Ohio Republican Gov. Mike DeWine recently traveled to Mar-a-Lago in Florida to meet with Trump administration officials regarding his impending appointment of a new Senator to replace Vice President-elect J.D. Vance.

A spokesperson for DeWine’s office responded to the Washington Examiner’s request for comment on reports that DeWine met with President-elect Donald Trump and Vance by saying that they would not confirm with whom the Buckeye state governor met or other details of the deliberations.

DeWine’s office also told the Washington Examiner that the Florida trip occurred “in the last two weeks” but did not provide a date.

This will be interesting. I have little use for DeWine, but it would be great if he appointed an actual conservative.

Trump took Vivek out of contention for that spot.  I liked him for Senator, but it's clear he can do a lot more as Elon's partner in DOGE.  So who else?
