You have an opinion, which you have NOT explained; it's just your "feelings".
I grew up virtually breathing politics' it's as mother's milk to me and I was taught by some of THE best in the business.
I have worked on local, state, and federal campaigns most of my life. I laid out, quite clearly, WHY Newt should be the VEEP choice for Trump. It is an educated, thought out, well reasoned opinion, which isn't based on emotion nor "feelings" of any kind, but facts.
Please do NOT take my word for any of this. Go back and look at my past posts about this primary season and how correct I have been about it.
I love Newt as Chief of Staff. VP? Not so much.
I don’t think Newt would be the best choice and I think Jonie Ernst (sp) would be a great choice. I saw her as very agressive and I doubt the media could demonize her and get away with it. Anyway it’s all academic because Trump has said he won’t announce his running mate until the convention. Lessen the danger of another person screwing up and costing him the presidency. He wants to depend on himself to win this one. All he needs is to have “behind the scene” experts to handle the land mines. If he announced now the person he chose would become just another target and another chance of a screwup. We all know how little it takes to create a disaster in a campaign. I’m with Trump on this one. Don’t announce till the last minute.
“pop a cork in memory of FReeper pissant”
May he rot in peace.
Worst. Freeper. Ever.
You said as much to me last night. I am not going to change my mind and you are not go change yours. That is just the way it is. Time to move on.
A lot of people have endorsed Trump by now. He will pick the one he thinks is best for the job and who will help him win. And other stuff.
Gingrich may be a valuable addition to his staff, but veep?
Sorry but don’t see that happening.
Hi cowboy. Did pissant pass or was he just zotted?
“Scott Walker”
Have you forgotten how Walker cursed Trump on his way out of the race? It was some of the most bitter sour grapes I’ve ever heard.
Well, that's one less thing I have to worry about this season. Thanks!!
I like Steven Miller, but he lacks experience and I don't think that he has ever run for anything nor held elected office. That's problematical.
Love Sessions, but he's too old.
Judge Jeanine lives in N.Y., so she's out and besides which, she would be better as AG!
Most ( perhaps all ) n00bs whom we thought were conservative, turned the minute they hit D.C. or became governors.
The VEEP needs to be a pitbull, without much to anything in his or her closet, and someone who gels with The Donald. Newt ain't it and neither is ANYONE who ran in the GOP primaries!
“Walker would also be a wise choice.”
Walker hates Trump’s guts. He advised the remaining candidates to take down Trump, on his way out of the race.
It won’t matter...Hillary will use everything there is on Newt and take Trump out that way. It’s the ONLY way she can beat Trump and she shall.
Windy...it’s useless....these people are worse than the rabid Cruz supporters. They won’t listen to reason and don’t know what they’re talking about. :-(
Yer Kidden?
Newt has been promoting and defending Trump for weeks!
Perhaps a requested formality before he’s named VP choice.
That’s been my guess for the last week.
He was ZOTTED long ago, Nan.
“Newt needs to be chief of staff, grappling with the egos and the nitty gritty, and twisting arms for Trump.”
Agreed. Newt’s talents would be wasted as VP.
Oh GOD all mighty...WHY do you have a death wish?
Thank you!
“Did pissant pass or was he just zotted?”
Just the zot, so he’s dead to Free Republic. Thank goodness.
Okay, here's your chance.......give me a detailed list of reasons WHY you believe that Newtie should be VEEP and WHY he wouldn't lose the election for Trump.
