Trump: Our country needs my anger [but will still consider Haley for VP]
The Hill ^ | 01/13/2016 | Lisa Hagen

Posted on 01/13/2016 6:05:58 PM PST by GIdget2004

Haley has condemned Trump's proposal to temporarily ban Muslims from entering the country.

Trump said he'd still consider Haley on his list for vice president if he wins the GOP nomination, but again questioned her on immigration and border security.

"She's not doing real well right now, but I'm sure she'd be somebody who would be considered," Trump said.

Haley would have a better chance of juggling flaming chainsaws while unicycling than being Trump’s VP.

Diplomacy Trump style.

Ha haaaaa!

Trump continues to run rings around amateurs like Ryan, Priebus, et al GOPe RINOs.

He didn't take the bait.

They were so damned sure Trump would say something sexist or racist about Haley and he didn't give them the satisfaction.

After the SC primary is over Trump should not consider her. She is attempting to defeat his primary chances.

Exactly right. Trump is always thinking several moves ahead, which is why most of those who have tried to outmaneuver him end up behind the ol' eight ball.

Thanks - it’s getting scary, I nailed it with him and Carson too when I said that Trump was mentioning that Carson tried to kill his mother and was “pathological” (Carson did say both in his book)...in order to get Carson’s past into the news as it was being spiked by the media and Carson’s numbers weren’t dropping as they should have been by then (they did shortly after that).

Trump later said exactly what I said when asked why he was going after Carson in what has to be considered a rather mean way.

I’m almost at the point of keeping quiet when I suspect what Trump is up to...or he won’t be able to get away with it.

...If he wins the general election, the GOPe and the democrats would join together and impeach him on bogus charges.

If that ever happened, there would be hell to pay and there's a good chance a bloody revolution would ensue.

“Trump said he’d still consider Haley on his list”

It costs nothing for Trump to put Haley on his VP list, but in all probability, number 517,324th on the list has little chance.

...Trump is so unscripted

Yes, and also upredictable — a very valuable asset for a negotiator.

I agree with those who say Trump is merely doing this to diffuse the situation and perhaps hopes to win an ally later on.

Haley was between a rock and a hard place because she vested too much in the Bush family and the GOPe.   That was the winning ticket in the past, but it is no longer.   Perhaps when the time is right, Haley could be useful to shore up GOPes at the convention.   Maybe that's what Mr. T has in mind.

You can't stump the Trump... and it's hard to outsmart him, too :- )

Bingo. You win the “astute” prize.

I can say “yes” to Trump though I am for Cruz, but it’s a huge “no” to Haley no matter who nominates her for V.P.

He won’t, he is just posturing prior to the S.C. primary.

The day after is a different story.

Haley the Hack was picked by Partial Republican Paul Ryan, and Mostly Liberal Mitch McConnel.
ANOTHER BIG REASON RYAN NEEDS PUT IN HIS PLACE BY BEING PRIMARIED. THIS JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU RYAN WILL ONLY GET WORSE.
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF RYAN HAS A PRIMARY CHALLENGE?????
