What makes you think they'll know who DeSantis is, beyond what the media tells them? Because if they're that willfully ignorant, that they can't even use their own eyes to look around them and see how two years of Biden has made their own lives demonstrably worse than the previous fours years under Trump, then there is no prying them away from the influence of mainstream media propaganda; no matter how weakened they've become.Again, not everyone is as hooked into politics as we are. Most aren't. All they think about politics is contempt for Trump, and think Biden's a moron. But better a moron than someone awful. But they'd cheerfully vote DeSantis over Biden.
Look, what people fail to realize is that Biden is considered incredibly safe because he is a moron. That's how he won the primary: he didn't seem to be a radical, he was just dumb. Given the lesser of two evils, people will choose dumb over evil everytime. But give them any other option but Trump, and suddenly it becomes competent non-evil vs dumb, and competent non evil will win.
Ben Shapiro is a consummate liar and servant of the establishment, no better than anyone you'd find over on CNN or MSNBC. The only difference is that his role is to be controlled opposition.Ben Shapiro is closer to the mindset of most of the US than most GOP media personalities, and whether he's a neocon or not, doesn't mean he's wrong about what the wider US populace wants or why the GOP so badly underpreformed.
