The funniest part of this is that all of the things the NYer analyzes as deficiencies make real conservatives love DeSantis even more.

Can Ron DeSantis Displace Donald Trump as the G.O.P.’s Combatant-in-Chief?

A fervent opponent of mask mandates and “woke” ideology, the Florida governor channels the same rage as the former President, but with greater discipline.

He has a shot, but he would have to speak out more on unfair trade, global issues and the border.
Pompeo would probably be a better replacement due to his pedigree.

I still don't think Trump loses a Primary if he is committed to running and winning. He's just too stubborn and energized when he sets his mind to it.

Describing Desantis as:
"Articulate and fast on his feet, he has been described as Trump with a brain."

Confirms my backing Desantis in the GOP primaries.
