See you in 2028, Ron DeSantis

With Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R-FL) presidential campaign ending, the obvious question is what comes next for him. The most likely answer is a 2028 presidential campaign.

It is impossible to know who will be in contention for the 2028 GOP nomination. When that race starts in 2027, three years will have passed. New GOP stars will be made in that time, ones whose names aren’t known now even by the most invested political pundits. No one knows who will be the front-runner in that race, but DeSantis’s numbers and the circumstances leading up to the race will likely leave him in the mix.
