Could Scott Brown be Trump's VP pick?

Is former Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown in the running to be Donald Trump's pick for vice president pick if he gets the Republican nomination?

Brown told WCVB he was in New York with Trump Tuesday night and met with him for about 90 minutes.

Jeff Sessions!!

I also thought about (not that I much care for) the wise latina from NM....Gov Susanna Martinez.

But, Trump has said he’ll pick someone who knows the inner workings of DC, so I’m not sure it will be a Gov.

Jeff Sessions!

Yuck, give me a break.

Someone demonstrably to the left of Cruz’s pick that you don’t like, and FAR to the left of Rubio, that makes sense. Not. A solid conservative would best for Trump. Not Chubs Christie and certainly not a liberal MA Senator that lost reelection. Henry Cabot Lodge JR., part 2? Seriously? He’s pro-choice, Brown, do you want to tear the party apart?

If this is a trial balloon, we should go number 2 on it.

Trump would either have to choose someone who could deliver a big battleground state (eg, Kasich OH, Giuliani NY, Nugent MI), or a complimentary demographic (eg, Martinez, Carson, Rice, Blackburn).

That would make sense for most presidential nominees, but Trump has not played the political game like most candidates. He thinks outside the box.

He has to agree with Trump on immigration. Brown is clearly better than anyone that doesn’t have a southern drawl, and im a big supporter of Jeff Sessions.

Rubio couldnt be picked. Kasich can’t.

A brave pick would be David Vitter. It won’t happen.

Snyder is weak on trade/immigratoin,

Pence is insider, squishy.

Walker is an insider, squishy.

The IL gov is weak on trade/immigration.
Kasich is weak on trade/immigration, lehman brotheres.

Pat McCrory is the only fit if you look everywhere and he can’t because of Trump’s bathroom comments.

Rick Scott is weak.

He could go with SoS KS Kobach, the guy who taught self deportation to Romney and how to force Mexico to pay for the wall.

Sandoval’s weak. Ducey’s a RINO.

Utah’s Mormon RINO.

I think you hit the target on that pick.
Christie would help secure support from the entire East Coast and particularly the Northeast, but his 2nd amendment position is not has hard nosed as I would like (probably no surprise to you).

Christie DOES have a mouth on him... and I for one LOVE that backbiting tongue of his.
Have we ever heard him filet someone like hillary? I would love to hear a sample of that.

Scott Brown made John McCain look like Jesse Helms. He is in the same liberal hemisphere as Collins, Mark Kirk, and Olympia Snowe (when she was in the Senate). If Trump wants to win over disaffected Cruz voters, picking a big social liberal like Scott Brown will not do it, it will only convince social conservatives that Trump intends to betray them.

He was on some show and said no to being a VP and recommended Thune. Any thoughts on Thune?

Brown is more conservative and populist than Fiorino.

Not only that but he is a “catholic” rampaging pro-abort aand social revolutionary a la the late Ted Kennedy, and just as Fauxcahontas was no Martha Coakley, neither is Her Satanic Majesty. It will also go over really well with actual Catholics, Evangelicals and other religious conservatives that he appeared as a nude centerfold in some women’s ragazine.
