Anyone with half a brain should understand that Paul Ryan would never, ever back a politician that wasn’t bought and paid for by the Republican establishment.
In fact, Mitch McConnell was behind DeSantis doing so:

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Tuesday indicated he liked Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' controversial stunt that sent 48 migrants to Martha's Vineyard last week under what several of the migrants and immigration attorneys have said were false pretenses.
"I personally thought it was a good idea," he said Tuesday afternoon. "But if you added up all of the (immigrants) who've been taken to Chicago or Washington or Martha's Vineyard, it would be fewer than people down in Texas have to deal with on a daily basis."
Why would the establishment care so long as he can be persuaded to back amnesty for illegals when he gets in office?
