DeSantis also outed himself. I was always worried about him because he has surrounded himself with Rinos and their people. All of his top people thought this was the best way to react and now he will lose any support he had. It would have been better to stay silent or just say he was waiting to see the indictment.

I think DeSantis is thinking that if he just sits back and lets Trump pummel him day after day, he'll look weak.  I don't blame him for taking on Trump.  He has to at some point.  Trump is a bully, and in 2016, a lot of candidates didn't know how to react to him.  So they looked weak.  And that made Trump look strong in the eyes of a lot of voters.  If DeSantis doesn't want to go the way of Jeb Bush or Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz, he has to stand up to Trump, and not just accept being bullied.

It's funny, Trump's call for protests is failing because so many people have accepted the idea that they were set up on January 6, 2020.  Some think they were set up by Antifa or the FBI, or the "deep state," and some think they were set up and abandoned by Trump himself (that one might be true).  You can't sell the idea that the January 6 riot was all a big entrapment, and then ask people to do it again.
