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

“Without question, JD Vance.”

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

JDV would be a disastrous choice by DJT for VP.

While JDV may become the standard bearer for 2028, he adds ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to the ticket in 2024. He may even subtract in that swing voters may well perceive him as another Trump, which is bad in their eyes.

Once again, NOTHING ELSE MATTERS besides winning in November. All other criteria, such as the ones you mention, are irrelevant and worthless.

Trump needs to pick someone who is demographically complementary to himself or he will surely lose.

Gov. Sanders, Elise Stefanik, Tulsi, Scott, and Vivek would be vastly superior choices over Vance.

HUGE mistake if he picks Vance.

I am a big Scott supporter. He brings everything needed to the Political Plate including a large part of the Black vote which would kill the Dems.

Are you trying to get invited to his wedding in August? BTW, if he isn't chosen as VP there won't be a need for a wedding so no cake for your political plate.

Vivek is still the best pick to get the youth vote, and to continue the agenda in 2028.

If there's any hope of ending the anchor baby legislation/mistranslation of the 14th Amendment, then we can't use anchor baby Vivek as the guy's who's one heartbeat away from the WH.

IMHO Vivek would be the ultimate chief spokesman for Trump.

Add Byron Donalds to the list.

LOL! This makes absolutely NO sense. If a swing voter is turned off by "another Trump" then why do you think he would vote for the original Trump?

My wife hates peanut butter. So if I have two peanut butter cookies on my plate, if she won't eat the second peanut butter cookie then why would you expect her to eat the first peanut butter cookie?

For my part, General Michael Flynn is the best choice.

I like Vance the most since he’s become a defender. He doesn’t miss a trick, however, if job#1 is to able to step into Oval Office, his lack of political experience and government administration won’t win him the gig.

Has DeSantis ruled it out, positively ?

I don’t want Tim Scott a heartbeat away from the presidency. Burgum or Vance maybe but the alternative media says its going to be Mike Flynn. Its probably moot at this point because its unlikely we’ll be voting in November.

Therefore it appears the VP field has been narrowed down to JD Vance and Tim Scott.

My personal preference is Vivek Ramaswamy.

But both Tim and JD should be solid.

It's the VP. I wouldn't read too much in it.

Picking a woman for the VP is a bad idea, it screams DEI.

And now there's a backlash against DEI.

Vivek would signal the election was social issues oriented and Trump isn’t into that, especially not for young people. On top of his citizenship issues.

You argue like a little girl. And your pointless analogy to peanut butter is pointless and is a straw man logical fallacy.

A swing voter, by definition, is on the fence. If Trump selects a VP that verifies that Trump is not anything that a swing voter might find reprehensible, then he may get that vote.

IMHO, this election, if remotely fair (a big if), will be decided by suburban housewives. Trump has to appeal to them.

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