Well, Rubio always has that Senate gig to fall back on... :)
Thank God.
Not eligible anyway
Chris Christie: How about someone from the swing state of Florida that is half Hispanic that has a proven record of standing up for himself
Donald Trump: George Zimmerman?
Wouldn't Huckabee be a better choice? Or better yet, let Trump surprise us.
Well at the risk of stirring up a hornet’s nest I would like to see him pick Newt. I think he’s probably the best qualified for the job.
Sure it is. Rubio let it be known he would have nothing to do with a Trump administration.
I think the “search committee” is a smokescreen; Trump already knows who he wants, and that person is being vetted by his own investigators now. It isn’t any name being fluttered about in the news either.
There is one thing to be said for the GOP in the post-Reagan era: it has been 80% at picking good VP candidates. Quayle was (and still is) severely underrated, then there was Jack Kemp, Dick Cheney, Sarah Palin, and any of those four would have been as least as good as President as their running mates. The only choice that flopped was Ryan. Trump will not make that kind of mistake.
Whoever he picks will be on board with the movement. A Rino is a big step back.
Good. Bubbles is an open-borders Establishment flunkie.
Kasich described himself as between Sanders and Hillary politically. That is a good VP pick?
Good, he is ineligible and an amnesty pimp.
I wish Trump just strung him along all summer long of hopes he’d might be the VP. It would be funny seeing him kiss Trump’s butt non-stop.
Longshot - Walker.
But it will be Kasich - executive political experience, swing state, patina of gravitas, not too conservative as focus moves decidedly towards the left. His sober persona counters Trump's loose cannon personality.
Donald is not going to pick anyone who is not a Natural Born Citizen. Rubio was, while being born in Maine, his parents were not naturalized till he was four. He is a naturalized but not natural born citizen.
I don't think Trump is going to pick a VP based on votes. He is going to pick someone who can take the baton to continue saving and rebuilding America.
Carson is a supporter of the Trump campaign.
Carson leaked names....as part of the Trump campaign.
They owned a piece of 2 news cycles with it. The talking heads talked about what Trump leaked.
I think he knows they are wind up toys.
I think Trump’s selection will be widely viewed by his supporters as a very wise choice. I suspect Trump knows the strengths and weaknesses of his possible choices by now. I saw Jan Brewer on Hannity again, and she was good but not great in her responses. She brings Arizona, and she fights. She knows the immigration argument forward and backward. She should show that when she’s on national TV. All that said, she did well.
Gingrich was on a couple of times. He was always in command. He has the verbal WOW factor and he fights like hell. He knows policy, both foreign and domestic, inside and out. And Romney hates him. He doesn’t bring a constitutency or a state, but he does bring the counter-argument to the Clinton’s “we balanced the budget.” He says, “Like hell. We FORCED a balanced budget.” He is fully ready to step in and be president if called upon. I also think he’d take ‘president of the Senate’ very seriously.
I like Newt, but he’ll be 73 by election day and with Trump 70 that’s putting two pretty old fellows at both the top slots, I’ve always kind-of of looked at the VP as the potential successor in waiting and would prefer somebody that’s a bit younger.
Palin....huckabee...christie
Good
