I dont think Trump is the type to hide out. Lol
1- DJT Lawyer Joey Tacopina said on CNBC he won't hide:

2 - DeSantis can only delay briefly with tactics but has no real authority either way.

Trump has not “fled” from justice. He moved States. So this clause of the Constitution is not applicable. DeSantis could decline to extradite in this situation.
DeSantis cannot constitutionally be on the same ticket as Trump. POTUS and VP cannot be residents of the same state.
You are incorrect. There is nothing that stops the President and Vice President from being from the same state. This is a common misconception.
The Constitution states: “ The Electors shall meet in their respective states and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; ”
The restriction is that no elector can vote for a President and Vice President that are both from the same state as the elector. That means a Florida electoral college delegate could not vote for Trump for President and DeSantis for Vice President. Electors from all other states could vote for both of them.
The danger would be that Trump could win Florida for President but DeSantis would not win Florida for Vice President. Election coverage and procedures currently hide the fact that President and Vice President are elected independently, not as a pair.
The danger could be that Florida’s electoral votes are gone because they might vote for the VP and not Trump as well. It is a gamble you don’t take in rigged election times. In essence, you can be from the same state if you don’t care about losing electoral votes for at least one of you. I can’t think of a single state that has so few electoral votes that its a gamble worth taking.
Would Kamala suck up to the Maga king? In a fair election, Trump wins 80%+ of electoral votes
