The good news for Biden is that the weaker general-election candidate, Trump, has seen his lead grow over DeSantis among GOP primary voters nationwide.

That's only because regular voters don't know DeSantis yet. Once they do they'll realize he's about as charismatic as a wet paper bag.

It took me all of about 30 seconds to realize I'd never willingly spend time with him. I'd like to think the people at large will ultimately feel the same. I find people are generally good at picking up on these things. Trump is a different story altogether. Lots of that was spite, which kinda came full circle to actual belief, for some, which is the scary part. ๐Ÿ˜จ

Well. Obviously.

But he's also not charismatic. Ya gotta have that going for you to succeed.
