Even after Vivek’s move was revealed, Buzzfeed is worth less than 10% of what it was a few years ago.

Trump is known for his wild cards.

Can you point to Trump excluding him from consideration?

Hasn’t been on the recent supposed shortlists I’ve seen online and somewhere, somehow had seen reported that he wasn’t being considered.

Buzzfeed crashed and burned last year. They cut their News Section and laid off the entire news staff. There's really not much left.

I feel as if I am responding to a toddler, needing to suggest that you use your words.

Feels more like Huffington Post II.
She was supposed to be a Republican too.

Sounds smart to me. A smaller version of Musk buying Twitter.

I don’t respond to “prove it” demands, most especially from anyone so annoying as to repeatedly post cartoons.

Possible. But I havenโ€™t seen it. And of course Trump will sometimes put perceived loyalty over a good choice.

Why is anyone surprised by this?

Vivek is a complete fraud, and always has been.

Snake Oil doesn’t begin to describe this con man.

From your link. Last month, Trump responded positively during a Fox News town hall when asked whether Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii), South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, Ramaswamy, Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis were on a โ€œshort listโ€ of potential running mates.

Right. The story was written a month later, reporting that Vivek was no longer under consideration for veep, but would likely serve in the administration.
