I'm making a bold prediction today she's got this based on the following evidence:
She's on the list
Donald Trump Shortlist: Tulsi Gabbard's VP Chances Soar
"Tulsi Gabbard's odds of becoming the 2024 Republican vice-presidential candidate surged with a leading bookmaker after Donald Trump said she was on his short list during a Fox News town hall on Tuesday".
She wants it
Tulsi Gabbard ready to ‘serve my country’ as Trump’s vice president if asked
“If that call came, I would say yes, and I'd be honored to serve my country in that way and to be in a position, first, to help win this election, to stop the Democratic elite from destroying our country, and then actually begin the real work of getting our country back on track,” Gabbard said.
“And that starts with having people of courage in our government who care more about the country than they do about the political elite in Washington."
Betting odds reflect her growing chances
She was 35/1 earlier this year now she is 7/1 2nd FAVORITE in the betting to be the GOP Vice Presidential nominee.
For someone who isnt even a Republican to be 2nd Favorite for the nomination is unprecedented.
Her rivals are unimpressive
Noem, Tim Scott, etc. all look lightweights to me so that leaves JD Vance and I'm not sure Trump will pick a freshman senator
So that leads me to conclude that Tulsi Gabbard has this!!
Interesting...
Mark this thread because I have immediately placed $25 on her at 7/1 and will be donating the winnings (175 bucks) to FR if she is chosen by Donald Trump.
I'm confident enough for a small wager anyway!
Who agrees with me that it'll be her? And who's excited by this possibility?
She has some sane positions, and lots of insane positions.
I can’t see this happening.
I couldn’t vote for her as president, later.
Yes she is a traitor.
But remember when George HW Bush was selected as Reagan’s VP - he publicly changed his position on abortion 180 degrees as a condition of his selection.

“Magabbard”
Exactly. People need to look behind the headlines and the current attempts to capitalize by posturing. Trump can do much better.
Look at her positions...long held unrepudiated positions...She’s for gun control, continuing Zerocare, No border wall and no deportation of illegal immigrants.
Yes Do you support government funding for the development of renewable energy (e.g. solar, wind, geo-thermal)?
Yes Do you support the federal regulation of greenhouse gas emissions?
We need to invest in 100% renewable and safe energy sources like wind, solar, and geothermal. I also support a ban on fracking, ending the $26 billion/year in fossil fuel subsidies, ban offshore drilling, harness innovation to create jobs in renewable energy, provide better opportunities for our farmers, ensure every American has clean air and water, and ban all subsidies or waivers to the nuclear power industry, which should itself be completely responsible for paying for its own insurance and paying the long term cost for safe storage of nuclear waste over centuries.

“Is she Christian?”
____________________
No, Tulsi is a Hindu.
It’s amazing to think she is 2nd in the betting this is what gives the theory credence.
We’ll see soon and like I said I put my money where my mouth is and will donate it to FR
She’s a Hindu.
So she has 32+ million gods in her life.
I see she added a gray streak to her head bone.
I do love him. WAY more than Tim Scott.
I like JD Vance, Burgum and Ben Carson as other alternatives. Kristi Noem can kiss my grits. Don’t like Elise or Rubio either
IF she gets the call. Does someone think dems/libs will follow her across the line? Still don’t trust her in any case.
hope you are correct!
My Prediction - Michael Flynn.
Has she apologized yet for endorsing and campaigning for commie Bernie Frank?
If she gets on the ticket, I’ll be sitting home on Election Day. I doubt that President Trump would want a commie being a heart-beat away from the Presidency. I sure as hell don’t.
a woman of color?? LOL
R’s need to quit playing the leftist joke of a game with all this DEI crap.
No. Those voters she would attract are not going to vote for Trump. Her positions on green energy subsidies, gun control etc will cause a net loss of voters. People will stay home because we don’t need another leftist near the reins of power.
I think Buddhist? Anyone? Bueller?
She could be the Surfing Czar
Gabbard does hold some rather conservative positions. But I don’t know how much to trust her.
No matter. She’d make a very good VP candidate, as she would appeal to soccer moms and others in the squishy middle. And for that reason alone I’m more than okay with her.
Trump cannot govern if he cannot win in the first place. And we need Trump right now, desperately.
