Palin tells Ron DeSantis to sit out 2024 presidential race.

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, who has close ties to former President Donald Trump, does not think Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida should run for president in 2024, but would support him if he made a White House bid in the future.
"DeSantis doesn’t need to [run]. I envision him as our president someday but not right now," Palin told Newsmax host Eric Bolling. "He should stay governor for a bit longer. He’s young, you know. He has decades ahead of him where he can be our president."
Palin said she believes Trump, who endorsed her midterm campaign, has the best chance at winning the GOP nomination.
"When you talk about the specific people, the individual people who are looking at putting their hat in the ring… they got a lot of guts thinking they’re gonna go up against Trump," she told the outlet.
Palin also dropped hints about who Trump should pick as his running mate next cycle.
"Trump needs to choose somebody who, like him, has nothing to lose. What more can they do to that person personally or verbal attacks or anything else on family?" she said. "That person has been through the wringer, so they know what they're getting into. And that person then can just focus on doing what's right for the people."

The Florida governor recently hinted at a run when asked if he would be entering into the race after former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley launched her campaign, telling the reporter "wouldn't you like to know."

like you, Sarah Palin?
Click the link. That was exactly the question Bolling followed up with:

When Bolling asked if she was describing herself as a potential candidate for the vice presidency, Palin said "not necessarily," while laughing.

his profile will never be higher than it is now.

Palin has lost several elections now. She really has no standing to lecture anyone.

Maybe so but the risk are very high because he could lose the nomination to Trump (which is probable) and damage his reputation as Florida governor and the state reps that will go out on a limb and vote to make Ron an exception to run for federal office as governor of Florida (which is currently illegal).
The alternative is to finish up his term in Florida and coast into the 2028 nomination with ease, with a HIGHER profile.

What about Carpe diem?

She is right. Nothing good will come from a bruising primary with Trump.

The McCain / Palin ticket was one of the worst campaigns in recent history. Makes Romney/Ryan look strong.

Those that deny competition in anything are just plain scared of losing.
Use any argument you like but its the truth. Scared of losing.

Except DeSantis is the best chance for GOP victory in the general.

How would this damage his reputation?

A majority of republican voters will figure this out.

If I am looking for savvy political commentary and advice, the VERY first name that pops into my mind is Sarah Palin.

What is your timeframe for this competitive game? Ron is young. He has a lot of time.
