That is exactly why Trump should hire Gingrich as his Chief of Staff. He’d be closer to mentor and advise Trump than anyone on the planet. The Chief of Staff has more influence on advising the President than most VPs.

Ms.Love is from Utah and she is a LDS puppet for Cruz as I remember.

Correction anyone?

Anyone with ties to Romney is, without any other “qualifier, a no-go IMO. I think Trump knows that too.

Romney stinks up everything he touches. His adherents are usually found out to be back stabbing vile creatures. (see Nicole Wallace’s treachery in re: Sarah Palin)

As for Joni Ernst I just don’t see her as a viable Trump VP selection. Too green and politically unproven.

I don’t pretend to know what Trump’s criteria for VP is, but I don’t think the usual roundup of choices fit the bill.

Like a birthday party I’m willing to be surprised on the convention floor.....

Abbott from Texas. Mexican American wife.

Trump tweeted today about meeting both Joni Ernst and Mike Pence over this weekend. Is he telegraphing his final two choices or just giving us a head fake? Time will tell.

Kasich would stab the American people in the back also.

Kasich is an open borders puke and should be arrested for that position in attempting to destroy this country.

Disagree with you that Abbott is in the same class as the others you name.

Check him out. He brings a depth most cannot maych.

Yup. That asshole partnered with Lyin’ Ted to sabotage Trump. Kasick is another sleaze ball.

America cannot absorb touchback amnesty numbers and it builds more disrespect for the rule of law.
No Pence.

“Disagree with you that Abbott is in the same class as the others you name.”

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I’m sure Abbott is a fine man. But:

Abbott is from Texas. We have Texas won. (We better.)

Abbott is a man. Trump is a man.

Abbott is white. Trump is white.

Therefore, Abbott brings nothing to the ticket to help it win.

Therefore, Abbott is not a good choice.

She is an idiot. Endorsed Rubio, then Cruz. Voted for Ryan.

I gave her donations, then found out she is for open borders sanctuary cities, and amnesty.

Her endosing Rubio Boobio, tells it all. If Trump wants a GOP woman then Blackburn comes to mind, or Judge Pirro.

Your premises fail, therefore your conclusion is not supported.

White and male and smart and proven conservative and bi-cultural family much more appealing than pandering to a rino.

Then take Jeff Sessions for the first four years. By that time President Trump will have his feet wet dealing with the scummy political class.

Joni Ernst did not announce herself Tea Party nor to she seek out Tea party endorsement. A lot of people jumped to conclusions based on military, motorcycle and Sarah Palin. But she’s no Romney creature either. She’s a quieter female version of Chuck Grassley.

I doubt she’s being seriously considered. If she is, there’s something wrong with the Trump campaign.

How could she vote for Ryan?
She is not a constituent of his district!
She lives in Iowa!
