With the Republican presidential primary looking all but wrapped up, attention now turns to who Donald Trump will choose as his vice-presidential running mate. The Babylon Bee writers, expert investigative journalists that we are, have managed to obtain Trump's official short list of potential VP picks:
A Stanley tumbler: Get ready for unprecedented support from suburban white women.
Pop-Tart Guy: The breakfast pastry that captivated the nation could be the ultimate unifying choice.
Nikki Haley's husband: Just to really mess with her.
Argentinian President Javier Milei: Just think of the hair!
The lucky fan who buys the 1 millionth Trump NFT: Congrats, Martha from Ohio!
Macaulay Culkin: The Home Alone 2 reunion America needs.
Taylor Swift: Expect multiple cutaways to show her in the audience during every Trump speech.
Voldemort: Oh no, the media was right — Trump IS pure evil!
Hillary Clinton: Just so he can make her come to every Oval Office meeting and then say, "Sorry, Hillary, you're not in this one." Delicious!
Jesus: Sure to lock down the Christian vote.
Alec Baldwin: Every presidential candidate should have a running mate ready to use deadly force to protect him.
Catturd2: The very best social media has to offer. We, too, cannot believe this is real life.
Himself: After looking far and wide, Trump could find no one more qualified than Trump.
Gosh, we can't believe Mike Pence got left off. Keep an eye out, America - the next Vice President of the United States is somewhere on the list above!
“Alec Baldwin: Every presidential candidate should have a running mate ready to use deadly force to protect him.”
LOL
Give me Tom Selleck and I’m sold! lol
Making the King of the Universe VP is nothing short of an insult.
Caitlyn Jenner. Would they dare criticize him/her?
We need a veep who’s just as MAGA as Trump.
Humor. It’s what makes it all worthwhile.
Ever since George Washington did not like John Adams the VP has kind of been on the outside. How about picking a really good administrator and then tasking him with running a department he can’t get anyone good for?
Since the VP has no real duties, except to cast a tie breaker, he should nominate Justice Kavanaugh. The left would go absolutely nuts! That would be so much fun to watch.
“How about picking a really good administrator and then tasking him with running a department he can’t get anyone good for?”
In the immortal words of my sixth-grade teacher, Sister Mary Joseph, “What......What is WRONG with you???
I keed! I keed!
Honestly I am thinking about reaching out to him.
I believe I would be a far better VP than his last one.
I could have been president, but instead I did what I thought at the time was in the best interests of my country.
(There was leverage and money involved but in retrospect I was quite wrong. )
almost any of these choices would be a 1000 times better for USA than Ineligible Kamala
John Sununu—the Secret Service can use him for target practice.
;-)
John Wick and his dog because it would guarantee no one messes with Trump.
Wait..what?
Where’s Chuck Norris?!
This list is bogus without Chuck Norris.
Agree!
The VP must not be a short person. Look how tall Barron and President Trump is not short. Get rid of the short list and and get a medium to tall list.
The guy who bought Trump’s Lamborghini at Barrett Jackson yesterday.
What is a short list without Robert Reich?
I could be mistaken, but I think it was Jefferson as the VP in 1796 who was the one that Washington had the issues with. I think Washington was on somewhat cordial terms with Adams, even if he disagreed with Adams on various legislative things.
However he developed a dislike for Jefferson that eventually caused a breach in their relationship where Washington simply never spoke to him in personal conversation again after Jefferson began a whispering campaign against Washington, and Washington was given irrefutable proof that Jefferson was behind it.
Washington spoke to Jefferson personally, and let him know in no uncertain terms that he was aware of Jefferson’s back channel efforts to discredit him as feeble, dottering, and unable to make decisions. After that, in the public eye such as functions, Washington would speak to Jefferson in cold, required discussion, but that was it.
