KEY POINTS
- â˘Ron DeSantis asked Trump for a job including AG, Secretary of Defense, or Supreme Court after their Miami lunch.
- â˘Trump dismissed Kristi Noem and Pam Bondi, naming Todd Blanche acting attorney general to pursue indictments in the 'Grand Conspiracy' case.
- â˘Trumpâs team cautions DeSantis might betray him if AG but remain open to other roles, while DeSantis maintains a friendly relationship.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, whose 2024 presidential fling with Trump ended like a Netflix rom-com without a sequel, is now reportedly begging for jobs in Trump's post-inauguration ETF: Attorney General, Secretary of Defense, or the Supreme Court. Trump, who dismissed Kristi Noem and Pam Bondi from Homeland Security and AG, is hedging bets with his acting AG Todd Blanche, who has 90 days to prove he can 'goon-mafia' Trumpâs enemies. The cringe lunch at Trump National Doral Golf Club in Miami led to Trump declaring, 'Ron was begging me to be AG.' Sources insist AG is fake news because DeSantis dreams biggerâCourt or War Secretaryâclaiming a 'father-son' vibe with Justice Clarence Thomas. Trumpâs camp warns DeSantis might stab Trump legally, but hey, for Defense or SCOTUS, maybe. Meanwhile, DeSantisâ spokesperson praised his 'great relationship' with Trump and their combined immigration law love fest. Politics: the only place where begging might land you a Supreme Court seat.
