President Donald Trump has not ruled out Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for a potential job in his Cabinet.
“Ron’s very good,” Trump told “Pod Force One” host Miranda Devine in an episode released on Wednesday, when asked if DeSantis (R-Fla.) would be considered for the U.S.
Attorney General position after Pam Bondi’s removal.
“People thought of different names.
There are some good names,” the president continued, though he noted that the term-limited governor “never talked about” the job.
Trump and DeSantis previously clashed as top rivals in the 2024 Republican presidential primary, during which Trump referred to the Sunshine State governor as “Ron DeSanctimonious.”
However, their relationship has seemed friendlier since Trump’s win, considering their shared values.
Trump told the New York Post DeSantis was “doing a very good job.”
“Ron’s good.
He’s a friend of mine.
He just named an airport after me,” he added.
“They named the Palm Beach International Airport the Donald J.
Trump International Airport.”
“That’s a great honor,” he added.”
However, the president signaled that he was in no rush to name a permanent nominee for the top Department of Justice (DOJ) spot, expressing a desire to focus on Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, Trump’s former personal attorney who took over the DOJ in Bondi’s absence.
“I wanted to see how he’s received … and he’s done a very good job,” Trump said of Blanche.
“There are a lot of great people,” President Trump said of his considerations for DOJ head.
“The Republican Party — we have great people.”
The comments come as Florida prepares for its upcoming August 18th primary election to determine which candidates will compete to succeed the term-limited DeSantis in November.
