[desanctimonious is still campaigning with his daily attempts at media face time press conferences....
But desantis has shown what a lying, manipulative, corrupt, unlikable swamp rino uniparty puppet he is, and he’s got little support except from nevertrumping supporters now.]


This has nothing to do with RINO, uniparty, or any the pet names Trump ad libbed. In general, presidential nominees unify the party by picking the runner-up as VP. JFK did in 1960, Reagan did it in 1980. And these were men of vastly superior political gifts.

Trump has chosen the path of the spoiled, overgrown toddler that he is. His message to the also-rans? Kiss my ring. While the election looks like a lock for him, if he does lose, it will be his sore winner antics that ultimately doomed his comeback.

Wow. What an off the wall post.
I am flabbergasted that a candidate for POTUS should pick the runnerup and not the best VP candidate.

DeSantis is not even the runner up. He won almost no delegates. None of the also ran moved the scale at all and none should be considered for VP.
Your nevertrump goggles are blinding you. A person that would characterize Trump as you have in your last post has sacrificed logic and factual analysis to spew bile.

Donald Trump 1,860
Nikki Haley 93
Ron DeSantis 9
Vivek Ramaswamy 3

There’s the fact that DeSantis and Trump live in the same state. There’s the fact that “Trump, but gets things done” doesn’t really add anything to the ticket. And there’s this: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4232640-desantis-says-he-would-not-serve-as-trumps-vp/

But Trump should pick DeSantis... sure...
