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.
“Trump will run and pair up with a Kristi Noem (No) or a Nikki Haley (absolutely NO) or a Tim Scott (NO).”
WTF are you talking about? Trump did NOT lose to Biden!
That would be a powerful ticket!
Robert Barnes is lying and saying outrageous things to be the first one to say them. It is how the Internet personas work: Say wild crap then claim to have been in-the-know if the crap comes true.
Yeah, that’s why Trump is on Air Force One.
Thank you for that comment!!
Agree wholeheartedly!
I also regard this as fake news. DeSantis is surely waiting, as are many possible 2024 Trump opponents, to see how the Jan6 hearing report is dealt with by DOJ etc..
Trump/CeSantis ticket would be ideal. Trump is a one term guy and this would be a set up for DeSantis in 2028. Trump could give him lots of room to make a name outside the Red States. Then DeSantis could pick Eric Trump as his VP. For his set up for his run in 2038.
Yeah pairing up with any one of those three losers will prove that Trump learned absolutely nothing about staffing his administration the first time around.
DeSantis will be out of office in 2026 and there will be two years for him to be forgotten by 2028. Becoming DJT’s VP is not in DeSantis’ best interest either. He needs to weigh that and challenging DJT for the nomination in 2024 may be the best preparation for 2028 (or 2024).
This thread’s full of trolls.
Please don’t feed the trolls.
Having DeSantis as VP would be an insurance policy for Trump. It would prevent the Democrats from trying to remove Trump from office. DeSantis as President would be their worst nightmare.
I’m shocked that so few people on FR are familiar with Robert Barnes. Currently he is the lawyer for a whistleblower from Pfizer. He and Viva Frei have a live stream, Viva Barnes.Law.Local.com. You have heard of Viva Frei.
Liar
Perfect response. DUmmies are hoping Liz Cheney would run as 3rd party nominee.
I don’t believe this for a minute. Trump doesn’t need Desantis to win in 2024. But, if Desantis plays his cards right he could succeed President Trump. A possible 12 years of commonsense policies are the most beneficial scenario for our country.
Considering the current state of affairs it will take at least that long to right this faltering ship.
BS. President Trump not only doesn’t need Desantis, but it would also do him no good Electorally to make such a pick.
Far more beneficial would be for President Trump to select a strong Conservative woman warrior along the lines of Candice Owens. Such a VP selection would benefit him immeasurably more than a Desantis pick for VP.
You mean like 2nd paragraph said he did?
Is that you, Ann Coulter?
The second fiddle should be the one to move.
Dude, why don't you just issue your OPUS and move on?
Great answer, flaglady!!!!!
Reading your post felt REALLY GOOD.
