The Trump team has been begging DeSantis to involve himself in the potential Trump arrest saga, claiming that the governor is doing nothing to protect the former president.
Today, DeSantis was asked about the possibility of Trump being arrested and gave this answer.
(Here's the YouTube version from WPTV that has been disabled for playback on other sites.)
DeSantis refuses to get involved with the details of the Trump case, probably a wise move, but he doesn't shy away from calling out the New York DA and the obvious political nature of Trump's case.
But don't miss that shot he took at Trump at the 0:57 mark:
"Look, I don't know what goes into paying hush money to a porn star to secure silence..."

Yeah, that was a jab.
DeSantis also, wisely, reminds us that he's the only guy in America to actually remove a Soros DA.
DeSantis won't get in the dirt with Trump (not yet at least), but he isn't leaving him out to dry either. People from all sides are probably going to interpret this radically differently.
Have we mentioned that the 2024 election is going to be absolutely insane?
