What is he going to do when he terms out of being Governor in 2026 if he doesn't run?
Florida has gubernatorial term limits of only two terms maximum.
Marco Rubio is in one Florida Senate seat till atleast 2028.
Rick Scott will be in the other Senate seat till 2030.
Thus running for Senate is not an option.
No governor goes for the downgrade of running for a House seat again.
What will he do, be a host on Newsmax after his governorship is over?
Candidates who are out of political office for years and decades become forgotten and old news.
2024 is his best opportunity and he would be a fool to wait.
If he did lose the 2024 primary then he will still be very relevant for 2028.
Many GOP nominees have lost the previous presidential primary, become the nominee in the cycle after and then won the general.
Look at Reagan and H.W Bush
Running in 2024 for DeSantis has immense benefits and no big costs.
Damn, I didn't know that. Then he needs to hand pick and promote his successor. After that anything is up for grabs. I still don't think he'd necessarily lose no matter when he runs, and 2028 is only 2 years after 2026. When he announces his campaign he'll be in the news again.
