Yes it's early and nobody is gonna have an obituary written right now. But DeSantis looks bad. A week since his "dominating debate performance," according to his supporters. Days into his "commanding hurricane response," according to his supporters. They keep trying to create a DeSantis Moment and it's not happening. I've said Trump should debate and stand by that, however one of the benefits of not debating is that he prevents that moment from happening for DeSantis. 

I also agree that it was a mistake to launch a campaign online. His entire campaign seems obsessed with online shit no one cares about. It's not a coincidence that trans shit didn't come up in that debate, or that "woke" wasn't mentioned much if at all. In the real world, that is not a major concern of voters. Too bad DeSantis has spent the last two years talking about that exclusively. Trump got crucified by right wingers for dismissing the anti-trans, anti-woke shit but he was clearly right. That's NOT what is driving Americans.
