I’m calling it now. He’s going to pick Kristi Noem.
Nah, can't be true. The MSM tells us over and over that the Trump White House was always total chaos.
Those choices would certainly make for an interesting 4 (or more) years...
One of the people he can not pick is Nikki.
He can not pick Nikki.
My number one VP choice is Rand Paul.
I’m not opposed to Dr. Carson as VP choice but I think Trump’s VP choice will be the defacto MAGA, America First candidate in 2028. Not sure Carson’s aggressive enough to be President. I would vote for Don Jr. in 2028. He’s seen first hand the dangers to personal liberty that Liberals/Progressives pose.
bump for later
I nominate Lazamataz.
Well, that’s quite a list isn’t it?
Not sure I agree with you on Trump’s pick for VP based upon the next election in 2028. Trump has a lot of people within his own party that have tried like crazy to topple him from anything he has endeavored. I think his first thought may be to secure a position in the senate to keep that body in line more like the conservatives would run it than allowing it to be the stopping point of bills coming out of the house like it is now due to weak leadership in Harris. The speaker and the VP in their respective parts of congress are important to further Trump’s agenda not exactly like the republican platform. The republican platform with it’s different thinking members is destined to fail as it always has done when they fold up like a lawn chair. Trump may be looking for a real tough one like he is to keep the cattle in the corral in the senate ranch. May be a tough search. But it’s about time a republican dug in his/her heals and said not only no, but hell no in that body!

Rick Grennell!!!!!
Elise Stefanik, please.
VP is there to advance Trump’s policies and be competent enough to step in if needed. VP’s who are looking ahead to their own ambitions in 2028 may not loyally champion what Trump wants done.
I like Josh Hawley. Not impressed with Kristi. She caved on the transgenders on women’s sports. Like Sarah Huckabee or Kari Lake.
Nikki Haley is a nightmare whose political ambitions need to be crushed into oblivion in 2024.
Tom Fitton of Judicial Watch.
Speaks well in front of TV cameras, knows where the bodies are buried, young, knows The Swamp, very fit—fills out a shirt, great hair.
May neuter the contempt of the dreaded Suburban Women.
Either MD would be my second choice.
Successful though Noem may be as governor, it’s worth keeping in mind that South Dakota is an even redder state than Florida. Both the upper and lower legislative houses of South Dakota have a 90% Republican majority. The assumption that a successful governor of a deep red state automatically has what it takes to be successful in the highly partisan Washington environment, should be tempered with some skepticism.
Assuming Trump wins in 2024, would someone like Ben Carson be a good successor to him in 2028? It depends on the state of the country at the time. If the pace of reform in Trump’s 2nd term is swift and he’s able to hand over a thoroughly reformed and largely honest government to whoever succeeds him, then yes. On the other hand, if the process of reform is incomplete and a candidate who can finish the job is needed, then I have my doubts about someone like Carson. Though he’s decent and honest, I don’t believe he has the temperament to deal with the ruthless adversaries who now infiltrate our government.
Whoever Trump picks, it better not be a Bu$h league/neocon type. The deep state could then assassinate Trump (if he overcomes massive voter fraud) and get this country into the Ukraine war via the RINO quisling VP.
2024 isn’t like past elections. We are in the middle of an epic battle to save the Republic from corruption and tyranny - and 2024 may be our last chance.
If the Republic is to survive, President Trump must win in 2024 and to win it he has to make enough voters understand the dire straights we’re are in. He has to sell the MAGA Movement (which should really be the America First Movement IMHO).
Whoever he picks for VP, there should not be one sliver of daylight between them when it comes to destroying the deep state and putting America First. His running mate needs to be every bit as passionate about putting America First, every bit as angry about the stolen elections, and every bit as ruthless when it comes to rooting out the Deep State.
Imagine President Trump picks a running mate who is great in most ways, but who hems and haws when asked if the 2020 election was stolen. That would be a disaster… same with building a wall. …same with drill baby drill. ..same with forever wars. …same with America first in trade. …same with “lock her up”.
He needs to pick someone who genuinely agrees with him on everything right down to his mean tweets and childish nicknames.
I say Keri Lake. She is all of those things and more.
