DeSantis has not announced an intent to run, but there has been wide speculation that he will.
Palin weighed in on Tuesday during an interview with Newsmax.
“DeSantis doesn’t need to [run],” Palin said. “I envision him as our president someday, but not right now.
“He should stay governor for a bit longer,” she continued. “He’s young, you know. He has decades ahead of him where he can be our president.”

Palin said that while a good debate in the primaries will be better for the party, she still believes Donald Trump will win.
“I’m all about healthy, competitive primaries,” Palin said. “That makes everybody debate more articulately and work harder and let the people know what [their] records are and visions for this country are. And so, I love healthy debate and competitive primaries.”
“But when you talk about the specific people, the individual people who are looking at putting their hat in the ring, … they got a lot of guts thinking they’re gonna go up against Trump,” she continued.
So far, Trump and neoconservative war hawk Nikki Haley are the only Republicans who have announced their campaigns for 2024.
