Trump Floats Rubio, Kasich, Walker as Vice President Picks
Breitbart ^ | 004/11/2016 | by Alex Swoyer

Posted on 04/11/2016 9:09:35 PM PDT by Rusty0604

“Yes. I like Marco Rubio. Yeah. I could,” Trump told columnist Kirsten Powers about putting Rubio in his administration.

He was asked if Rubio was a potential vice president choice for him.

“There are people I have in mind in terms of vice president. I just haven’t told anybody names. … I do like Marco. I do like [John] Kasich. … I like [Scott] Walker actually in a lot of ways. I hit him very hard. … But I’ve always liked him. There are people I like, but I don’t think they like me because I have hit them hard,” Trump responded.

I really don’t get people who like Trump, but would abandon him over a VP pick. Talk about being spoiled....
the trump supporters that are falling out over this little bit of nothing were never really in it to begin with. they were supporting an idea that didn't really exist; an illusion, of sorts. an ideal that was a product of their imagination, and nothing more.

If nothing else I would like to see Walker as head of the NLRB.

No way Rubio or Walker would be Trumps VP. That would kill their career. I have asked a bunch of times and no Trump supporter can answer this.

Trump has never fundraised in his life for politics. He will not self finance general. How does he raise $1B, half from contributions under $2700 and the rest SuperPac money.

Ted Cruz still has people working in Ohio, Florida, all the key States. Trump has nobody. His current state organization sucks as witnessed by delegate fiasco on his part. How does he put an organization together. No way does Cruz let his guys go, he has been paying the data guys for four years, will pay them to 2020.

IIRC, Brewer is clueless or worse on social issues and no Einstein on the constitution either. Just sayin’.

On the flip side, I hated McCain but with Palin on the ticket it made my vote more palatable.

Heh, well, I don't either. But I'll do a few shots first to fortify my courage, then pull the lever for him in November if it keeps that leftist shrew out of office.

Then probably do another when I get home to wash away the aftertaste of my vote....

“If he wants Walker (the man we SHOULD have nominated for POTUS) I bet Walker is a big enough man to be courted with some grace and courtesy on The Donald’s part. Walker will enrage unions, Demonrats, pro-aborts, and just about everyone worth aggravating and bring in a boatload of votes. I would have to vote for a ticket including Walker as would many others who are skeptical of Trump. “

And Wisconsin democrats hate him enough that they might vote for the ticket just to get him out of Wisconsin.

That would be entertaining. Or Secretary of Labor.

That has to be the funniest thing I have ever read. Little Hands picks Little Marco. That will keep me chuckling for weeks.

That would be fun too but he can walk and chew gum at the same time, is a proven political master and is destined for more. Like everyone else, Walker is not perfect but, boy, he is damn close. AND he has vision.

Yes I like governor Martinez. Haley has made a few moves lately that make her my second choice out of the two.

Being a VP he wouldn’t have any power over immigration policy, but maybe the chamber of commerce crowd would approve.

So he has backed off Kanye ?
And just last week he said his VP needed like 25 years in Congress with good relations with them and the ability to get deals done.
So . . . That means Kasich. Or Harry Reid. Or Chuck Schumer.

It would be nice for him to pick his own VP, but Cruz screwed that up for him. Nasty creep he is.
