Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis tried to get under Donald Trump’s skin this week by implying on a radio talk show that the ex-president arrogantly thinks he’s entitled to the Republican nomination and that he would be short-cutting the process if he doesn’t show up on the Milwaukee debate stage next month.
“You have got to earn the nomination,” DeSantis argued.
DeSantis should watch out what he wishes for. If past performances are an indication, Trump could walk away from a debate stronger, while DeSantis is more likely to struggle in the spotlight.
