Jack Shafer writes for Politico about the much-anticipated battle between Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis and he compares the two. Shafer probably likes neither even a little, which oddly enough makes for a relatively balanced column.
On policy there aren’t a lot of differences, and that is probably 100% intentional. Stylistically, Trump is “hot” whereas DeSantis is “cool.” Trump is the better showman, DeSantis is better at getting things done, at racking up accomplishments.
I’ll vote for whoever wins the GOP nomination, but I’d rather it was DeSantis. I’m ready for a president who can move the conservative agenda at the federal level.
