Trump could level him. DeSantis' debate performance against even someone like a Charlie Crist was awful, but Floridians worship him, so he got a pass.

Many Republicans Want Trump Convicted and 'Out of Their Way': Attorney
One expert The Daily Beast spoke to, retired attorney and conservative Eric Owens, said that the situation is even worse for Trump than he might imagine, as Republicans now have a potential motive for seeing him convicted and taken off the political battlefield.
"I do think Trump believes he can avoid prosecution by running for president and causing delays," Owens said. "That's another Trump strategy: Delay and run out the clock. But many Republicans simply have a selfish and practical interest in seeing Trump prosecuted and convicted—for anything, really. They want him out of their way either for their ambition or because he is clearly dragging the party down with bad candidates."
The GOP's hopes for a "red wave" of success in the midterms did not end up coming to fruition, with Democrats officially maintaining, and possibly growing, their Senate control. Meanwhile, control of the House is looking to go down to the wire. Many on the right have blamed Trump's toxic influence for these outcomes, as many of the candidates he backed failed to win office.
Despite calls for him to move along as a figurehead in the Republican Party, Trump is reportedly still planning to announce his 2024 candidacy on Tuesday.
Reports previously indicated that Attorney General Merrick Garland was looking to indict Trump after the midterms, to avoid swaying voter opinions, but before the start of the 2024 election cycle.

Pence to Muir: Trump's words on 1/6 'endangered me and my family and everyone at the Capitol'
"It was clear he decided to be part of the problem."
Former Vice President Mike Pence said in an exclusive interview with ABC's "World News Tonight" anchor David Muir that former President Donald Trump's rhetoric was "reckless" as a mob of his supporters ransacked the Capitol last year -- with Pence and others temporarily forced into hiding.
"I mean, the president's words were reckless. It was clear he decided to be part of the problem," Pence told Muir.
Pence said he was "angered" over a tweet from Trump as the insurrection unfolded, when the former president said he "didn't have the courage to do what should have been done" after he rebuffed pressure to not certify now-President Joe Biden's 2020 victory.
"I turned to my daughter, who was standing nearby, and I said, 'It doesn't take courage to break the law. It takes courage to uphold the law,'" Pence, who is releasing the memoir "So Help Me God" on Tuesday, told Muir in his first network TV interview since the insurrection.
