Who's the one Republican candidate you *don't* want to get the nomination?

19. People who say DeSantis isn't personable enough to get the nomination remind me of me

Back in 2016 I remember saying, "Trump is too crooked and unprofessional and sinful (and too obviously a well documented charlatan) to get the right wing vote."

Then later I repeated that sentence, but changed it to "...to get the Republican nomination"

Then later I repeated that sentence, but changed it to "...to get the vote in enough swing states to win the Electoral College"

I've since learned that Republican voters don't care what candidates do or how they behave in real life.
Republican voters only care what candidates say, like a mantra. If candidates castigate the right people or give lip service to the right platitudes, regardless of whether they live those standards, or offer the right dog-whistles to the biggest haters, they'll get the votes from the right. They'll even double down on the hypocrisy and call them "values voters." As long as the candidate says what they want to hear, the Republican base will remain enthralled with the shiny object.
