With Brandon being so terrible, there’s already starting to be some speculation over which Republican will defeat him in 2024.
While most Republicans prefer Trump, a substantial number would like to see DeSantis run.That has led to some worries over if the MAGA base will be deleteriously affected by primary in which the two champions of the MAGA agenda are pitted against each other, something Trump has indicated he doubts will happen.Still, however, if the two do decide to run and end up fighting, that could have some serious negative consequences and splinter the most enthusiastic members of the MAGA coalition.

The word missing in this article is LONGEVITY. Give me The Don for the next four then DeSantis for 8 after that. The Donald has learned from his first term. I truly believe he will clean house instead of trying to work with the 'tards. The really fun thing to keep an eye on are the 'tards who will be in the unemployment line. How many dimoRats can the soon to be bankrupt CNNLOL absorb before it goes toes up? I am not forgetting Cruz. He would be in his sweet spot after Tooter-Turtle bows out.

Skip the Trump rerun and jump straight to DeSantis. All the benefits without the liabilities.

There is no law that prohibits two candidates from the same state running together.

I think Florida still needs DeSantis. He'd be a great VP, but I think he could accmplish more good as Gov of Florida.

Too bad DeSantis couldn't continue to be Governor of Florida and be VP. This way, he could continue to actually make a difference doing something meaningful as Governor but still be on Deck as VP. The VP (as clearly demonstrated by Kamala Harris) doesn't do anything anyway except take up office space and occupy a seat at some Cabinet meetings.

I was thinking the other way around. I'm not sure Trump could tolerate VP. MAGA anyway.

Suits me. I also think Trump will moderate his sometimes inappropriate tweets. That ticket will win and will terrify the left.

I love Trump. I love DeSantis. But they can’t be on the same ticket—at least per The Constitution.
Of course Obama wasn’t allowed to run, but rules don’t count for Leftist half-black Democrats.

In presidential elections three or four years into the future is eons. Events occur that are wholly unexpected and beyond wildest immaginations. Few ever heard the name Barack Obama until in July, 2004, when he, then an obscure U.S. senatorial candidate from Illinois, delivered a speech to the 2004 Democratic National Convention.

I don't want to lose DeSantis as Governor. He is the only freedom Governor we have. Abbott is a distant meally mouthed second.

I supported and voted for Trump and would do so again. That said I think those of us who support him have to recognize that because of his manner and style there is a broad portion of the "undecideds" that will never vote for him. And they care not one bit about the effectiveness of his policies.

VP would be a totally useless job for him. Truman almost didn't take it because he was in no mood to be relegated to attending state funerals.
De Santis may be THE most important governor in the nation, who can role model how to protect freedom.

Agree completely with # 17. We in FL need Governor Ron, and he would be wasted in the VP job. He is smart enough to know that and would (I believe) decline the running mate slot if it were offered. And you can be sure that you will never see DJT and Ron D. opposing each other in presidential primaries. Both men are smarter and better than that.
Folks here seem to assume that Trump, if he chooses to run again, would be a shoo-in for election. Not so - He's got (deep state and media manufactured) baggage, and the Dems will not be so stupid as to run a Harris or a Hillary. Watch out for Roy Cooper, the governor of N.C., a very successful practitioner of the "moderate" gambit.
Too much is up in the air at this early stage, whatever Biden's travails. Don't look too far ahead.

I must respectfully ask that DeSantis remain in his position as Governor of the State of Florida.
He is the most inspiring governor in this country and we need men like him to inspire other men and women to lead the way he does.

While there is no law preventing Pres and VP from the same state running together, there is a provision preventing a state certifying 2 residents of that state. So Fla could not certify both JDT and DeSantis. That's a problem in a close election. JDT would have to change residency.

Agree DeSantis is leading very importantly... showing other states how to govern... and he is young. Really like Mike Pompeo as VP candidate with out beloved President Trump. After that, Pompeo with DeSantis for the future. Oh, please let it be!!

Can a President and his Vice-President be residents of the same State?

#5 I SUGGEST YOU ACTUALLY READ THE CONSTITUTION.While there is no law prohibiting both pres and bottom running from the same system It is constitutionally prohibited for the electors from that state to vote for both
such candidates. In this case Florida 30 electoral votes could not be cast for both Trump and descent is if both were Floridians. And BTW this exact
issue came up in 2000 when icy was why Cheney n moved from Texas to Wyoming. So..kindly know what you are talking about next time.

#26, I respectfully suggest you not be quite so quick to condemn another poster for not knowing a particular thing. The reason a lot of us are on here is to not only see the articles and comment on them, but to try to learn things from other posters comments.
I personally skip the articles when I am short on time and go straight to he comments as there is usually more information to be gleaned from other members of this forum than from the article.

Governors must secure their state’s election process so it is totally accurate, verifiable and accountable beyond doubt before any more elections.
Then Trump can pick whomever he chooses.
Personally believe DJT is playing games with the corrupt media at this point.
He’s way too smart to show his cards this early…

DeSantis: What was it Maverick said when Iceman told him, "You're still dangerous but you can be my wingman any time?"

actually, there is no one else in the repub party who could even touch the aura of our President, Donald J. Trump but saving Florida is a very, very big concern and should be considered, although Kristi Noem would be a thoughtful proposition for VP

I honestly believe this would be an unstoppable ticket!!!
Donald Trump has been an amazingly successful CEO for decades. He does that by surrounding himself with super talented people, and delegating them to do what they do best. If DeSantis was his VP, I have no doubt that DeSantis would do a lot more than the average VP given his incredible talents and skills. And President Trump would be sure to reward that talent and integrity with lots of public exposure, to set him up to be the front-runner for 2028!!! It would be a massive win/win for this republic -- especially following 4 years of the worst president / VP combo in history!!!

Trump moves to Texas, DeSantis for VP, and Greg Steube for Fl governor, there fixed it.
