TALLAHASSEE — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, whose bid for president ended following a distant second place finish in Iowa, is now poised to have a speaking slot on the main stage at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee next week.

DeSantis, once seen as a rising conservative star, was initially not scheduled to have a main stage speaking slot during the weeklong celebration of former President Donald Trump, three people familiar with convention plans but not authorized to speak publicly told POLITICO on Tuesday. Two of those people told POLITICO that, as of Wednesday morning, the plans had changed and DeSantis is now in the mix for a spot.

Meatball Ron has been quiet lately.

The graphics list the speakers. Some are great, I'm sure, but there are real duds - especially WV Gov. Jim Justice and "Babydog," his bulldog.

Interesting that you would degrade one of the most conservative governors we have.

No worries.  You need not come to FL.  FL is reserved for people who want to escape the DC establishment and liberal states.

I wonder if Trump's GOPe delegates will boo DeSantis like they did Ted Cruz in 2016.

The GOP Civil War is over, and Trump has won.
