Yeah but when he talked he talked in a monotone voice and showed no enthusiasm of being there! To be honest he looked forced!
whew ... trump dodged that RINO bullet.
Sessions pls
AMEN...I would have a difficult time voting for Trump if he chose “Mama’s Little Corker!” What an unmitigated doofus!
As if he was ever in it.
LOL!
I do believe you’re right. I’m so glad he’s out.
I agree with you on General Flynn. Perhaps if more folks would read his biographical information, more would favor him. The US is ready for a high-ranking military person with such strong credentials. It’s the only way the military will be rehabilitated and more respect will be given about lives, military and civilian, that our lost during war. An accomplished military person won’t be frivolous about the loss and destruction of life.
How could Trump even talk to the scumbag who drafted the Nukes for Iran deal?
Or Michael Flynn
Can’t afford to lose a sitting Senator.
So...the VP spot is “too political” for a man who has been in politics for over 20 years?
Trump graciously gave him the opportunity to save face.
I’m thinking, on the subject of Newt, that it was the Left and the RINO’s who despised Newt.
The rank and file Republicans out here in the hinterlands got to watch Newt ring their tail as Speaker of the House. He is a consummate orator and has a revolutionary streak I always admired.
It was historic that he master minded the largest take over in 40 years of the House of Representatives in 94, was it? Anyway, he knocked some heads together on our side of the aisle, and got it done.
It’s natural that he would have some unforgiving enemies, thereafter.
Maybe but I would think Flynn for DOD. Trump wa ts an experienced legislator for VP.
Thank God.
Didn’t know he was in the running. Good.
but why must he be a Democrat ???
Now that is Great News!!! Mr. Trump can due a lot better that Corker.
Tell me someone better?
The FIRST issue in Trump choosing his VP isn’t WHO but WHAT.
WHAT is the single most important criteria for Trump’s VP? Someone who can take over the Presidency in eight years to continue the job of reinstating political freedom and the Constitution as the Rule of law in America.
Trump’s VP must be a person who in eights years, is ready, willing, and able to lead the effort to dismantle the unconstitutional 80% of the $4 trillion central government, leaving it the size of about $800 billion. Get rid of most of the unconstitutional cabinet bureaucracies. Nuke the utterly unconstitutional Administrative State from which all these unilateral, tyrannical, unconstitutional, and obnoxious executive laws (”regulations”) come from. Send hundreds of thousands of government workers, bureaucratic heads, and officials home packing. Sad day for them, but a great day for America and our Free Constitutional Republic.
Otherwise, this “Trump Movement” will be merely a speed bump on the Road to Serfdom as Hayek put it and as the Regan Revolution turned out to be because of the short-sighted choice of Bush as VP. Trump CANNOT make the same mistake.
WHO it is should be IMO, consistent with the anti-establishment push of this movement. Trump should pick an “unknown” - a talented, wise, and wealthy non-politician who loves America, probably a good businessman, who has a fire in his belly to do away with political correctness and tyranny and to put the central government into its constitutional cage. He’ll have eight years to figure out what he needs to know about the job. Also, a wealthy person, like Washington, Reagan, and Trump, would be less tempted to cash in on political expediency because he is already wealthy.
