A Trump/Kasich Ticket?

Trump strikes me as the kind of tactician who tacks back and forth, courting some opponents while going after others, then adapting the game to his perceived advantage as coalitions change. Ugh — that sounded disgustingly like the old “Survivor” program, but it has worked for Stalin, FDR, and many others throughout history.

[xzins]

No, I don’t rremember that. Take guns off the list.

[bgill]

Kasich is a dumb bunny.

[xzins]

Gingrich was up in SC last time

[Reddy]

Yeah. Getting sick of it. A Christian conservative family member declared in a FB post yesterday that if DT won the nomination, it would drive her straight into the arms of Clinton.

I was so disgusted, I didn’t reply.

I think he will pick Rubio , actually ?

His spats with Rubio have been rather minor and a bit humorous.

Well, wouldn’t THAT be special. Pick someone who campaigns on one issue and works to deliver the opposite once in.

Trump, BLESSED BE HIS NAME, could put Rubio in charge of facilitating the “bounce backs” from those who are deported (for 24 hours)—they could be immediately given Green Cards.

[Savage Beast]

HELL NO!

If he named CRUZ as a running mate, there would be NO WAY I would not vote for him.

With KASICH?

Nah.....I’d REALLY be nuts to do that.

DEAL BREAKER.

A Trump/Kasich ticket would definitely be to the left of the Romney/Ryan ticket, not that the Trump worshipers on here will ever admit that.

Although... they DO “balance the ticket” better, personality wise (Trump-outspoken loose cannon, Kasich-bland colorless hack)

[moehoward]

Now that Ted looks to be out. We may have a problem. Rubios name is being mentioned.

[Paladin2]

It ain't over 'till it's over..

Lotsa time yet to go 'till Nov.

[Twinkie]

Trump/Cruz - would set Cruz up to shine for a future
Presidential run. Trump’s gonna be getting long in the
tooth in a few years. I never thought I liked him; but he’s
a damsight better than the Clintons and Colonel Burnie
Sanders!

  Last weekend I had the pleasure of attending the annual conservative RedState Gathering, where nine Republican presidential candidates gave fiery speeches. Although all were very impressive speakers, I kept applying the "Buckley rule" -- these days, generally thought of as "nominate the most conservative candidate who is electable" -- and did not feel confident that any of them could actually win the White House in 2016.

What a joke. It would be a contest to see who could wave their arms enough to fly!!!!!

The way that Trump thinks " outside the box" I wonder if he ends up running against Bernie Sanders - If he wouldn't more likely choose Hillary Clinton as his running mate. She would help him with the ultimate liberal women's vote. She would help him siphon votes away against the Bernie/ Liawatha team. Helping to offset many of the votes he would lose from stay at home Republicans. And he has supported her and donated to her in the past. We know they can get along.

Plus once Hillary loses the Dem nomination, she and Bill would certainly be amenable to merely being Trump's running mate. It still gets them a heart attack away from the White-house, and allows them to continue with their graft continuing to enrich themselves.

And I doubt Hillary being his running mate would really deter MANY of trump's true believer supporters from voting for the ticket.

Of course trump would have to sleep with one eye open the rest of his term. . .

[nopardons]

That'll NEVER come to pass and Trump doesn't have "advisers", as such. No way, NO WAY would he pick KaSICKO !

[nopardons]

He likes doing the unusual...he’ll probably pick someone not on the stage and shock everyone.

[Fiji Hill]

how about NY Values?

Trump Schumer.
Trump Cuomo.
Trump King.
Trump DeBlasio.

Trump Scozzafava

Or how about a blast from the past?

Trump Marcantonio

The Vice-Presidential Debates would be, er, quite aerobic to say the least!

Don’t get me started...
