Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis look to be locked in a battle for the Republican presidential nomination.
In the election, both candidates are attempting a checkmate move.
By surprising everyone by naming a well-known Republican lady as his vice presidential pick, Ron DeSantis gives his campaign a huge boost.
By claiming that he already has a running partner in mind, DeSantis’ campaign is gaining ground and presenting him as the likely nominee.
The leak not only benefited DeSantis’ campaign, but it also lends credence to the notion that many GOP voters want to go on with Trump’s policies while keeping their distance from the president-elect.
Insiders close to the DeSantis campaign confirm his audacious move to select former Trump press secretary and governor of Arkansas Sarah Huckabee Sanders as his running mate. This action is a calculated jab at former President Trump.
“He really only has one strong choice: Sarah,” a source for the DeSantis campaign informed RadarOnline.com. “He is desperate to lock up his running mate before he makes his formal announcement. He would announce his VP candidate very soon afterward.”
According to the DeSantis campaign, nominating Huckabee Sanders, the nation’s youngest governor, would support DeSantis’ message that America should move on from the Trump administration and Joe Biden’s leadership.
“He thinks it will be a one-two punch and Republicans will be hard-pressed to look past a united front, especially if it is him and Sarah,” the source added.
Despite his help in opening up the Arkansas primary for Huckabee Sanders, she has not backed Donald Trump for president.

“I love the President, have a great relationship with him. I know our country would be infinitely better off if he was in office right now instead of Joe Biden but right now my focus isn’t 2024,” stated Huckabee Sanders.
Huckabee Sanders may believe that DeSantis is the GOP’s future, according to sources close to him, but given Trump’s current lead in the primary polls, she might be best served to wait for now.
“Part of her wants to embrace the new GOP and she believes DeSantis is the man,” the insider claimed. “But she is worried about Trump’s influence and the results of recent polls only shows that. The Governor is keeping her powder dry.”
If Sarah Huckabee Sanders supports DeSantis, the political world might experience a major shock.
Sanders would seem to be a natural supporter of the former president given her solid conservative background and dedication to Donald Trump. She left his government, but she never publicly criticized him.
DeSantis would fervently want her support because it would significantly advance his political aspirations.
Will she fall for their plan to win her over using the Vice President’s promise?
