Lots of "Trump in trouble" talk

Many people already speculating that a Trump/DeSantis showdown over the Presidential nomination must now happen, given Trump's high profile mid term picks did pretty poorly, and DeSantis did so well.  Some say DeSantis should sit it out and run in 2028 - he's only 44 (gawd - he could pass for older.)   But surely, there are enough in the GOP to know that Trump won't win in 2024??   Biden may not be super popular, but Trump is extremely damaged goods outside of his cult following, and stuck in stale repetition.    Even the ageing Australian dimwits at the post Catallaxy blogs are mostly against Trump running again.

Finally, are we going to have an actual confrontation between the Trump MAGA idiot wing of the Party, and the rest of it??   I hope so.

And incidentally, I don't think DeSantis has any noticeable charisma at all.  I don't expect him to do well at the national level.
