well, I’m not sure we will get a pure conservative for a VP but I think we will get someone that the establishment thinks they can trust, who they find reassuring as a known quantity in the role of governing
Someone like Scott Walker for example?
Don’t know anything about his trade policies or other conservative bona fides on social issues, but he seems like a pretty fearless even tempered (ie boring wonk) guy who can handle a hostile bureaucracy and produce results
Except he’s a state governor, not a DC politician and Trump probably doesn’t see the unions as enemies the way Walker did
Trump is pulling too many union votes to select Walker as his VP. He is poised to get more union support than any GOP candidate in decades.
Why would he select a lightning rod for unions as VP?
