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

Trump doesn’t know the best VP candidate from a hole in the ground. In terms of political skills, he is probably the worst winning GOP presidential candidate the GOP has ever had, and the list of half-baked winners is a long one. His candidacy is where Roy Moore and Michael Mourdock would have gone if they were billionaires - primary winners, but marginal in the general election.

JFK and Reagan were political legends whose shoes Trump is unfit to shine. For them, unifying a fractious party was job one. They understood that each candidate represented an umbrella of factional interests and to leave some of those interests in the cold was to risk losing.

That Trump thinks he knows better is typical Trump egomania. Unfortunately for his rep, his lousy judgement is obvious in the number of handpicked men who have badmouthed him after leaving office.
