DeSantis moves toward running again in 2028 – and draws ire from Trump’s inner circle
cnn ^ | Feb 26, 2024 | Steve Contorno, Alayna Treene

DeSantis has made a concerted effort to keep in touch with the people who supported his presidential campaign, including donors and leaders in the early nominating states. Those close to him say he is actively considering how best to maintain his national profile and influence, including potential endorsements in congressional races.

His recent moves appear distinctly aimed at keeping intact his political operation and his popularity with Republicans.

DeSantis, though, is intent on remaining a relevant figure in the GOP regardless of what happens to Trump. He has tested new strategies for growing his following, including posting self-recorded videos online where he opines on the political debate du jour or playfully features his young children.

It's getting obvious desanctus is still campaigning....and likely going to be as successful as he was in his active presidential campaign...

Especially since desantis has hired his successful presidential campaign team to advise him on how to govern florida, while still running a p.r. campaign for president.

Even today he can start standing up for the rights of J6 prisoners from Florida.

That is the right move. That is the smart move.

He needs to do it.

Let 2028 take care of itself. It’s utterly pointless to speculate.

Trump wants to run in 2028, 2032, 2036 and on and on until he gets his second term. Clearly he believes he’s going to lose in 2024 if he’s upset about a 2028 run for president.

You all may think twice about it when the choices are between Nikki and Liz.

When was the last time CNN reported anything accurately when it comes to Republicans?

Articles like this are written to stir the pot and gin up attacks within the Republican Party between Trump and Desantis. And it works.

It has long been obvious that you suffer from a serious case of DeSantis Derangement Syndrome.

The bridge he could’ve used to get him to 2028...succumbed to fire recently.

And it works.

Sure it "works" ... there are deep-state plants right here on this forum who are part of the anti-American cabal. You can tell who they are: they can't spell Gov. Ron DeSantis' name correctly, and they throw inane insults at him while adding nothing of value to the conversation. They claim to be "done with him" or to have "had it with him", but they only ever hated him so they're not really honest.

when desanctimonious is scheduling and making press conferences daily, it contradicts the narrative he isn’t still campaigning..

especially since he hired pushaw and several others to his Florida government staff.

desanctus supporters will say anything to keep promoting him....
