VIDEO: The great mystery of the Republican primary

On attacking.

On Friday, Ron DeSantis campaigned in South Carolina. He went after Nikki Haley but failed to mention Donald Trump who, not for nothing, is leading the Republican presidential primary by a WIDE margin.

Here’s how the New York Times covered it:

As Ms. Haley and Mr. DeSantis joust for second place, Mr. Trump’s position in the Republican primaries, even in South Carolina, remains dominant. Mr. DeSantis may have been willing to call out Ms. Haley by name in her home state, but he continued to tiptoe around the former president using the passive voice.

Uh what?

I talked about why I don’t get (and have never gotten) that strategy in the video below.
