The GOP’s worst enemy: non-senior citizens
Highlights: Quinn Mitchell wanted to know if Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida believed that former President Donald J. Trump had violated the peaceful transfer of power on Jan. 6, 2021.
But the teenager said he was not prepared for what happened on Friday, when he was briefly ejected by police officers from the First in the Nation Leadership Summit, a candidate showcase organized by the New Hampshire Republican Party. The two-day event in Nashua, N.H., featured Mr. DeSantis and most of the G.O.P. field, but not Mr. Trump.
“They said, ‘We know who you are,’” Quinn, who has his own political blog and podcast, said in a phone interview on Saturday from his home in Walpole, N.H., referring to the organizers of the summit.
“Are you in high school? said Mr. DeSantis, who has faced criticism as a candidate for not being fluid when interacting with voters and journalists, a dynamic that has made for some awkward exchanges on the campaign trail.
Trump isn’t exactly the strongest, most charismatic person, either. His speeches are rambling messes, and he has notoriously thin skin.
I’m honestly not sure how that compares to DeSantis, but still.
Trump was a much better speaker in 2016 than he is now. Maybe his speeches didn’t make much sense, but to get people excited you don’t have to.
DeSantis was never a good speaker.
And that voice is annoying as f**k, too.
Hold on, they’re rambling incoherent messes.
