LITTLE ROCK,Ark.--Donald Trump said today he is possibly considering Senator Tom Cotton for a running mate or a top position in his administration.

In an interview today with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt, the host suggested Trump pick either Senator Cotton or New Jersey Governor Chris Christie as his running mate.

Trump said he can't reveal his thinking in considering his VEEP pick, but had positive things to say about Arkansas' junior senator.

"I've gotten very good, you know, very good statements from Senator Cotton, who is a, you know, who I know, whose parents I know and met," Trump said. "I think that he is a very talented guy. He's also very popular. He's a very popular person. So these are two names that I have high on the list for something at least, that I can tell you."

Hewitt cited Cotton's military experience as an asset to Trump's campaign

Sessions and Gingrich are too old. Palin has her own family issues these days. These three better suited as Cabinet members (Newt as President’s Chief of Staff).

No Washington Republicans. Everyone in office in the Uniparty is compromised or they would not be there.

Don't stop the movement. After Trump, then what? Back to business as usual?

No more professional politicians. Any elected Republican in D.C. owes his loyalty to the Uniparty and will stand with Congress, not Trump, when it gets down to it.

He was THE ONLY SENATOR TO NOT VOTE “YES” FOR THE CORKER AMENDMENT. CRUZ DID!


Yes, that is impressive, and he has not been there that long—perhaps he is not corrupted—or can be rehabilitated in any areas;)

Wonder how he voted on trade deals and his position on immigration?

Are people on here aware that Tom Cotton was at that meeting on the island off the coast of Georgia to stop Trump? Well - he was. So, NO, to him and HE** NO to Mia Love.


Ugh did not know that. Shame, I had high hopes for him.

IF Tom Cotton supports TTP, I don’t support Tom Cotton.

The only thing that dissuades me from agreeing about sessions is that Trump would want someone doing enough to continue 8 more years of his administration.

While that may not be "prime", when compared to what we've been suffering, it isn't issue enough for me to waver if Sessions gets the nod.

GO TRUMP and _____________ !!!

Sessions doesn’t seem like he’s the guy. He’s a loyal Trump guy, but don’t think he for VP.

Don’t know, but I agree, it’s someone who’s been there with him, that’s why I’m thinking Chris Christie.

In January 2017 Jupter begins retrograde motion in Virgo’s “womb”. Over the next nine months, Venus, Mercury, and Mars line up to add to the nine stars of Leo to form a garland of twelve stars over her head. On September 23-24, 2017 the Sun is at Virgo’s shoulders clothing her and the Moon is at her feet and Jupiter has been “born”. I have run Stellarium back 6000 years and ahead 2000 years and this is the only time this formation occurs.

Did the writer write this crap or did Trump say it?

“I’ve gotten very good, you know, very good statements from Senator Cotton, who is a, you know, who I know, whose parents I know and met,” Trump said. “I think that he is a very talented guy. He’s also very popular. He’s a very popular person. So these are two names that I have high on the list for something at least, that I can tell you.”

One of the worse uses of the English language for a college educated man.

Yes on Cotton, H! NO! on Christie who sticks his finger in the wind like McNasty to LIBTARD.

Trump is most likely throwing out hints about Cotton to distract the MSM from his real choice. Trump is never going to reveal his VP choice until the GOP convention.

My first choice is Governor of NJ, Chris Christie. Why? Because he was the first well known republican to endorse Trump. That took lot of guts. And Christie has guts by thee bushel basket. He can be the most NON-PC gutsy spokesman and campaigner for Trump between convention and November 8th.

Christie’s previous views and stands on issues do not matter because the bossman Trump will always prevail & lead.

Here are the details.

Revelation Chapter 12:
1 Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars.
2 Then being with child, she cried out in labor and in pain to give birth.

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 1193). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

Previous Bible commentators have taken this as a symbolic vision about Israel (Mary) giving birth to Jesus, and marking the start of the 3 1/2 year Great Tribulation.
However, since “knowledge had increased”, we can use star charting programs such as Stellarium to see that this could be a literal “great sign” in heaven.

The constellation “Virgo”, the Virgin, has always been identified with Mary the Mother of Jesus. The nine stars of Leo, the Lion (of Judah), form a “garland” above her head.
Jupiter has always been identified as the “King” star. It is striped (by His stripes we are healed) and has a large, red spot (they pierced His side).

Here is the sequence of events regarding the Sun, Moon, Jupiter, Virgo, Leo, Mercury, Mars and Venus

Mon, 21 November 2016 = 20th of Cheshvan, 5777
Jupiter enters Virgo crossing line from Spica to Porrima

Sat, 28 January 2017 = 1st of Sh’vat, 5777
Jupiter retrograde motion begins inside Virgo. “Gestation” begins??

Sat, 10 June 2017 = 16th of Sivan, 5777
Jupiter prograde motion resumes inside Virgo

Thu, 17 August 2017 = 25th of Av, 5777
Total Solar eclipse across America (from Portland to Charleston)

Sun, 10 September 2017 = 19th of Elul, 5777
Jupiter crosses Heze — Spica line. Virgin gives birth? Conjunction Regulus and Mercury

Wed, 20 September 2017 = 29th of Elul, 5777
New Moon, Venus — Regulus conjunction

Sun, 24 September 2017 = 4th of Tishrei, 5778
Sun at Virgo’s shoulders (clothed), the Moon is at her feet, Mercury, Mars, Venus are added to Leo’s nine stars as Virgo’s 12-star ‘garland’

The great sign in the heaven is complete. This formation has not happened in the past 6000 years and won’t happen again for at least another 2000 years.

Luke 21
25 “And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring;
26 “men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
27 “Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 “Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.”

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 1023). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

Graphic says 23 September 2017, as it depends on where you say Virgo’s feet are. Besides, no one knows the day or the hour.

I don’t know for sure if Daniel’s 70th week has started. Sir Issac Newton’s calculation, which required Israel to be back in the land with control of Jerusalem (June 1967) worked out to September 2015. We don’t know if the Anti-Christ confirmed a seven year treaty back then, but it is possible. The colors of the Four Horsemen are White, Red, Black, and, while it is translated as “Pale”, the Greek can be translated as “Green”. These are the colors of the Islamic Nations that are going up against Israel.

The Revelation 12:1-2 Great Sign in the Heavens if September 23-24, 2017, so that would be two years into the Seventieth Week. The Revelation 12:3-4 sign is no where to be seen. However, there are reports of perturbations in the Cassini spacecraft orbit around Saturn, so the “great, fiery red dragon, may be out there as a brown dwarf, which would explain why the Vatican is operating an infrared telescope, called Project Lucifer, here in Arizona.

While there are folks who think that the “called out ones”, usually called the Church, will escape the entire Seventh Week, as I read it we are only offered escape from the final 3 1/2 years if we are counted as worthy, or just before the Anit-Christ is finally revealed, which ever comes first.

So we could very well be in the first half of the Tribulation, or Time of Jacobs Trouble. The thing with Bible Prophecy is that you only really know, for sure, after the event has happened.

So read your Bible and Pray! Do what the Holy Spirit leads you to do in this world, but don’t be too attached to it! Maranatha!

Your very welcome! The next two verses deal with another sign in the heavens that is not in the current star tracking software. If the first sign is literal, then the second is probably literal as well. This is why the Vatican is funding an infrared telescope, that used to be called Project Lucifer, and is now just called Luci, in Arizona.

Revelation 12
3 And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads.
4 His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born.
