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.

Thank you for that blow by blow description of what really happened. It’s quite believable. Scott is going to be more cautious inviting some young gal to hop onto the stage and smile pretty using his face in the selfie. Scott’s wife was probably in the audience staring at the whole exchange.
Scott has to try extra hard to be taken like a serious adult.
Wasn’t it Brown who had a nude photo shot in Playgirl about 30 years ago? No one looks at Trump in that way.

No Scott Brown won’t be VP. But this is a problem with Trump. He tends to get effusive about anyone who is doing him a favor or saying something nice. Same with the Putin thing.

Great post!

I echo your feelings exactly.

Can't help but feel we're starting to see history repeating itself once again with Conservative vs. Conservative, leading to a Rubio, Kasich, Christie or a Bush nomination.

If that is to be the case, I won't vote and believe this Country will deserve what it gets.

A female with the conservative cred of Ted Cruz would be pretty awesome, I must admit.

I THOUGHT people were supposed to be judged because of the "content of their character, not the color of their skin" [MLK]; or in this case, NOT on their genitalia.

Hypocrisy, thy name is PR.

I love when the clueless spin actual events. As others have mentioned, Brown invited Trump to a rally and was standing 3 feet from Trump on the stage when someone in the crowd yelled something like “Scott for VP!”. Trump was a good sport about it and handled it well.

To be fair, I don’t believe Brown ever took money from Goldman Sachs and not report it.

Kindly read all of that paragraph you quoted. It’s called juxtapositional argument. Propose an obviously flawed position and then dismantle that position while also dismantling a similarly phrased argument from the opposition.

I’ve sent similar suggestions to Cruz supporters.

Not to appear negative, but it does seem that Donald is grasping for straws this morning in his attempt to decide on a VP. Have circumstances risen where our ‘dream ticket’ is no longer a possibility? Or is the man, really putting out feeder roots for Conservative insight? Thus far, most of his choices fall flat. He had best sit down and give some serious thought, keeping his opinions to himself until the time is neigh, then announce. Or is the MFM just pulling our strings as usual?

Heh, heh, heh....Trump now has his opposition discussion discussing who his VP choice should be.

Could he have done this to indicate he's not all that enthusiastic about Cruz anymore?

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.


That is the norm around here right now. Primary season is crazy season.

Will this or anything finally wake the Trump Kool-aid drinkers up?

By golly, you're right.

This rumor about Scott Brown as Trump's Veep has convinced me to vote for Lindsey Graham...or maybe George Pataki.

I've had enough!
