I've said it before, when DeSantis first declared his intent to run as President. It was a bad move. He was the most popular governor in the US, he'd pushed great policies, he had the support of most Republicans. Now look at him. He should have publicly supported Trump, continued being a great governor instead of completely losing his focus on his job, sat this one out, and run in 4 years with the full support of the entire Trump base. By choosing otherwise, his future political career is now at risk. He will not win the nomination, and he should have quit weeks ago, or even long before. Did he really just ignore the letter from his colleagues telling him to get back to work at the public service job he was nominated for?
I think that's fair, but imagine Desantis as AG. If Trump is smart he will reconcile and use Desantis where he's good.
If DeSantis is smart, he'll try to reconcile with Trump and he'll provide the people a reason explaining why he was so hesitant to discredit the obviously bogus accusations levied against Trump. I think that comes before giving him any official position.
Also, although I'm not 100% on the specifics, isn't DeSantis still going to technically be Governor of Florida for several months after the presidential election? He should finish that term before he becomes AG, at least. It's what the people voted for.
What accusations has he been hesitant to discredit? I've always heard him calling out the legal attacks on Trump as being BS and saying he wouldn't let the state of Florida do that against him.
After all the attacks from Trump he'd seem like a pussy ala Ted Cruz. I think it would be smarter to say attacks from both sides have hurt our party and our chances to take America back- ask Trump if he's willing to let bygones be bygones, bury the hatchet and move forward since they have more in common than differences.
He refused to say whether he would pardon Trump. "If the facts fit" or something like that. Lawyer speak.
Don't disagree. Losing him in Florida would hurt, but we need someone who is going to come out swinging for AG. Tough call to make
AG seems like a big step down from Florida gov, is it not? I don't think it would be politically smart for Ron to take that position.
Agree with Trump needing to reconcile, problem is his personality is against that kind of thing. It's especially lame since Trump is whooping everyone in the polls combined so it's not even a tight race where you could justify the attacks as somehow being politically necessary. I think he could do it without losing too much face if he blamed his competitive nature, say something like "You know me, I love winning and I fight like hell because I know you need a tough fighter to stand up for you. But this fight with Ron isn't going to help you, the forgotten Americans, so we need to stop and focus on our real enemy."
AG moves him to national stage rather than just Florida Man. A step up in prestige and power for sure.
AG would be in charge of the FBI, incumbent Garland.
