My pessimism makes me think likely Trump. As much as I'd like to believe that failures of Trump-backed candidates this primary season show his weakness, I genuinely believe that once Trump announces, the GOP will largely fall in line. Many voters currently saying they may support DeSantis, I could easily imagine flipping on him once Trump drags him through the mud. I desperately hope to be wrong, but we'll see...
I disagree. I think DeSantis is very capable of withstanding attacks from Trump and pushing back. He’s not going to just roll over for Trump. Also, the polling has been getting worse for Trump lately.
