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.
There is no way that yes electoral delegates would choose to vote for the VP over the POTUS in that situation. Is that a theoretical possibility? Yes. Is it remotely realistic? No.
Either way, my point was that the statement “DeSantis cannot constitutionally be on the same ticket as Trump.” Is simply not true and a misunderstanding of the Constitution. I believe it is important to not spread misinformation about the Constitution, intentionally or otherwise.
