“Report: Trump about to make first mistake in VP pick”

Translation: You didnt pick whom I demanded.

Run for the office, and pick whomever you want.

If he look at the pro and cons of all of these guys, then fine. This isnt a big old troll contest to make a lot of whoop and holler, and you cant just appoint someone to the slot either. They have to accept or be offered.

I wanted Newt. Didnt get Newt. I’m getting over it. Try it yourself.

Well since you wanted Newt none of us should be listening to anything you have to say anyway.

I actually didn’t want Newt (too old, too unfocused, too me, me, me ... Christie’s a bit too me, me, me as well).

Christie would be decent as an attack dog, though. Christie probably has better use by the country as AG prosecuting the Obamas, Clintons and other corrupt Dems and Republicans after Trump takes office.

Pence - dry white toast. Nothing tasty, but won’t make you barf.

Rep Duncan Hunter, Jr. from CA I think would be pretty good. Strong on defense for sure.

Maybe the Gov from OK? Liked Gov Abbott from TX, but he had that recent burn injury, so he’s obviously focused on getting better.

Jeff Sessions is awesome - if only he was 10 years younger.

The key for VP is just pick someone that isn’t going to hurt you. Pence probably does that and provides the Midwest attitude counterbalance to Trump’s NYC vibe.

Who knows, this may all be smokescreen and Trump surprises everybody?

Kills me that Cruz acted like such a jerk. If he had behaved himself and didn’t do those shenanigans, most of us would be dancing on the ceiling looking forward to a Trump/Cruz ticket.

That being said, if Trump does choose Newt would I be all upset? No, not at all.

Judging by FR, there was no one Trump could pick who would be “right.”

Sorry Ann. Pence’s strengths are that he doesn’t have the charisma to lead a movement if Trump is impeached, so it’s impeachment insurance; he draws a bunch of traditionalist GOP and GOPe types and further pads Trump’s Christian conservative support. And most of all, he doesn’t try to upstage the star. That is crucial in this campaign.

Same here. I wanted Newt but Mike will do just fine. Safe pick. He’s clean as a whistle.
