Have they taken a look at how DeSantis is doing these days in Florida. He aint exactly in the running for Man of the Year.

(12,093 posts)Under the 12th Amendment, the presidential and vice-presidential nominees run as a pair. Pence will be nominated as VP this month. He cant be replaced as a political ploy.
In addition, electors cant vote for a Pres and Vice President candidate who are both from their state. That would mean the automatic loss of Florida, which Trump cant afford.
Finally, I dont think DeSantis is all that popular. What would be the point?
