    I’ll be honest, I thought DeSantis was gonna beat Trump handily. I guess all the anti-trans stuff DeSantis has been doing - while incredibly harmful - isn’t the thing that gets most reactionaries super excited over?

      I think a lot of people did until they saw videos of him talking and responding to even the slightest criticism. Also, the entire Republican base, while down with sicko shit, isn't necessarily happy with all the culture war stuff. not because they care about trans or queer people but because they think they're wasting time when they could be doing more serious stuff like immigration policy or attacking the Middle East again.
