If you start out to get your car repaired and your first thought is that “the mechanic must have a vagina”, you have already committed a bad error.
You want the best mechanic.... end of story.
At this moment, the USA is the most indebted entity in all of human history. And second place doesn’t even come CLOSE. We are flirting with WWII with Russia, China, and Iran... all at once. Inflation is out of control. About 10 million completely unknown and unvetted migrants have flooded into the country. We are in the sights of the Palestinians now.
The FBI is completely corrupt and there have been several stolen elections since 2020.
We do not have time for unserious boutique projects. Right now it’s time for a man to get this country shaken out. We don’t need a distracting nurturing, consensus building woman bring those female traits. And at Trump’s age, the veep cannot be weak.
No time for girl boss games.
NO BABY KILLERS.
THIS IS NON-NEGOTIABLE.
i will not risk the L--d's eternal wrath for earthly political pragmatism.
Stefanik would be good.... but on her merits, not her sex. And it could only help with NY.
Cool story. Have either of them sued the media that published that story?
Didn’t think so.
I am a woman, and I have no desire for Trump to pick a woman. The same can be said for all of the Trump women I know.
No one of them is right for the job. Much less right for president itself, which could happen.
Trump will need votes from people other than his supporters to win the general.
No, she had her head up McCarthy's ass. She must be in mourning now that he's leaving. She's lost her sugar daddy.
No thanks. I wouldn't vote for anyone who went out and actively campaigned for Bernie Sanders.
A lot of people if she is the best candidate
I was surprised looking at the odds and seeing mostly women at the top.
Noem is the current betting favorite but its very early to mean much but mostly women at the top seems meaningful.
Tell that to Trump. He thought Pence had a much more expansive role.
Nope. She chickened out on January 6th, bought into the propaganda spread by the media, and changed her planned vote to reject Biden's electors. She's got no loyalty, and no backbone.
The one role Pence COULD have done , but did not , has made him a Benedict Arnold forever.
It was DeSantis not that long and we all saw how that went.
All that and not one man’s name-
maybe Noem, Stefanik and the rest of the female betting choices are the best choices.
She will be a great choice for vp nominee in the future.
Well said.
“No one of them is right for the job. Much less right for president itself, which could happen.”
Please explain why.

I’ve been intermittently troubled about Gabbard since she first gained MORE fame by being OUT of office than IN it,and at this point that encompasses a mighty big time frame. I take her stances and all her statements with a grain of salt. I think when it comes down to it, she’s a Deep State choice, and her place among the same group of Globalists as “future stars” like Pete B and so many others, renders her suspicious at best for me. But easy on the eyes, for sure, nowhere nearly desirable as much in ANY department as Kari Lake, though. She (KL) been vocally LOYAL, Tulsi has never come out with any strong support for Trump. Would welcome anyone proving me wrong.
I'm a woman too, and a woman running mate for Trump isn't of interest to me. I want him to pick someone who has already been proven to be steadfast, trustworthy, and loyal to him and the country.

Stefanik gained national attention during the 2023 United States Congress hearing on antisemitism by the House Education and Workforce Committee, in which she asked pointed questions to the presidents of three major universities: Liz Magill of the University of Pennsylvania, Claudine Gay of Harvard University, and Sally Kornbluth of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In a viral line of questioning, Stefanik asked UPenn’s Magill, whether “calling for the genocide of Jewish people” constituted bullying or harassment. Magill responded that it was “context-dependent”, which drew criticism from Congressmen & UPenn donors; and eventually led to her resignation as UPenn’s president. Following the announcement, Stefanik tweeted “One down. Two to go.” During the hearing, when MIT president denied hearing any calls for genocide, Stefanik claimed that chants of “Intifada” (Arabic) are often considered as a “call for the genocide” by the Jewish people.
The hearings were held in the wake of several anti-Israel protests at university campuses following the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel, and the presidents were criticized for failing to adequately condemn those attacks. In the hearing, Stefanik also had a tense exchange with Harvard’s president Gay over allegations of antisemitism at Harvard’s campus, asking her, “At Harvard, does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard’s rules of bullying and harassment, yes or no?”, and Gay answered, “It can be, depending on the context.”

Stefanik criticized Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris climate agreement, saying it was “misguided” and “harms the ongoing effort to fight climate change, while also isolating us from our allies”.
Stefanik opposed Trump’s 2017 executive order imposing a temporary ban on travel and immigration to the United States by nationals of seven Muslim-majority countries.
On December 19, 2017, Stefanik voted against the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. In a December 18 Facebook post, she wrote, “The final bill does not adequately protect the state and local tax deduction that so many in our district and across New York rely on ... New York is one of the highest taxed states in the country, and families here rely on this important deduction to make ends meet.”
