Doesn't mean he won't win the nomination, but DeSantis is far, far stronger than anyone he went up against in the 2016 primary. If DeSantis can stay above the fray and keep on message, he might win simply by Trump boring people to death.
The key to Desantis having a chance is making a 1v1 as soon as possible. Hogan, Pence and Youngkin sure look like they are making moves to run. I'd guess the RNC does their best to keep them from running.
