Ron DeSantis proved to be a capable campaigner and looked poised to defeat Donald Trump in New Hampshire and beyond, we would be facing a multitude of left-leaning essays on a single theme: «Why DeSantis is actually more dangerous than Trump.» In this world, the only threat to Trump in New Hampshire is Nikki Haley, and her candidacy doesn't look built to last much beyond that primary.
