What we are witnessing is the great push for Desantis to run in 2024 by the Uniparty
...which will probably fail as he knows better, unless Trump himself pull out on his own free will (most likely event this might happen is if he starts having health issues) NO ONE but grifters will run against him as it's political suicide.
Trump is clearly not close to invulnerable in a primary in 2024 and DeSantis obviously sees it and he will run.
Trump has an abysmal history on personnel selection, he refuses to stop praising the vax that his own base of supporters despise and Trump has also made terrible endorsements in the 2022 primaries like Dr. Oz and Herschel Walker which has cost Republicans winnable seats in swing states. Trump refuses to stop complaining impotently about the 2020 election and he comes with more baggage than ever after J6.
This is not the Trump of 2016 or even the Trump of 2020. This is Trump in his weakest position.
If DeSantis waits for 2028, he will never become President as he will become irrelevant.
In 2024 the nominee will be Trump or DeSantis. The possibility exists for either one to win. The winner will be decided based on their primary campaigns. Anyone telling you that Trump is guaranteed to be the nominee has their eyes closed. It is a jump ball right now.
What does this even mean? He could run in 2040 and still win. Nobody knows the future.
Yes I'm in camp Stay-governor-for-several-terms-and-then-run-for-President.
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.
