“I noticed that the sentencing is on July 11 and the Republican convention is four days after that”

A little thought experiment here:
Who should Trump pick as his VP running mate and announce as such at least a week before July 11 who would scare the sh*t out of the DNC/Deep State? This person, Trump should make clear, as the choice of the person, Trump, who won the most delegates is the only other person Trump would accept be nominated instead of him.
This person could immediately put forth his VP running mate, a person just as scary to the DNC/Deep State.
Both of the two could agree that they regard Trump as the rightful nominee/candidate and that the one standing in as the R presidential nominee will step aside for Trump to resume his place once the dust clears/Supreme Court weighs in.
I’m thinking Ben Carson should be one of these two, probably at the top of the ticket, because he is so likable and saintlike and his stepping aside seems in character for him.
Ben’s VP pick, who should of course be someone Trump is really happy with, should be a bit of a pitbull type. I’m thinking that Missouri AG.
Force the DNC/Deep State to go after Trump’s two chosen men.
(Men—because I really can’t think of a woman who would be a good choice.) The DNC/Deep State would seem even more evil and ridiculous.
Yeah, I know I am going to get pilloried on this one.
So Carson runs, wins (well, okay, loses after he is winning handily and vote counting is shut down at 2 am and then suddenly Carson starts getting behind in vote count, you know the routine) and gets in as President (after months of whatever conflaguration has to be gone through to get there), resigns and rides off into the sunset to become a wise, sage president emeritus type. The other guy becomes president, puts forth Trump as his VP, and then resigns and becomes head of the Justice Dept. or something he’d much rather be doing that be VP or prez. Trump then puts in cool dude #3 as his VP, whoever that is, Vance, Gaetz, etc.
I like this idea.
lotta movin parts
No, thought experiments is how Einstein came up with the theory of relativity. I would like to see Ken Paxon, the attorney general of Texas somewhere in your thought experiment, but I think anything is in the realm of possibility. Paxon would make a great attorney general for President Trump and would show hints of future legal action based on law.
