If Yeb was a heartbeat away from the presidency, Trump’s life wouldn’t be worth a plug nickel. The GOPe/worldist elitists would find a way to get rid of him.
You have a point - - but here’s the problem: there isn’t anyone Trump could pick the GOPe wouldn’t prefer.
If they would knock off Trump to get Yeb in they would knock off anyone else he would pick.
Maybe we need to drive the GOPe out of the party...rather than attempt to unify with them.
