Interesting. I mean, he might have all kinds of personal/financial reasons, but I certainly don't feel like Trump's position in this race was secured, with all the legal battles going on.

I'm not really informed, but did DeSantis ever even attack Trump over those legal troubles?
Seems like an easy argument to me, that people should back him, not Trump, because the legal troubles might block Trump.

"Vote DeSantis, for the same authoritarian politics, without the chance of my authoritarian past catching up to me! 😀👍"

Does make me wonder, if through the magic of social media algorithms, filter bubbles and such, they genuinely don't see how those lawsuits are justified. I always assumed, they couldn't admit it, because it would be a political disaster, but DeSantis would have had reason to be a dissenter here...

None of those toadying losers had the guts to stand up to Trump and his base. Probably afraid of being murdered by stochastic terrorism.
