I'm not sure the GOP leadership wants them to be friends. I know they hate Trump with a passion, not because of his style or personality, but because he showed them up so badly in how to get good things done. And I am not as certain, but I suspect there are behind the scene whispers of how to neutralize the very very popular Ron DeSantis who might seek to take the place of one of their own.Thanks for the valuable information! I didn't think it was possible on this forum.
I think you're suggesting too, that the R's want Trump and DeSantis to make friends?
That would have to be on Trump's terms exclusively and it would then have to cause DeSantis to drop out of the running for the crown. Do you really think those two conditions could be fulfilled?
For now at least, I think DeSantis would be a fool to quit. Trump could be finished.
The possibilities for Trump and DeSantis to peacefully coexist within the party could be interesting!
I appreciate what both DeSantis and Trump have accomplished though and I have always put results and accomplishments ahead of personality and style. If there are a lot of folks like me out there, I think all of us would like for DeSantis and Trump to be friends. Personally I would hate to see DeSantis run in two years knowing how terribly he would be savaged. He is still very young, and unless he has a bullet proof support team around him, it could ruin him. Let him finish out his second term as governor and I think he might be in a better position to weather what they'll try to do to him.
