Unfortunately, yes. George Will agrees and goes further to explain how DeSantis shot himself in the foot through several fundamental policy errors that took him from the leading candidate to falling in the shadow of Trump. Things don't look pretty now.

I also agree that the charges against The Don are trumped up, a travesty for the nation, unwinnable in the long run, and divisive. I wish that Bragg could be sued civilly for malicious prosecution, and disbarred, all that fun stuff that will never happen. Maybe the only save is for Trump to be Epsteined in his castle. Trump and Putin both.
