No way he's making a play for VP. Even DeSantis should know that Trump would never allow a candidate that threatened him (however ineffectively) to get the VP spot. And this time around, Trump doesn't need to feign moderation like he did with Pence. I suspect he goes with Kerry Lake as his VP, and DeSantis makes a play at AG (which is why we saw him fold tail and endorse Trump this week)
A push by some Florida Republicans to use taxpayer money to help pay for former President Donald Trump’s multiple legal battles quickly fell apart after Gov. Ron DeSantis threatened to veto the legislation.
