White House hopeful Ron DeSantis hasn't been looking all that sharp of late.
Florida governor Ron DeSantis sees himself as a warrior in the fight against"cultural Marxism".MIAMI - Long viewed as the most formidable challenger to Donald Trump in the Republican US presidential nominating contest, Ron DeSantis boasts a record of ultra-conservative legislative wins and a pile of campaign cash.
DeSantis finally began speaking after almost half an hour of confusion and chaos that thoroughly overshadowed what should have been an exultant launch. His missteps on the campaign trail are almost too frequent to enumerate but they have combined to give the impression that, in public at least, he is not a charming man.
