Trump Floats Scott Brown as Potential VP
The Hill ^ | January 16, 2016 | Bradford Richardson

Posted on 01/16/2016 12:03:49 PM PST by ConservativeTeen

Speaking to a crowd at a Portsmouth, N.H., rally hosted by Scott Brown on Saturday, Donald Trump said the former senator would make a “very good” vice president.

After Trump asked Brown whether he would consider running for public office again, a member of the audience floated the idea of a Trump-Brown ticket in 2016.

“Vice president – hey, that sounds like it could, hey, hey, very good,” Trump responded.

Ugh, seriously? Do you have a link for that?

One thing about a Trump/Kasich ticket: they’d win all the Reagan democrats that their supporters are crowing about, but they’d lose every conservative vote.

I heard Donald Trump floated Rush Limbaugh for VP. Why is everyone so late to the party?

What was Trump going to say, Hell no? Of course he's going to nod and wink and play along.

This is the liberal Hill.com stirring up the pot again.

Just like when Trump joked that Winfrey would be his VP. Sheesh.

Wow. Americans don't get much whiter than Scott Brown.

Kudos for Trump for NOT choosing a "minority" VP.

Exactly!

I expect Trump go choose a very competent individual with successful executive experience.

Either another business person or a strong, successful, conservative governor...i.e. Gov Susana Martinez of New Mexico?

Wait, can't be...the thread I just came from said it's going to be VP Kasich??

Lot of propaganda and gullible desperate posters here this season.

Scott Brown..or John Kasich......also mentioned recently...

Only a complete retard would claim Trump "mentioned" Kasich as a VP choice. I saw your posts in that thread and thought to myself, "These people are really stupid! They didn't even read the article!"

Marking for later, when someone accuses Cruz of changing his views on gay marriage when speaking to gay fundraiser. (He didn’t change his views at all, but I know reading more than a headline is hard for FReepers in all camps!)

East Coast liberal?

That ought to do it.

Maybe Trump is working for Hillary. They are both grifters.

THIS is “floating”? He cheekily answered an audience question by flattering his host. It would be imbecilic for Trump to choose Brown, and he never would.

“At a rally hosted by Scott Brown”

Should not have been at a rally hosted by Scott Brown, neither should Cruz have been at a rally hosted by faggots.

Not only that .. but to even mention Scott Brown to the Conservatives will just result in hilarious laughter.

I read Cruz is going to pick Bush.

I seen it right here on the interweebs, must be true....or maybe it was just a shill trying to stir up trouble.

What’s amusing is to see who the idiots are that fall for it.

What a sell out move that would be.

He’s playing you all like a violin. He was there as a guest of Brown and was being gracious. I never saw so many people get so bent out of shape by something so ridiculous.

I’d prefer a governor or someone from outside government.

You are 100% correct.
Governors made GOOD presidents. They have PRACTICE at governing as they enforce laws.

Senators and Representatives don't "govern"; they make laws.
