Timing is everything, and the timing here is simultaneously transparent and inappropriate.

Today the Florida Senate scheduled a rule change committee vote of the “Resign to Run” rule for next Tuesday, April 4, 2023 at 2:00pm.   The intent of the rule change is almost certainly to permit Governor Ron DeSantis to formally announce his 2024 candidacy without having to resign his job as governor.

Irony: Florida Rule change scheduled today, same date as Trump indictment announced. Florida Rule change vote scheduled Tuesday 4/4/23, same date as Trump traveling to Manhattan for his arraignment.
