EXCERPT:
HEILEMANN: "But when you saw him give that press conference, mocking the media, saying that we all were wrong and foolish to say that Florida was going to look like New York and it’s been weeks now and we have basically won, I mean, it was the classic, as you said, 'Mission accomplished' moment. And at the time you watched him and you said, 'Boy, man, you are counting some chickens before they hatch.' This is a dangerous thing to do. And when you think you’re playing a winning hand in politics, the best thing to do is be humble, be graceful and not start boasting about your success and not start trashing the press. If you’re going to win this game in the long run, that’s the best posture. And now the video is out there. And I think as bad as the leadership has been, that video is something that will live to haunt Ron DeSantis all the way till the next time he has to run for re-election."
