against the DeSantis administration to the local district attorney over the transport of those migrants out of Texas.DeSantis has projected confidence in a number of these cases, just as Trump has with his own legal troubles. And just as Trump has his own judicial appointees throughout the federal judiciary, surely hoping he can count on them for loyalty—
in the documents case in south Florida is a prime example—DeSantis has loyalists in the Florida Supreme Court he personally packed. And the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11Circuit in Atlanta, where DeSantis has had to show up frequently, is known for its conservative bent. But the governor has already seen a number of setbacks in many cases. More distractingly, a number of the lawsuits look likely to extend well into the formal Republican primary calendar and drag on into the general 2024 election, if DeSantis does indeed make it that far.So far, the biggest problem posed by DeSantis’ myriad legal troubles is that of time.
