It was Gingrich yesterday. Whisperers whispered so.
LOL
Donald is going to keep everyone guessing until the Convention.
Okay, only because of that. But still...
I would love to see Obama have to eat crow as he is forced to shake Brewers hand on transition day.....

Such a pathetic petty little crap... going to be so nice watching him twist in the wind.
Mr. Trump: NO, NO, NO to Christie as VP. Make him AG or head of Homeland Security - but keep his anti-gun arse away from the Presidency, PLEASE.
I believe that you need a few things from a Veep candidate:
1) Someone with very similar views to you on immigration, national defense, monetary policy, the Supreme Court and the gun laws. Why? So that no one in the Establishment (of either party) will be the least bit tempted to assassinate you or impeach you.
2) Someone in their late 40s - early 60s. With respect, you will be the oldest President upon assuming office, and while you are in prime health (and may that continue for many, many years), if something happens then this country needs someone to take over who will be able to finish the job that you are starting.
3) A woman or a Hispanic (or Black) would be nice, so as to short-circuit the Dem argument that you (or Republicans in general) are misogynist or prejudiced. HOWEVER, I believe that you should do as you always do and PICK THE BEST PERSON FOR THE JOB.
4) As you have mentioned, you need someone with significant legislative experience to help you get your agenda through Congress.
I personally believe that Newt Gingrich meets all of those qualifications EXCEPT #2 and #3. He is an invaluable resource that cannot be ignored or tossed to the side. But he’s probably not the best Veep candidate. Use him as your Chief of Staff, and have him on the committee making Veep recommendations to you. Oh, and listen to him on the EMP issue - this country is INCREDIBLY vulnerable to such an attack, and it allows nutty leaders like those in Iran and North Korea threaten us.
At first glance Fallin looks like a very good conservative.

I had been wishing to see Marsha Blackburn a VP candidate.
Probably won’t since the south is a Trump lock anyway.
Trump should pick Tom Cotton-Sen-R (AR). Traditional conservative and US Army combat vet.
JUDGE JEANINE PIRRO!!!!!
He can float the list all he wants. It makes for good sport. But in the end Trump needs to resist the “must pick a woman” meme and pick a conservative white male legislator that will help him (1) woo the traditionalists, (2) shore up his blue collar support, and (3) reinforce his “sick and tired of PC” message. And it ought to be someone who knows the ropes in Washington, not a state governor.
Lt.Col. Allen West for VP.
Gingrich as Chief of Staff.
Donald needs to pick a gracious, vicious, charming, rabid, political savvy, fiscal conservative pitbull who does not know the definition of “No”, thinks out of the box and can defeat the likes of Pelosie, Reid, McConnell, etc. I don’t think these two women fit the bill.
Just yesterday the rumor mill had Gingrich as the shoo-in. I think there may be some data-mining of the social media responses to these trial balloons going on.
My money is on the nominee being a well-known, younger solid credentialed conservative from a swing state with a lot of Electoral votes (Ohio? Virginia? Florida?) who can put Trump over the top in that state.
I can say with 90% certainty it will be a woman.
OMG, he’s going to pick Roger Stone.
Allen West please
Bad choices. REALLY bad choices. No surprise.
I didn’t mind Brewer as our governor, but I think she would suck in a debate situation.
