In March, Youngkin skipped a rally to attend a basketball game, citing a scheduling conflict. In October 2021, Youngkin gave the cold shoulder again, saying prior arrangements kept him from appearing at a Trump rally featuring then-chief Trump strategist Steve Bannon.

With new polling indicating Trump is on the rise in Virginia, Youngkin seems to be hopping back on the Trump train.

Youngkin seems to go with whichever way the wind is blowing.

It’s a plus when snakes out themselves. The trick is remembering the incidents. Too many short memories especially for pretty faced politicians and other DEI choices.

Trump should go with Douglas James Burgum.

Politicians have a short memory and a wealth of forgiveness if someone can benefit them. If Youngkin is the VP and can bring Virginia into the Trump realm, Trump wins.

Youngkin was a Bushie. He needs to demonstrate that he will deliver VA from the Rat fraud machine before he can join the Trump Admin II. That doens't work as VP.

Whoever will bring most additional voters should be the VP choice. Winning is the only thing that matters (per coach Vince Lombardi). Without a win, all agenda control is lost to leftist Democrats.

In 2028 there will be many choices available to republicans, and the 2024 VP does not have a lock on nomination.

I’m not in favor of Youngkin. Not the worse choice, though. He would be better than Stefanik, but we can do better.

If Youngkin is an establishment globalist and is Trump's VP, then a Trump "win" would be very short lived.

I could see Trump picking Younkin for VP and being so successful in his 2nd term he(Trump) supports someone else in ‘28 that doesn’t kiss the butts of questioners like he did at his town hall.

I agree with you. Winning is the most important thing in this election. Whoever helps DJT the most is the best choice for me.

Ron Desantis is going to be the next President after Trump. So it doesn’t matter who he picks as his Veep.
