Scott’s just as crazy as the rest of the party, but he gives the MAGAts an aura of legitimacy (‘See, we’re not racist!’). They think they’re ‘owning the libs’ by daring us to criticize him. Personally, I think Trump will die or be found guilty of sedition before the primaries, and DeSantis is so authoritarian and unlikeable that even the MAGAts can see it. They need to nominate someone, and it almost has to be a wingnut. Scott may be the puppet that they’re looking for.
