As turnover within the Trump Administration continues, a former primary rival is reportedly positioning himself to take advantage.
Axiosreportedon Tuesday that President Trump has told some of his closest advisers and friends that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is “begging” for a job in the president’s administration.
As TGP readers know, DeSantis will be out of job come January because his second term as governor will expire and he is limited to just those two terms.
According to sources Axios spoke with, one of these positions is U.S. Attorney General.
“Ron was begging me to be AG,” Trump allegedly told one confidant.
Trump appears to be open to making DeSantis America’s top law enforcement official, but wants to give acting Attorney General Todd Blanche a shot first.
PerAxios, the President wants Blanche to start actually indicting the people who tried to destroy his life with bogus lawfare cases. This is an area where former Attorney General Pam Bondi came up short.
“Todd has about 90 days to show what he can do,” an adviser told Axios.
But DeSantis appears to prefer two other positions to U.S. Attorney General: Secretary of War and U.S. Supreme Court Justice.
Before Trump ultimately selected Pete Hegseth to run the War Department, he thought about appointing DeSantis instead.
