3. Perhaps DeSatan has flopped because all he is pushing are culture wars.

People may be getting tired of the constant lies about teachers being pedophiles and grooming kids to be gay. They also don’t necessarily like all the hatred directed toward trans people, especially kids. And the whole Moms for Liberty act that often sent in strangers to disrupt local school board meetings and turn them into shouting matches didn’t go over well in some communities. Add the book bans, and stupid Ron’s attack on Disney that says he is not business friendly and is costing jobs in Florida, and the question is what he even has to offer voters. Nothing I can see. And Casey DeSantis trying to be Jackie Kennedy (so people will think MoRon is Jack Kennedy?!!!) is a total fail. Neither one of them has any class, and it shows.
