Thing is, Trump wants someone with 25 years behind him/her. That makes it rather difficult to find a young energetic person.
Honestly, I think of Tom Cotton and Allan West - but they don’t have that much experience. All of the other young Republicans seem to be sell-outs.
Either way, if he participated in it, he's gone over to the dark side.
Just like Trump says, they talk a good game to get elected, how they are going to stand up for the people. Then they get to Washington, and see the trappings of the oligarchy, the wealth, the graft, the gold, the perks, the parties, the women---and they say "I will make sure I do whatever is necessary to NEVER leave this place!"
Rand Paul (don’t beat me up too bad).
GOP Establishment fixtures holding a secret meeting with decidedly non-conservative billionaires at a posh island resort to plot against him [Trump]. According to the Huffington Post, that’s exactly what happened at the American Enterprise Institute’s annual World Forum last weekend:
Apple CEO Tim Cook, Google co-founder Larry Page, Napster creator and Facebook investor Sean Parker, and Tesla Motors and SpaceX honcho Elon Musk all attended. So did Senate Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY)42% (R-Ky.), political guru Karl Rove, House Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)56% , GOP Sens. Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR)77% (Ark.), Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO)38% (Colo.), Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC)88% (S.C.), Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH)51% (Ohio) and Ben Sasse (Neb.), who recently made news by saying he “cannot support Donald Trump.” Along with Ryan, the House was represented by Energy and Commerce Committee Chair Rep. Fred Upton (R-MI)40% (Mich.), Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX)57% (Texas) and almost-Speaker Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA)40% (Calif.), sources said, along with leadership figure Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA)44% (Wash.), Budget Committee Chairman Rep. Tom Price (R-GA)68% (R-Ga.), Financial Services Committee Chairman Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-TX)71% (Texas) and Rep. Diane Black (R-TN)67% (Tenn.).
Philip Anschutz, the billionaire GOP donor whose company owns a stake in Sea Island, was also there, along with Democratic Rep. John Delaney (D-MD)4% , who represents Maryland. Arthur Sulzberger, the publisher of The New York Times, was there, too, a Times spokeswoman confirmed.
Tom Cotton is a favorite of Hugh Hewitt and the Sea Island Republicans. NOT a good sign.
What’s great about DJT is, if the pickins’ are slim, and there’s no one that meets his standards, he won’t hesitate to go outside the box, do whatever it takes to get the best match in a working partner for him. We can rest assured : )
