Not really believing this. Hes made bad personal picks but these seem abnormally worse.
I get it, but they’d probably both be better choices than Pence was.
I hear that Ron DeSantis is thinking about getting back in and is asking people if Mitt Romney or Susan Collins should be on his shortlist for VP. Two sources have confirmed it to Fox News. Pass it on.
As long as Trump doesn’t die in office. For me, that’s the big risk with those picks.
Yes, or otherwise get removed from office.
Following the New York judge’s ruling 2 days ago, Ron Desantis is actively asking people if he should get back in and if Kevin McCarthy should be his running mate for VP. Two sources have confirmed it for the Daily Mail.
That's a good question.
Or Lee Zeldin.
Think about what you just wrote!! This is a do or die election... Trump must receive ALL VOTES no matter WHO he puts on the ticket....
Agree that carrying on his legacy would best psuggest Vivek, who is untainted by the deep state and has a plan to attack it head on.
Agreed. Scott is very low energy. Byron Donalds would be awesome; so would JD Vance.
Just wouldn’t vote for President or I’d vote 3rd party. If Trump picked any of those as his running mate, his judgment is too bad for him to be relied on. If Trump died in office, RFK Jr would be a nightmare for certain. Gabbard very possibly could be a nightmare. Haley would be a deep state puppet.
I’d hope for better in 2028.
Why?
Tulsi: Secy of State
To be clear, Laura Ingraham presented the names Vivek Ramaswamy, Ron DeSantis, Byron Donalds, Tim Scott, Tulsi Gabbard, Kristi Noem and asked if they were on the VP shortlist and Trump diplomatically said yes.
That doesn’t mean its limited to these names which some are assuming. pic.twitter.com/MYaFUYdpGc— Righteous⚡️Crusader (@Craftmastah) February 21, 2024
I hope it is Mark Robinson!
Exactly. Laura said the names and President Trump was respectful. He would never pick DeSantis and said just last month it would be HIGHLY UNLIKELY.
This guy, a consititional scholar say you can be rom the same state
Question: Does the U.S. Constitution prevent candidates from running for President and Vice President if they come from the same state? If so, why?
From Kevin Wagner
Answer: This is one of those rules that many people get wrong. There actually is nothing in the U.S. Constitution that prevents candidates for President and Vice President who live in the same state from running together. As a practical matter, it might be a bad idea, since presidential tickets are often put together to create geographic diversity. But, having two from the same state is permissible.
The confusion comes from a misinterpretation of the Constitution. Article II, paragraph 3 states that “The electors ... shall vote for two persons, of whom one at least shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves.” It’s a bit of unclear, but what it prohibits is an elector from casting both of his or her votes for candidates from the same state in which the elector lives.
We don’t need our own black midwits to counter theirs. The GOP never learns.
How do they get around the constitution? If two people from the same state are on the ticket, that state can only choose one.
