DeSantis will need Trump if he plans to run in 2028, but I bet Trump would back JD, assuming nothing happens between them before then.
If DeSantis is not in Trump’s good graces now, he never will be and appointing Lara Trump as US Sen. wouldn't help. It would also be irrelevant as far as the ’28 nomination is concerned.
LT would be a legitimate choice, just on the merits, but I feel like we need her at RNC right now. Anyway I’d be willing to bet it will be someone who endorsed DeSantis for President in 2023.

It’s a long way from here to ’28 but Vance has been under an intense spotlight every minute since July 16, and hasn’t faltered even once. All the GOP’s I’ve checked with these past 4 months give him A+ across the board. And even some of Dems — these are very left wing Dems, too — give grudging respect. The only dissenting opinion I’ve heard is from 1 guy whose politics are basically a mix of John McCain and Adam Kinzinger. I know he didn’t vote for Trump. Not sure if he voted for Harris.

Again: it’s a long way to go until 2028. We’ll see what happens. But just for now, I think Shapiro is their strongest horse. He seems able to communicate with normal people. In his political career he has been willing to cross swords with the teachers’ union (bold move for a Dem.) and has spoken out in support of Israel. Granted, I’m sure he won’t do things like that anymore. But still. If he gets the nomination he will pick someone who can campaign in Red states and at least not make things worse. He will not be bound to someone like Stacey Abrams or Pete Buttigieg.

True. But just because they have to doesn’t mean they will.
