She's already proven to be MAGA. Right now, she is proving her loyalty to Trump. In her first days in office, she will prove that she keeps her promises by following through with the declaration of invasion as well as election reform.
She'll be seen as the female equivalent to Trump. It will be her set up to follow him in 2028.
DeSantis will ruin himself if he runs against Trump. That won't be forgotten. He'll never regain that lost ground.
There is room for both. Florida is grateful for RDS as FLGov these last few years: he is a welcome and earned relief from the Deepstate Puppets of Jeb Bush then Charlie Crist. each for 8 years and those two opened the borders and screwed American citizens HARD! Florida is happy to Ron as Governor. He's the best Governor in the Country so far. Don't start infighting - we need to stay together.
Ron performs because he wants something bigger. I'll take it but unwont translate that into voting for him as president. Trump himself will have to endorse him.
