2) They believe they have the books cooked in Florida guaranteeing a victory. With the shenanigans going on the state that is indeed possible. with DeSantis in power I can easily see a systemic failure coming up that will give the state to Florida. I would not put it past DeSantis to appoint faithless electors to represent Florida in the Electoral College and guarantee the delivery of the state to Trump, regardless of the popular vote in Florida.

I would lean to the faithless elector scenario as this has been floated a number of times, and DeSantis is a big enough ######bag to follow this route. That would mean Trump can pour money into Pennsylvania and Ohio, his only path to victory and secure the EC votes that would not come from Republican controlled states who would follow through on the appointment of faithless electors.
