That’s a beautiful sounding name. I’m from CA.

It will not be Rudy Giuliani. because they are from the same state. That causes issues with the delegates voting. Plus Trump has said he wants someone with legislative experience to get things through congress.

Gregg Abbott: The wheelchair would give the demodogs fits. He seems to be an honest version of Ted Cruz

Scott Walker: has a record of getting an agenda through demodogs. He also dropped out of the race early enough to miss most of the mud wrestling

Allen West: would add appeal and maybe draw some black votes

Gen. David Pretraeus might be fun

I’d like to see a VP from a state like California that is not normal Republican territory. It makes sense to tr and bring a Blue state into play

Another poster mentioned Duncan Hunter in that regard. I was thinking Martinez of New Mexico until she started bad mouthing the Donald.

My other thought was to reach out to either the Constitution or Libertarian party for a VP

Now that I look at him, Duncan D. Hunter looks very interesting. And he’s already endorsed Trump, to boot!

Kinda young, though.

You guys can’t seem to grasp the distinction of being the winner and the RNC joining Trump and being a loser and using Cruz.

He and his father were both Marines, if i’m not mistaken.

What’s not to like. He’s young, smart and patriotic.

I'm thinking Trump would rather someone more "splashy."

On his own, DDH would be somewhat anti-climactic. Then again, I don't put it past the Donald to MAKE HIM into a splash.

Now that a state full of liberal Republicans backed Trump in his first win over 50%, the GOPe is starting to think he might be their kind of guy after all.

Trump said he wanted someone who could work with the Congress so what about Sessions?

The only concern about Sessions is the guy is what 70+ years old?

But yeah otherwise

...but they want to see the billionaire do more to mend fences with the party establishment.

LOL! Cruz may mend some fences to try to get support for "saving the establishment", but Trump won't play those games - to him, the Party Establishment is as much the enemy as any other leftist organization.
