Jeff Sessions or Rick Scott seem like the best picks.
There they go again! Projection is a wonderful thing once you know what it is!
I predict that Trump will continue to make Progressive and GOPe heads spin to the point one will need raincoats at the convention to ward off the spewing split pea soup. You know, Kinda like a Gallagher stage show with the Sledge-A-Matic.
Trump / Hunter would be an awesome ticket, Congressman Duncan Hunter Jr. of California is a combat veteran, a true conservative, and his Dad (also a combat veteran and one of the original Reaganauts of 1980) served us all well when he was in the House.
No Chris Christie. Will not vote is he is on the ticket,because that will signs Trump is a gun-grabber, and then we’ll have two gun-grabbers in the race: Trump and Clinton.
Forget the RINOS
REAGANS biggest mistake was George Bush
It’ll probably be Christie since he’s been sucking up early and often. Carson brings nothing to the ticket. Haley will bring even more flack from unions. Ayotte is running for reelection. Rice is too establishment. Scott and Sessions are interesting choices, but since the pick would spend the next four to eight years in anonymity living in Trump’s shadow then one has to wonder if they would be willing to do that.
Sessions and Carson are both acceptable, the others aren’t.
Kelly Ayotte, for example, is one of the 95 percent of GOP elected officials who are not conservatives.
Conservatives in New Hampshire have a primary challenger running against Ayotte and if she wins, another Conservative will run as an Independent in the general election.
Two northeast liberals? Hell no! May as well crown the Hilderbitch and be done with it.
Though I understand the attraction to have Scott the Governor of Florida run as VP with Florida playing a huge role in population and electoral college votes...
He could not be a worse pick...
He has the personality of a robot, only a barely decent public speaker...
Plus Trump needs a VP who is familiar with how DC works...
Scott is as much as an outsider like Trump...
1. Christie - He!! no
2. Scott - He!! No
3. Carson - Vood man, but no
4. Quote - He!! No
5. Sessions - No
6. Haley - Possible, but probably not
7. Rice- Possible, but doesn’t bring much to the table
Better choices are:
Susana Martinez, New Mexico
Mia Love, Utah
Nice of the Dems to try to help out. though!
Christie and Trump play to the same demographic...those who like a loud, obnoxious man in NJ-NY style.
Megyn Kelly, Carly Fiorina, Nikki Haley, Joni Ernst, Mia Love, Meg Whitman would all appeal to a different demographic and add balance.
Rubio? It turned out he was lazy and not up to the time consuming schedule needed of a candidate. Cruz is a hard worker. Just the opposite of Rubio in a crucial factor.
Kasich is out of touch with reality...another Romney. He jumps into the race late with no strategy except Ohio. We need Ohio. But we also need a national campaign. A one-state campaign is not enough.
He got out to take care of business he was elected to do.
Rubio and Cruz simply collected their paychecks. Those are reeeeeeally big welfare checks.
A question for the board ...
Since Trump would certainly mix things up across the government, doesn't it make sense that the role of the VP would redirect under a Trump presidency?
A VP seems to be a figurehead in the shadows (bar the Senate responsibility which is important) ... perhaps some of that would change.
I always thought McCain should let Palin go solve the countries energy problems as a sort of 'energy czar' (hate to use the term but you know what I mean).
My prediction is Palin.
Rick Scott, Scott Walker, either would be very good.
I don't think so, not as VP... by Carson supporting Trump now, that sends a message to Christians and evangelical voters that Carson Christian principles are not that deep...
Being a Christian and evangelical voter myself, it moves me zero...
Newt!
My dark horse choice is Georgia Senator David Perdue.
Reality? Between two candidates, they account for about 75% of the vote, just off the top of my head, and about the same proportion of delegates, and despite some hefty smears of late, are the two outsiders. If not for the latest vitriol, the unifying force is obvious.
