Donald Trump May Drop JD Vance for Nikki Haley, Ex-Clinton Adviser Says
Newsweak ^ | Aila Slisco

Rumors of Trump suffering buyer's remorse after choosing Vance as his 2024 running mate have been rampant since President Joe Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the likely Democratic presidential nominee.

While Trump has publicly insisted that he is happy with Vance, saying the senator is "doing a fantastic job" and has been "very well received" by the public during a Fox News interview on Thursday, worries remain about whether the Ohio senator could be a liability for Republicans in November.

Paul Begala, who served as White House adviser and chief strategist during Clinton's successful 1992 campaign, suggested during a CNN appearance on Thursday night that Trump may decide to ditch Vance in favor of former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley.

I don’t know.

I think Trump chose Vance for Biden. He needs Tulsi for whathername.

And I already wanted Tulsi before. But she becomes very important now.

He needs to hold off though, for the final Dem pick.

I an not trolling.

At all. I have strongly supported Tulsi Gabbard for months.

I just think now, she becomes critical for Trump.

Besides she is nice. And a veteran.

Remember, the media is not there to inform you of the news. It’s there to form the news and your opinion.

The media has their marching orders. Pile on Vance with negative stories and provide constant fluff stories on Harris. They have given up on vilifying Trump to his supporters but figure they can get to Trump through Vance.

It’s just nonsense.

Trump goes and picks some establishment rino as his VP then he’ll lose a good bit of his support.

This is about the establishment trying to get an establishment person as VP and I don’t see it happening

They want it to happen so I’d expect a full onslaught on JD to try to destroy him and push his replacement

Agreed. I’m a woman. I told my sister today that the only woman president I’d want is one in the mold of Margaret Thatcher. Anything less, forget it.

Yeah, and Joe Biden is sharp as a tack. The next true story they tell will be the first.

I feel stupider from reading this article and a chunk of this thread.

This is beyond idiocy and the kind of stupidity that’s going to be run out into the public toilet that is the media multiple times per day, each day until the election.

Even if he wanted to, I don’t know how he’d do it and not face huge negatives.

The left is peeing their pants over Vance. Doesn’t apparently bother Trump or anyone on our side at the voter level.

Do I think hes an amazing choice? Maybe not amazing. But I am glad its not someone like Haley or some other insider, or some established deep stater.

I really think they’d love for Trump to change him, because then it would become a ballot issue, and then they could argue for ballot changes for Biden/Harris.

This has some interesting points about how the replacement would work. It already happened with Eagleton under McGovern (not that anything in that qualifies as “The past is prologue” as Wordsworth would say.-—McGovern dropped like a stone in a pond.)

Dropping Eagleton did nothing to bolster the failed 1972 Presidential campaign of George McGovern.

Exactly right. The last time a VP candidate was swapped out during the campaign it ended in disaster.

DJT remembers this.

They didn’t even have the cojones to put the Ex-Clinton advisor’s name in the title. It’s Paul (The Forehead) Begala for cripes. The Clinton me-too hack of the Clinton trio that engineered the win for Slick Willie (Georgie Steph, The Lizard, and Begala).

I like Tim Scott. He could counter Harris among black vote.
