<p>Florida first lady Casey DeSantis indicated on Friday that she is considering launching a bid to replace her husband as the state&#8217;s next governor in 2026 when Governor Ron DeSantis will finish his final term in office.</p>
<p>Casey DeSantis made the remarks during National Review Institute’s Ideas Summit following weeks of speculation that she may run.</p>
<p>“Well, first of all, I mean, this guy’s the GOAT [Greatest Of All-Time],&#8221; she said, referring to her husband. &#8220;Like, honestly, everything that he says he’s gonna do, he does. And I’m just sitting here listening to him, and he makes it sound really easy. ‘Like, I did this, and I did this, and we did this, and now our voter registration is 1.2 million Republicans more than Democrats, and we did this, and we turned the vote,’ and all of this stuff.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Florida’s the free state of Florida because you’ve got the GOAT in the governor’s office because of one key thing: Having a backbone,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;And when you have the opportunity to stand up for what’s right, you’re courageous and you put yourself into the arena, and you fight like heck. And I’ll tell you what, I’ve been around politics, and I’ve seen a lot of people. Not a lot of people have a backbone like him.&#8221;</p>
<p>She said that the people she has seen get into political office often do so because &#8220;they wanna be somebody.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;They don’t wanna do good things, they don’t wanna get criticized,&#8221; she said. &#8220;They like the cocktail parties. You know, they think about what’s next on the next political rung in their career. Like the Founders never thought that politics should ever have been a career, right? You were supposed to go up and serve, and you come home, and you live under the laws that you pass.&#8221;</p>
<p>She warned that many of the victories that DeSantis scored for the conservative movement could be easily ruined if the wrong person were to wind up getting elected to be the state&#8217;s next governor.</p>
<p>&#8220;So it’s the long-winded answer of saying, you know, we’ll see,&#8221; she said on the matter of whether she will run for office. &#8220;We’ll see.&#8221;</p>
