If true Donald needs a woman VP...Joni who?? Palin? The rats have destroyed her credibility. Judge Jeanine? Smart, well known, fearless, staunch Conservative- and beautiful to boot!

She is very good speech maker, with much more adult sounding voice instead of high pitched voice of some others. She is a fighter and has excellent credentials.

IMHO, this election will be very close, and we should leave nothing to chance.

Trump should choose someone who will either deliver a battleground state or enhance a demographic. Sessions doesn’t do either of those.

Trump would increase his chance if he chose someone like Marsha Blackburn, Gov Fallon, or Allen West.

Not Sessions, Gingrich, Hunter, Demint, Cruz, or Abbott.

West would not increase a demographic.

And again, if he loses general appeal, that hurts in tight states and with specific demographics.

I like Fallin, however, and think she would be a solid choice.

‘newt has been one of the few insiders who has not treated trump poorly.’

Except for the time he joined the leftist/MSM feeding frenzy over the fact that Trump referred to a judge who holds Mexican citizenship [dual] and membership in LaRaza as a Mexican. That was pretty disgusting.

For some reason, Newt makes me think of what Thomas Jefferson would have loved like in person...

I suppose that’s the major part of the problem with American politics.

Nobody cares about the globalist leanings many have that would surrender the few freedoms we have left to faceless central czars.

I heard most of it. The judge pulls no punches, and it is a good thing she packs a good sized pistol.

This morning Sheriff from Milwaukee called Obama a pyromaniac for his statements regarding BLM. I thought that was so appropriate.

As much as I dislike these two for amnesty leanings, Kasich or Rubio could be the most beneficial electorally.

But I have been rooting for Rep Marsha Blackburn for a long time.

A fair and accurate assessment of party development.
My core point is direct and simple. Post-Civil War Industrial Capitalism evolved from the pre-Civil War Merchant Class. It was aided and abetted by a progressive mentality which the Republicans provided through their executive action, legislation and judicial rulings which centralized power in DC and eviscerated the vision of our Founders.

Ike couldn’t have done more damage if he had served as a Democrat, and probably given the GOP a fighting chance to not have ended up as a permanent minority party for the better part of 6 decades.
...........
I would have laid that at the feet of Nixon who made mortal enemies on the left while being himself something of a leftist.
