Is Ben Carson a possibility for Trump’s VO?

Posted on 11/30/2023 6:49:57 AM PST by Billie Bud

Read it on X/Twitter from a source called George? Anyhoo it reads like sources close to President Trump say he is considering Dr. Carson very strongly for VP.

Is this just a rumor or is it likely?

Carson would be a thousand times better than Pence.

Don’t think President Trump is going to be so diplomatic in his choices this time. I think he has a much more narrowed view of the swamp and a better idea of who is in it.

Trump needs a Voice Over?

“Hate the keyboard on my iPhone”

Dittos on that. I miss my Blackberry days where you had a real keyboard.

It's likely to attract even more comments the way it stands, excuse me, I'll have a VO and soda.

I like Carson. I think he’s pretty honest.
I even supported his decision to buy that table, because I know furniture needs to be replaced and he abusing the system.

However, as a politician, I think he’s an underperformer who could not make the arguements that need to be made. A cabinet position, especially that one that will be used to replace Obamacare would be more suitable.

A wise man never makes the same mistake twice.

I have always liked and largely respected Ben Carson, but I was disappointed when he tried to run for President. He wasn’t, and has never been Presidential material.

I think he would be, if he was loyal to the plans of whatever President he served under (which is his JOB as the VP, to execute the plans of the President and support him as long as those plans align with the guidelines of the Constitution)

I hope not. Carson is a good conservative, but he’s not a strong communicator. Too shy, verebral and by nature, very introberted. An articulate (thkugh stupid) Dem like Gavin Newsome woulf walk right over him, and likely control any debate.

Trump probably will go for somebody with sharp teeth, like Tucker.

Based on how they parodied Dr. Carson in 2016, I'm sure SNL would be very excited to have him as Trump's VP.

I am blessed. I still have a BlackBerry. A 2019 edition, one of the last.

Trump rewards loyalty, bigly! Carson has been a steadfast supporter of his former boss. They have both displayed mutual respect going back to the 2016 debate cycles.
