It just works on so many levels. Inspirational leader, business man, and if they bring up that infidelity thing, well, Trump starts talking about William Jefferson Clinton - JMHO
I say he picks a woman.
I thought you meant "Eye Candy Crowley."
So much projection here. Trump’s supporters hope he will pick a good conservative - to balance the ticket. Because in their heart of hearts, Trump supporters realize he is not a conservative.
If Trump manages to get the nomination, he will pick a moderate/left Washington-insider politician. A genuine member of the GOPe. Mark my words and check back on this thread in July.
Hasn’t Ben Carson proved he has the perfect demeanor to sit in the Senate and listen to that rabble throw verbal grenades all day? Also, he pays attention to details.
The going home for a change of clothes though... scratch that. They’ll never let him out of there.
Trump seems positive about Carson and Rubio. But Rubio is possibly not natural-born, and too pro-amnesty.
Carson would be an excellent contrast.
But we should probably look to Trump’s business history as to his style of picking successors and business partners. Thoughts?
Ivanka LOL
Are you insane?
Trump will eventually have to beat a single opponent
And then pick someone who brings a swing state or his GOP goes back into the fold?
Am I wrong?
Or he can just keep being himself..,it appears to work despite all the forces in the universe lined up against him
Walker. :)
A NY Jets fan always needs a backup team to root for.
I see you’re still having issues. I know the perfect doctor.
Cruz needs to spend time with his beautiful daughters, i.e. something with regular hours.
Herman works for me. He’s a great guy.
This kills me to say this, but I know a really good judge no Democrat in their right mind would object to.

Jeff, from wiki;
Baxter fell into his second profession almost by accident. In the mid-1980s, Baxter’s interest in music recording technology led him to wonder about hardware and software that was originally developed for military use, i.e. data-compression algorithms and large-capacity storage devices. As it happened, his next-door neighbor was a retired engineer who had worked on the Sidewinder missile program. This neighbor bought Baxter a subscription to Aviation Week magazine, provoking his interest in additional military-oriented publications and missile defense systems in particular. He became self-taught in this area, and at one point he wrote a five-page paper that proposed converting the ship-based anti-aircraft Aegis missile into a rudimentary missile defense system. He gave the paper to California Republican congressman Dana Rohrabacher, and his career as a defense consultant began.
Backed by several influential Capitol Hill lawmakers, Baxter received a series of security clearances so he could work with classified information. In 1995, Pennsylvania Republican congressman Curt Weldon, then the chairman of the House Military Research and Development Subcommittee, nominated Baxter to chair the Civilian Advisory Board for Ballistic Missile Defense.
Baxter’s work with that panel led to consulting contracts with the Pentagon’s Missile Defense Agency (MDA) and National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. He now consults to the U.S. Department of Defense and the U.S. intelligence community, as well as for defense-oriented manufacturers including Science Applications International Corporation (”SAIC”), Northrop Grumman Corp., General Dynamics, and General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc. He has been quoted as saying his unconventional approach to thinking about terrorism, tied to his interest in technology, is a major reason he became sought after by the government.
“We thought turntables were for playing records until rappers began to use them as instruments, and we thought airplanes were for carrying passengers until terrorists realized they could be used as missiles,”[12] Baxter has said. “My big thing is to look at existing technologies and try to see other ways they can be used, which happens in music all the time and happens to be what terrorists are incredibly good at.”
Baxter has also appeared in public debates and as a guest on CNN and Fox News Channel advocating missile defense. He served as a national spokesman for Americans for Missile Defense, a coalition of organizations devoted to the issue.
In 2000, Baxter considered challenging Rep. Brad Sherman for the 24th Congressional District seat in California before deciding not to run.[13]
In April 2005, he joined the NASA Exploration Systems Advisory Committee (ESAC).
Baxter was a member of an independent study group that produced the “Civil Applications Committee Blue Ribbon Study” recommending an increased domestic role for U.S. spy satellites in September 2005.[14] This study was first reported by The Wall Street Journal on August 15, 2007.[15]
Baxter is listed as “Senior Thinker and Raconteur” at the Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition.[16]
Baxter is a Senior Fellow and Member of the Board of Regents at the Potomac Institute for Policy Studies.[17]
