Perhaps a popular conservative former Senator?

I could see Rubio for VP because FL is the key swing state, IMO. Trump can handle the rust belt states and lockdown the panhandle of FL by himself. Then camp Rubio in South Florida and Orlando-Tampa to try to keep it close there.

A state that Rubio LOST during the primaries... Rubio’s stock has fallen greatly since he first was elected to office. In a year when the electorate on both sides of the aisle are clearly against the establishment, Rubio would be a poor choice. Kasich would be a better choice that Rubio, at least Kasich has proven he can carry his home state.

I Know the conventional wisdom would say pick someone who bolsters you in places you are weak, and for Trump that would be someone that is viewed as part of the establishment.

I think however this would be a very very bad move for Trump, I think Trump needs to find someone who will compliment his “Enough is Enough” campaign. If he’s going to select a politician for a running mate he needs to find someone who’s been vocally fighting against the NWO/NEOCON for a long time, and has managed not to alienate everyone around them in the process. He’s also going to have to pick someone who can mesh with his style, not be overshadowed or intimidated by it.

Hillary is being pushed to the far far left by Sanders, she’s going to have a hard time mediating once the nomination is sealed for her, so she is likely going to be forced into a VP candidate that is far left... IE Warren or something like that that will appease the Bernie supporters and shore up her base... So whoever the VP pick for Trump is, they are going to have to be just as much of a presence as Trump tends to be, because Warren is a loud mouth shill and she will steamroll anyone who isn’t afraid to get in or right back in her face.

We’ll see how it plays out, but I think Trump will offer someone outside the box.
