The rivalry between the Republican Party’s biggest names, Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis, entered a new, more volatile phase after the GOP’s underwhelming performance in the midterm elections.
Many voiced disbelief that the two men would ever run against each other because they seem so closely aligned.
DeSantis won reelection by a nearly 20-point margin, including in many longtime Democratic strongholds. That victory, his supporters say, demonstrates the extent of his political appeal beyond the GOP’s hardcore base, which stands in contrast with Trump. Caldwell noted that DeSantis’ coalition included Latinos and suburban voters, voting blocs that Trump alienated.
Sarah Longwell, a Trump critic who leads the Republican Accountability Project, said she’s for “anybody but Trump” in 2024, but she’s not necessarily excited about DeSantis.
