Republican strategist Reena Shah has shown that Ron DeSantis knows how to start a fight but not finish it and we are already seeing the end of his 2024 hopes.

When asked about suing DeSantis on MSNBC, Shah said:
Well, I think this really turns out that Ron DeSantis knows how to start a fight, but he doesn’t know how to finish that fight. And the crux of the matter is that the Republicans are getting excited, and they’re the kind of financiers that Ron is our guy. But what we are seeing now is slowly revealing itself. We’ve heard whispers about his brief stint as a congressman in Washington, where he seems mostly insecure, with no real legislative priorities. He also had that naked interest in the presidential election. For this he did not even announce the primary election.
So, what I see here is the beginning of the end for Ron DeSantis, and I’m not sure where this is going to take us. It’s being widely talked about that Donald Trump is someone who can take over, except leave him where he’s not. And basically, leading a lot of convinced Republicans — sorry, after Trump who’s convinced Ron is our guy as a Republican, it makes them wonder, is this our guy?
DeSantis’ own donors have called for a change in campaign and strategy. Because they don’t see what the governor of Florida is doing right now.
Then there was Britain, where DeSantis received scathing reviews at a meeting with business leaders in London. DeSantis explained Politics Like, “He went to five different countries in five days and it looked like he really had a blast, but his message wasn’t presidential. It was horrible.”
Who can forget the screams of DeSantis on his overseas trip?
No. Ready. b. PRIME TIME

The Never Back Down Super PAC, which supports DeSantis, released a fictional campaign launch ad that’s more Orwellian than encouraging:
DeSantis doesn’t interact with people in the ad. Instead, the governor of Florida talks and people watch intently on screens. The ad ends with those same people deciding to follow their new leader by putting a DeSantis sign on their front yard and replacing their Trump bumper stick with DeSantis.
The video is not inspiring. is it Fahrenheit 451 Level embarrassing.
Ron DeSantis is showing that he is not ready to sit at the table of adults in the 2024 presidential election.
DeSantis doesn’t think he needs to change his strategy. The governor of Florida is probably going to be rolled by Trump.
DeSantis appears to have a presidential campaign that is destined to fail before it even begins.
