DeSantis Rejects Idea of Being Trump’s VP if Trump Wins Primary

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said this week that he is not interested in running as vice president on a presidential ticket with former President Donald Trump – if Trump were to win the 2024 Republican Party nomination.

DeSantis made the remarks on Tuesday during an appearance on the “Wisconsin Right Now” podcast when asked about the idea.

“I’m not a No. 2 guy,” DeSantis said during a podcast this week. “I think I’m a leader. Governor of Florida, I’ve been able to accomplish a lot. I think I probably could do more staying there than being V.P., which doesn’t really have any authority.”

The governor’s remarks come about a month and a half before the first Republican Party presidential debate is set to kick off.

So far, the top two leading candidates on the Republican side are Trump and DeSantis with former Vice President Mike Pence, former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) trailing in the single digits. There are several other candidates polling in the low single digits.
