Opinion by Eugene Robinson: Ron DeSantis, potential GOP standard-bearer, sounds out of his depth
Biden’s bold gesture, the ascendant faux-populist wing of the party complained about Biden supposedly — all together, now — caring more about Ukraine’s borders than he cares about our own. This is worse than an apples-to-oranges comparison; more like apples-to-orangutans. But that’s where DeSantis went, claiming that “while he’s over there,” Biden has “not done anything to secure our own border here at home.”For the record, it is not necessary to believe Biden’s handling of the U.S.
. DeSantis must know this. I doubt his professors at Yale University and Harvard Law School let him get away with such sloppy thinking.But imagine, for a moment, how his words must have brightened Putin’s day. His dream would be for Trump, who treated Putin the way a fanboy stans his idol, to return to the White House in January 2025.
