Fantasizing is fun, but Trump’s best bet is a strongly conservative guy with credibility among conservative Republicans who has been successful in DC but has been out of office a bit (thus avoiding the odious stink of the modern Republicans), and preferably hails from a swing state.

A one term Congressman who was run out of office? I like West, too, but that won’t pay the bills.

I don’t know who this candidate could be, but if you consider SC a swing state (and I really don’t - if Trump can’t win SC on his own, it’s going to be an early night), Jim DeMint would be a fine, stabilizing, and sober choice.

I tend to think along those lines also. He needs someone that knows the ropes amongst the
DC power brokers and how to use them. One of the problems in DC now is how divided the
country has gotten and the legislature will just sit and do nothing when things need to be
done. To me it’s gotten almost beyond repair.
