As we know only too well, Donald Trump is a prodigious hater. He hates the people who denied him the respect he deserved when he was growing up. He hates people who are disloyal to him. He hates people who get in his way. He hates people who aren’t “real Americans,” as the right defines that term. That’s what makes him an identity politician, not an ideologue.
Ron DeSantis is different; he hates wokeness (whatever that means on any given day), not particular kinds of people. If you’re not woke, you’re OK with him, regardless of your ethnicity or religious beliefs. If you’re woke, you’re in trouble.
It’s the classic Christian formula: love the sinner, but hate the sin.
