Dems ‘fear’ this possible Trump VP pick who ‘could spell the end for Biden’
Nypost ^ | 06/09/2024 | By Fox News

The race to determine who will be Donald Trump’s running mate this November took a major step forward last week with the acceleration of vetting multiple potential candidates, but political insiders with deep knowledge of presidential campaigns say there is one possible name on the former president’s shortlist Democrats “fear” the most.

Trump’s campaign recently entered the next phase of the running mate search by requesting documents from several prospective contenders, including Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who has grown to be a staunch ally of the former president since running against him in the 2016 Republican presidential primaries.

“Rubio is a familiar face who has become one of the strongest voices in the Senate for the America First agenda, is excellent on TV, and can blast Biden effectively for his failed policies,” one top GOP strategist told Fox News Digital.

In this election I am not sure it matters that much who Trump picks as VP. This election is all about Trump.

Oh HELL NO!!!! He is part of the DC elitist backstabbing RINO swamp! The four years Trump was president we literally forced Rubio to defend Trump. No definitely not him! If that’s the case, he might as well go with VR!

Vivek would be great. But I’m afraid a lot of evangelicals would stay home if he’s picked. Just a feeling.

He’ll have to go into Detroit and work for those votes. Being from there and being AA is an obvious advantage.

Let’s hope he’s just on Trump’s list as a token Hispanic.

Because compromised, neocon, Little Marco would be a disaster.

Your link doesn’t say it’s “not an issue”.

Apparently this is the Democrat version of the Brer Rabbit technique: "Not Marco Rubio! Anyone but Marco Rubio! We're so afraid Trump will pick Marco Rubio!"

JD Vance seems like the pick that makes the most sense right now.

Did you read that? How do you know this won’t be a close election?

“J D Vance. End of story”

###############

JDV would be an ENORMOUS mistake. That would doom Trump to CERTAIN defeat.

JDV brings NOTHING to the ticket, and would likely DETRACT votes from Trump.

His ideology and his ability to govern as VP means NOTHING if Trump loses in November.

For Trump to win, he needs votes from the middle. JDV just doesn’t do that.

I’m sure you are a good person and mean well, but you sound like the Freepers in 2020 who wanted “Jefferson Beauregard Sessions” for VP/AG, because to them it sounded cool to say that.

That said, Sarah Sanders or Byron Donalds are my current faves.

Glenn Youngkin would be an interesting sleeper pick and possibly help to deliver VA in 2024.

Is No Order...

Larry Elder. He would rape (in a verbal fashion, of course) his debate opponent, whoever it is.

Rand Paul. The deep state and administrative state would fear him.

JD Vance. He seems loyal and competent. But too nice.

There are others...

But the orange dumbass will pick another weakling christian cuck israel ass kisser or big tittied bimbo backstabber.

But does it even matter?

........I’m not in favor of a woman for President because Trump has proven one thing and that is that it doesn’t take just a man to withstand the communist onslaught it takes a REAL MAN of which, when it comes to National Politics, Trump is the ONLY proven REAL MAN we have. All the rest are sopranos.

But, that said, I don’t always get my way so if it has to be a woman I agree with your “likeable and smart conservative woman” description so I would suggest Harriet Hageman (R-Wyoming). She MAY be America’s answer to Margaret Thatcher.
