Joni Ernst would also make an interesting choice. Discuss.

It will be Scott Walker.

This is a leak.

I sincerely hope you are entirely wrong. Trump said he wants someone who is familiar with deecee political machinery.

Walker has been very weak on illegals.

The Senate has shown itself to be a bordello and everyone claims they are just the piano player. No Senators, we have 2 still running, one just left and I might consider Rand Paul only on a good day. That rules out Joni.

Military man? Sure. West? I like him, enough depth? I don't know. I lot of Generals names being thrown around. My out of the box pick? Alan Mulally, former CEO of Ford, the turn around guy for Ford. Another outsider in a year of our yearning for one.

Joni Ernst is a great Senator and solid conservative. Just not ready for prime time IMO. This election will require a serious professional slinger.

I wondered about Scott Walker because he seemed to get out so early. He’s also been able to stand up to the left, repeatedly.

I say Chris Christie or Scott Walker. He said he’d want someone from inside who knew the ropes. He would also require a fighter - someone he admires.

Nope
He’s a lightweight military guy ( retired LTC is no VP) and a political loser
Sure he got gerrymandered but he still lost
By the way when did he ever even endorse trump,and go campaign for him when trump was taking heavy incoming ?
Trump is the outsider and now needs a loyal ethical insider who will work with him and for him to move the DC bureaucracy and congress into doing some very painful but necessary changes
West in no way is that guy
Va secretary maybe

Chris Christie is an awful suggestion.

You make some good points, but West HAS served in Congress and knows the enemy when he sees it. Trump would be wise to find a meaningful and visible job for him in his Administration.

West has the strength of character and moral integrity to do the job right.

As for Congress, he was targeted by the libs and there are questions about how much election fraud was launched against him.

He did have a chance to take on the “birther” issue, but he chickened out.

His strengths far outweigh his weaknesses, IMHO. He would be my choice.

Ain't gonna happen. But I WOULD like to see him as Army Secretary. That would really churn the O7+ politicians at the Pentagon that kicked him out. "Hi, remember me? I'm your boss now, mother*&^%$#!"

I agree. She is just a first time senator and does not have the experience in debates and the sneaky tricks pulled by MSM and Democrats.
