Ron DeSantis still wants to be president. And he wonโt let JD Vance stand in his way.
Even after the Florida governorโs presidential campaign crashed and burned, those close to the governor expect him to mount another bid for the White House. The Ohio senatorโs elevation as former President Donald Trumpโs running mate complicates DeSantisโ political future, should the GOP ticket win in November and Vance inherits the support of the Trump wing of the GOP.
DeSantis could face an uphill battle if he wants to run against Vance, several prominent Republicans said. The two have fairly similar biographies: Vance is 40 โ nearly six years younger than the Florida governor โ and also has a law degree from an Ivy League school, served in the military and has a photogenic wife and three young kids. The difference would be the platform: In 2028, Vance could be vice president, while DeSantis would be two years out of office.
But allies of the governor say he is undeterred. โJD Vance being vice president does not change Ron DeSantisโ calculus for 2028 one way or the other,โ said a Republican consultant and DeSantis supporter who was granted anonymity to speak freely.

He has a fundamental misunderstanding of what โindependent judiciaryโ means. It is not one that has been bought.
