I completely agree.
100%.
Don’t take the GOP for granted. For one entire generation they have been selling out America. Every single one of them.
Trump is the very first person, who will stand up to them.
I have read a lot of concern today that Cruz is still trying to usurp delegates. But the basic equation of “if the republicans try to steal the nomination from Trump the entire party will be permanently destroyed” is still true. They’d still be nuts to try it.
Trump’s VP pick will be Jim Webb.
Now it will be on record so I can brag about my prescience.
Newt for VP
I remember at one of his rallies he said that after what happened with Louisiana his eyes are wide open.
Smart move.
Don’t quit your day job!
Just say no to Newt. I don’t know why people want him. He’s disgusting.
“...that Cruz is still trying to usurp delegates....”
Well, Cruz has no where to go but back to the Washington country club and living off of lobbyists and Wall Street favors. After watching what we did, nothing would surprise me.
Yes smart move by Trump. I agree what he says and take time to ponder the VP pick until convention time.
Smart move!
He is a political genius, with experience. Whatever his human flaws, Newt Gingrich is a political genius.
Newt needs to be assigned to the TRUMP “kitchen cabinet”, for counsel and opinion at the ready. There is not much left out there that Newt hasn’t already seen, or certainly already calculated as to the possibilities and outcomes.
Besides, this will keep them talking and speculating, and covering him right up to the convention. More free publicity. Man is NOT a fool.
Not to mention his choice of VP is important and he will take is very seriously without regard to gender/ethnicity/religion/race, blah blah blah. I believe he will choose the person he thinks would best fill the POTUS role should anything happen to him.
Webb brings nothing needed.
Jeff Sessions is superior in every way. IMHO, Saxxon. :)
My guess is Sessions or Newt.
Haha, don’t have one, I’m happily retired!
Interesting...... Jim Webb has been trying to turn the Democrat party away from it’s socialist tilt for quite a while now. Jim is a West Va. Hillbilly, former highly decorated Marine , and Sec of the Navy under Reagan....Don’t let the Democrat tag fool ya, old southern style conservative with a protective bent for the veterans. Not saying yea, but interesting.....
In many ways Trump defies labels. His sole interest is America. Who can help him right the Ship of State will get the call. Those that love labels will be disappointed, America will not be.
Ted Cruz is intelligent, too, but Trump should not trust him for anything. Paybacks are a b!tch, and he didn't go quietly into the night. Sean did give him due credit today for taking some hard stands that cost him personally.
But both are now high on my unlikeble meter plus Newt is a carryover from an unpopular administration. I wasn't paying too much attention in those years to the machinations in Washington, just Desert Storm, and see that he was forced to resign as Speaker of the House, then he resigned from the House altogether.
Agree Sessions is superior.
That has nothing to do with how Trump will pick.
He’s taking a Democrat.
