Trump's VP Picks Appears to Narrowed Down to TWO
Self | May 8, 2024 | PJ-Comix

Posted on 05/08/2024 12:50:04 PM PDT by PJ-Comix

With Kristi Noem's dog Cricket bit away her chances of being chosen for VP by President Trump. That appears to have narrowed the field down to two especially since the former governor of the other Dakota (North), Burgum, is revealed to be nothing more than a fully owned tool of Bill Gates as you can easily find out in any quick search.

Therefore it appears the VP field has been narrowed down to JD Vance and Tim Scott. Now tell me, which of the two, according to your own observations, has the fire in the belly to carry on the MAGA Movement after Trump? I think you know who has that capability and it is most definitely the Buckeye Boy.

Yeah, Tim Scott, is a nice guy but he seems to be operating in the belief system of a political world that no longer exists (if it ever really did) of collegiality between Democrats and Republicans. Yeah, he has lately assumed the appearance to be a staunch Trump defender but for him it seems to be an uncomfortable fit. Oh, and would someone who FULLY supporst Trump have run AGAINST him in the primary amidst all the LAWFARE? Something of a deal killer right there.

As to JD Vance, something big changed in him from a few years ago when I (and many others) mistrusted him. However, after MTG endorsed him for Senator during his primary I looked into him and was highly pleased with what I saw.

Vance by far has the fire in the belly to help Trump in the campaign ahead. If you can think of someone better, than post it here but for me right now, I definitely would like to see Vance be chosen as VP and carry on the MAGA banner in the years ahead.

I’m betting on the long shot...it’s DeSantis, all the way.

********************

Trump/DeSantis would be our strongest & best ticket. It would also elevate DeSantis over Newsom going into 2028.

Abbott or Youngkin would be good backups, if DeSantis declines.

I say it’s Ron DeSantis.

And you also say GOODBYE to all of Florida's electoral votes which are DEDUCTED when both candidates are from the Sunshine State.

I like DeSantis, but he demonstrated that he is a horrible campaigner.

There are ways around that, as Bush and Cheney showed in 2000.

That’s interesting.

I’ve traveled internationally and have never noticed the absence of peanut butter!

I’m with you on Nutella.

Donald Trump has learned his lesson. He’s not going to pick another squishy neo-con like Mike Pence.

He’ll pick a smart, hard fighter. Anything less would spell suicide.

The Deep State is watching carefully.

Sigh! I wish more folks here read the Constitution because that means BYE BYE ALL OF FLORIDA'S ELECTORAL VOTES for the Trump (solo state) ticket.

“The appeal is in the grocery bills every time they go to the supermarket aka INFLATION. Price of eggs has more than DOUBLED since Jan. 2021. I don’t think we will see many suburban housewives say, higher food and gas prices? Yup! I’m going to vote Biden for more of that.”

????????????????????

Sorry, you are wrong again.

Swing vote suburban housewives care more about social issues. They make enough money to overcome some inflation.

To win the election, Trump has to be able to show the swing voters that he is not a racist/misogynist/trans-hater, that he will be the President to everybody, not just white male hard-right conservatives.

I know, it’s stupid logic on their part, but it is what it is. Unfortunately, they are not a demographic that is necessarily objective in their approach.

Personally, I think it’s strange, and probably not good practice, to pick someone who lost their highest race.

Scott is a shoo in. Nobody compares to him.

Are you crazy? Remember his George Floyd blather? I don't care if he tried to backtrack later. And where is "Mrs. Scott"? YUGE gaydar on him.

DeSantis is better at policy and the ‘mechanics’ of government than campaigning, IMO would add great value to Trump’s second administration.

Take an aide package of nothing but peanut butter crackers to starving refugees in another part of the world and watch how quickly they spit it out...before coming after YOU.

Tim Scott is still a virgin. If he’s never tamed a woman.

He's gay.

Yeah, try convincing the governor of Florida to become the resident of another state orrrr tell Trump to movie out of Mar-a-Lago a a personal favor to DeSantis in order to become a New York resident again. Yeah, I'm sure that would work out... NOT!

Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell love their sock-puppet, Tim Scott.

Scott showed his true colors in defending George Floyd and Lisa Murkowski.

Good point. Doesn’t bother me but the Democrats would make a huge deal about it.
