Desantis was the obvious choice in the primary. But, he clearly had issue with his campaign trying to connect with people and having some sort of likeable personality. I hope he can fix that for his 2028 run. To me personality shouldn't matter, policy should, which is why I can stomach voting for Trump. There were better options in the primary than Trump, half this board knew that, the other half was just brainwashed by Trump's cult of personality. Trump can't win with independents, we knew that a year ago. After the beatdown of Biden in the debate and the assassination attempt, the thought crossed my mind that Trump could actually win. Now, he still can, but that is asking him to stay on script. The problem is, he can't. Instead of hammering Kamala on policy and results, he rambles on about her not actually being black. This is true, but it adds nothing to his campaign. There are dozens of things you could attack Harris on - border czar, have no accomplishments, force her to defend Joe's failed Presidency, but nope, Trump goes for "she's not actually black"
