Very, very possible that Kemp ends up as DeSantis' running mate should DeSantis win the nomination.

The GOPe will play a prominent role in DeSantis' decisions. Not because he is GOPe or they own him, but because they view him as a project; someone they think they can work with but want to keep reins on and leverage over. As Reagan was stuck with GHWB, DeSantis will very likely be stuck with a GOPe stool pigeon.

Kemp undoubtedly has a future in DC. The GOPe have big plans for him, he is one of their top prospects. McConnell has been establishing a close relationship with him over the past year.

Oh, Kemp is clearly positioning himself as the next senator from GA after his governorship. He will fit right in with the Thune/McConnell clan. I say Thune because Thune will be assuming the GOP senate leadership position after McConnell retires (IIRC in 2026).
