Summary
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is delaying his decision to fill Marco Rubio’s Senate seat, vacated due to Rubio’s appointment as Secretary of State under Trump.
DeSantis is conducting a thorough vetting process and is not considering a placeholder or appointing himself.
Trump allies, including Lara Trump, are lobbying for her to take the seat, complicating DeSantis’ decision given their tense political history.
Other potential candidates include Florida officials like Lt. Gov. Jeanette Nuñez and Attorney General Ashley Moody. DeSantis’ decision could influence his 2028 presidential ambitions.
Trump’s gonna overthrow this moron.
The world would be so much better off if Trump’s ambitions were confined to Florida
Can we just…give him Florida and have him fuck off? Is that an option?
Cue the Bugs Bunny sawing off Florida gif…
