Summary
Trump is considering Florida Governor Ron DeSantis as a replacement for embattled defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth, according to sources.
Hegseth faces allegations of sexual misconduct, financial mismanagement, intoxication, and a hostile work environment, which have led to doubts among Senate Republicans about his confirmation.
DeSantis, who previously ran against Trump for the Republican presidential nomination, has been urged by donors and advisers to reconcile with Trump for the benefit of the Republican Party.
I honestly can’t tell if that would be slightly better or significantly worse.
The turd that burns twice as bright stinks half as long.
More effective, in all that entails.
