The politician who tops the list of preferred running mates for former President Donald Trump in a new poll in a key northeastern swing state is not even a Republican.
Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii, who ran for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination but left her party two years later to become an independent, stands atop the list in a new University of New Hampshire Survey Center poll
Gabbard stood seven points ahead of multi-millionaire biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, who was one of roughly a dozen candidates who unsuccessfully challenged Trump for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination.

“Tim Scott is my guess.”
Good guess. Probably the best choice.
She’s a lightweight
Rationalization is fun. I get it.
The Trump’s VP will be the presumptive front runner for the 2028 presidency. Trump is not going to be able to finish transforming the federal government in a mere 4 years and it is imperative that the next president is able to continue what he starts. We’re in deep doo-doo as a country and need someone with the stomach and drive to continue the march through the agencies wielding the reform hammer in the face of relentless opposition. Therefore, neither squishy “former” liberals (talking about you Ms. Gabbards), milquetoast academicians (sorry, Ben), or country club insider Republicans should be considered. We need a young, articulate, ideological warrior type of running mate with a pure conservative pedigree.
NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!
No. Hell NO!
Trump is anti-2A?
News to me.
What are Gabbard’s current or recent positions on things like the 2nd amendment?
She's a service veteran, big plus. A former Democrat like Trump. Moderate like him. She needs to address 2nd amendment, among other issues. What are her present stands?
Banned more guns than Obama did.
I'm still going to vote for him but his actual record on gun rights is troubling. In his heart, Trump is an old-fashioned New York City liberal on social issues.
I believe that, unlike most other Samoans, Tulsi Gabbard’s father is a US citizen from birth through his father and grandfather, Benjamin Harrison Gabbard Jr. and Sr. Her mother is also a US citizen, born and raised in Indiana and Michigan.
I’d have to search again but I recall he is a US National, not a US citizen.
So much deception in these days.
