Today, Robert Barnes came out and said the Trump/DeSantis ticket is already decided. I've read comments from people that the president and VP cannot be from the same state. That is not true, however, there is an issue with electoral votes under a scenario like this. I read this same situation arose with Bush/Cheney as they were both living in TX at the time. Right before the election, Cheney moved back to Wyoming and resolved the issue.
Below is an article that shows Trump moved to NJ. This sure seems like he's preparing to negate the problem of both candidates being from Florida.

Trump is leaving Florida for the summer, Insider has learned. Last year, he left Mar-a-Lago on Mother's Day.

Former President Donald Trump is leaving Florida to avoid the swampy summer months.
Trump left his beachside Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach and as of Friday is at his golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey, according to a Republican source close to the former president who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Before leaving, Trump did a TV interview from Mar-a-Lago on Thursday evening with the Miami Spanish-language station MegaTV. He's leaving South Florida just as the area is facing a tropical storm warning throughout the weekend.
Trump's move north means much of the Republican political braintrust will follow. GOP political hopefuls have flocked to Mar-a-Lago, holding fundraisers and other events there as they hope to get some face time with Trump and perhaps even land a coveted endorsement.
Now, Bedminster will become the new go-to spot for the GOP.
What ever you say, Pierre Delecto.
oh, I’m sure YOU would know, being a lefty and all
And rooting for Nikki Haley.
exactly. creepy lefty crap on FR. Makes me sick.
Is DeSantis’s wife still sick?
Trump won’t win. DeSantis wouldn’t tarnish his rep running with Trump.
Lots of folks on FR bow for Trump, but they don’t understand National, electoral politics.
The GOP has a once in a generation opportunity to change the direction of the country…and Freepers want to elect a guy who lost to Biden. That makes zero electoral sense.
I guarantee Trump has more energy than you’ll ever have.
As you are delusional. So, we both have issues.
You contradicted yourself.
And Obama was 48 first time he got in.
Could be fake news. But what do the freepers think about the possibility? I like it, two don’t take crap canidates at the same time , oh my, the heads would be EXPLODING 24/7. Just my humble opinion.
you are seriously delusional. Trump did NOT lose to Biden; the wicked left stole the election as that’s the only way they “win” anything. Stealing.
And yet YOU know that DeSantis is interested in being VP. What's your source for that? Your dazzling intellect? Burning bush? Your own backside?
I’m a fan of Trump, based on his merits.
I don’t care about his tweets or his combative attitude towards journalists.
Those who do care about his tweets or his combative attitude are quite willing to sell out their fellow American into slavery, just so they can have the appearance of a statesman for a PResident.
Those people have historically been the enablers of the liberals who have done so much evil in history.
Those people disgust me.
Not Nikki Haley or Kristi Noem, I think I’d he picks a woman it will be Elise Stepanek.
What is your experience in national politics?
Fake news...I don’t believe Trump will run.
I should point out that I don't think any of the three are serious possibilities. I threw them out there as examples; people who want to be president but know that they don't have the visibility or the chops to just declare and run. Being VP is the only shot they would have, and it's be a slim chance at best.
Trump moving to New Jersey, the state with the highest taxes in the country?
I seriously doubt it.
“Trump will run and pair up with a Kristi Noem or a Nikki Haley”
Trump better not pick either of them if wants back in the White House.
They aren’t Presidential material for one and they aren’t tough enough to be a VP attack dog.
Desantis is our guy. Trump has served us well. Now he needs to step aside.
“Desantis is our guy. Trump has served us well. Now he needs to step aside.”
Nope,
The little bull from Florida will have to win the nomination in 2024.
I can’t wait......pretty please.....run DeSantis.....run.
