being Trump, one can easily see a litany of disparaging attacks on DeSantis.
This is bound to be damaging to whomever turns out to be the Republican candidate, with every bash adding up as ammunition for Democrats to use in the summer/fall of 2024. I have said all along that a best Republican ticket would be Trump/DeSantis. DeSantis has ZERO experience being POTUS, compared to 4 years for Trump. Trump is well skilled at dealing with the DC swamp, for which DeSantis would be a green rookie.
With Trump running for president, and DeSantis for VP, DeSantis could then get 4 years of experience in the White House and federal govt, preparing him well for 2028.
If you are a hiring employer, do you hire the guy with no experience on his resume, over the one with 4 years of experience ? (and a successful track record). You can't always get what you want (Rolling Stones used to say), and this looks like a classic case of that.
