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?

And other then being cheated out of the governorship, what’s her qualification? She has NO experience in successfully running an organization of any size. She will be at the mercy of her advisors! If you say her campaign, well she lost. She also hasn’t won any of her court challenges. Yes, I know it was stacked against her. But optics in politics are everything! All the casual voter will think about is she lost! Twice! Anyway, citing running a campaign as a qualification for high office is using the Obama standard! I remember Rats telling me that’s why Obama was qualified for POTUS. Remember VP must be capable at a moment’s notice of picking up the reigns of POTUS. At least Dr Carson ran a hospital surgical department.

I’d love to see Dr. Carson lead a closure and transformation of the DoE.

We need a proven swamp-fighter, not a nice guy.

At least you didn’t hit the B instead of V also. 🤣

Who needs a man with integrity like Carson when we have a billionaire narcissist who calls opponents “Birdbrain” and “Desanctimonious”?

I like Ben Carson in many ways, but would prefer a V.P. who has a stronger voice.

VP.

He’d be a fine choice.

Accomplished in real life, non-politician servant.

But he would immediately get the Clarence Thomas treatment by the racist democRats.

So? If we let that scare us we effectively give those Rats veto power.

PENCE WAS A GOOD VP up until January 6th. He was good soldier and always propped Trump up. Let’s not rewrite history.

Carson is a good man. He was not ready to be president in 2016, but he was the only candidate back then to even consider other than Trump. The rest were all deep state.

Not scared, I welcome it. It shows their hypocrisy. I just feel bad for Ben.

Pence was never built for a bare knuckles trench fight, or really any kind of fight at all.

And I notice he has never brought himself to denounce or even mention obvious 2020 fraud, or in lieu of that, even propose measures to prevent another fraud.

I have a lot of respect for Dr. Carson, but Trump, should he be re-elected, needs an attack dog who knows inside DC like the back of his hand.

Taking that as a given, was their a sudden snap on the 6th, a very bad judgement call, or was there always a character flaw, and this was the manifestation of it?

I think he mismanaged the Covid committee, but that's just me.

He did the bare minimum expected of a vp and in the meantime he was likely working against him in the backrooms.
