Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis made headlines on the last day of 2023 after stating he had “categorically ruled out” the possibility of serving as Donald Trump’s vice president.
“I know Nikki Haley will not rule out being vice president because she spends a lot of money attacking me. So, is she trying to defeat former President Trump, or is she trying to be his vice president?
I’ve categorically ruled out being VP.
The remarks swiftly ignited a firestorm of commentary on social media, with users lambasting DeSantis.

btw, i’ve categorically ruled out driving a speedboat to australia to go opal mining, even though no one asked me ...
Why not Abbott?
Thankfully, this way not ready for prime time player Ron DeSantis is not going to be the nominee.
Texas needs him
desantis and his inept team of social media people are the ones that are pushing the idea that Trump is considering haley, to kill support for Trump.
That’s why desantis keeps pushing for Trump to say who he is considering for vp, and haley to say if she’s talked about it.
“Nobody Asked You”
So who exactly said this????
Hoft is being disingenuous.
And therein lies the problem. Trump has no real prospects for VP.
Oh well. Maybe Mike Pence will agree to another round.
So?
He’s a governor of Florida, he’s already got a job. I’ve been trying to figure out why he started campaigning for president. In the first place. I thought he left DC after his stint up on Capitol Hill and to me that kind of speaks to the fact that DC ain’t his kind of town and he wasn’t that happy living there.
The only other reason I can think of is that it got put on the honey-do list after the wife told him to.
Well here is a tin hat question. Did Trump know all about Ron prior to helping him get elected planning to use Rons backstabbing to his own advantage? 4D chess...
I'm sure some Vegas bookies have already taken bets on a Trump/DeSantis ticket in November.
I don’t think he could come up with this many idiotic fails on his own. His campaign staff must be the worst.
My opinion,(yeah,I know), is it will be a person not in the limelight. Any guesses??
I doubt it.
Like so many of Pres Trump’s picks, sadly, when they meet him, they say all the right things. Get their jobs and stab him and us in the back as much as they can. Perfect example of that is Mattis.
But, I will throw a small bone to DeSantis but it is also a YUGE negative....They approached him, fed him truck loads of BS, dropped 100s of millions of dollars on him, and told him that he could take on Pres Trump. All he had to do was watch a couple of YouTube clips of folks lining the roads to see Pres Trump roll by. Obviously he didn’t. So, the negative is....he’s dumb enough to believe the BS. He’s proven that he is gullible and easily manipulated. No Bueno.
It’s hard to imagine that the campaign still has anyone, doing anything. I guess it was the holidays and folks will hang on a little longer for those checks.
Like Trump would consider him. 😄
POTUS an VP can’t be from the same state, so yeah...
Meatball ran against MAGA and Trump. He can stuff those giant fake boots up his butt
John Quincy Adam’s did it! His fall was from the US presidency to a Mass US House representative.
Maybe DeSantis could do something even more astounding - get a private sector job!
Nah, he’ll never do that. Besides, those jobs all go to Democrats. 😋
