Is this referring to the fact that a President and VP candidate cannot be from the same state? Trump can just move again to New Jersey, or back to New York.
They can be from the same state, the rule is very narrow. From Article II of the Constitution:
“The electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for two persons, of whom one at least shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves.”
This would be perfect. With Kari Lake as DeSantis' VP, followed by 8 years of Lake Presidency to do clean up operations.
Except….how? Trump still lives in FL

Yep, that is what I was saying, but it only takes electors away…they can be from the same state.

Part of that was superseded by the 12th amendment, but they didn't take the part out about losing the votes.
