LARA TRUMP: If I’m able to serve, I’d like to serve the folks of Florida. That is my dwelling state now and has been for 3 years.
That is the place Eric and I reside, and to really have that chance could be unimaginable. Nobody is aware of the America First agenda or the targets of Donald Trump within the coming 4 years.
So, if I’m requested, I’d love to think about it, however I’ve but to have a dialog with Governor DeSantis. So we should see.
Whereas DeSantis will finally make the ultimate name, he can do far worse than appointing a robust, clever conservative like Lara Trump. America definitely doesn’t have to fret about her going wobbly like so many present GOP senators.
