sacrificing meritocracy for identity politics most of MAGA would despise you and you have lost all honor, becoming a leftist by practice.

You are setting up an "either-or" fallacy.

You don't have to have one or the other. You have to get both.

No, you can have both is the fallacy.
I think we are on the same page about what we would like to see happen.
I purpose that Trump would never pick a VP cynically based on her being a woman or them being black. The VP is a heartbeat away from the Presidency and it is too important not to pick the person who would best be able to keep America safe &MAGA. Too important not to pick the best.

There are political calculations that go into the choice of VP, including what they will bring to the table in winning the election but looking for a “woamn” is a bridge too far. Trump has nothing against women. He has picked women for cabinet positions and promoted women within his organization to very senior postions. If in his judgement the person he picks as best for his VP is a woman that is not an issue. But looking for a woman is cynical and does not serve America well. Also Trump is a very moral man and believes in the best person for the job (when Mitch doesn’t have him by the unmentionables). We are in good hands.
