DeSantis suuuuure is building a conservative resumé these days, eh?

In the last two days, Ron DeSantis sought a grand jury to investigate Covid-19 vaccines, questioned a new federal law protecting same-sex marriages and won a legislative victory that will hit the pocket books of lawyers.

And there will be more steps by DeSantis to lure conservatives to his side in the coming weeks and months ahead. There are already rumblings that state lawmakers will hold special legislative sessions between now and March to tackle issues such as guns and abortion.

Though he has yet to announce his presidential intentions, the moves this week continue the momentum DeSantis built after the Florida governor won reelection by roughly 20 points last month — necessary actions to ensure he doesn’t appear to peak too early. Put it all together and DeSantis will have a list of accomplishments to win over Republican voters if he announces his candidacy sometime in late spring, all while former President Donald Trump struggles to capture the same excitement as he did in 2016.

“Considering how relentless he is for the conservative cause, I can’t imagine a scenario where he ever lets off the gas,” said Christian Ziegler, the vice chair of the Republican Party of Florida. “But I especially cannot imagine him holding back after the voters sent him a crystal clear message in November that they want more — not less — of his conservative agenda.”
