As I said, predicting a VP choice is nearly impossible until the last minute because the situation is fluid. A candidate might need some help in a key state, based on current polling. Or the opponent might open up a new line of attack that needs a defense. A lot can change in a few weeks.
But as of today, and according to the Master Persuader filter, I put the odds at 90% than Trump picks Brown as his running mate.

Trump picks Brown—Hands the White House to Clinton.
Sorry Scott Adams, it will be Newt Gingrich. Scott Brown has scant experience when placed alongside Newt’s.
Corrine Brown?!?
isn’t brown a rino?
Newt is too old. Could be chief of staff though.
Nah. Trump needs a trusted conservative from West of the Mississippi, or South but two Northeast guys - not so much!
I would have to look at it some more...but surely a possibility that we're ignoring.
Brown is a Mitt Romney liberal. Why would he pick him?
Since when was “Justin” a lower-class name? All the modern Justins I know are clearly from the upper-middle class.
And Brown is a bad idea. If last name were as Adams suggests so important, I’d think Marsha Blackburn would win out anyway.
Yeh I don’t think so. Brown is too liberal.
Pure speculation, and not very persuasive.
We need someone who can carry on the revolution.
The list is not very long, and Brown is not on it.
Sorry....he’s pro-choice....and Massachusetts....a problem from the beginning!!
The most IMPORTANT thing for Trump’s VP pick is that he’s good looking with nice hair. Gotta lure away those female Hillary voters and yes, the typical female voter is THAT shallow.
I’m starting to think Scott is a better analyst than a prognosticator. I don’t see Brown as a running mate in my old crystal baw.
I’m going to let Trump surprise me when he tells us who his VP will be..........
“Newt is too old.”
That’s a good thing.
Makes Trump look younger. Someone like Rubio would make him look old.
Plus, nobody knows the Clintons better than Newt.
Not my first choice but it could work.
Picking an underqualified woman or latino would be the kiss of death.
My choice would be a retired general like Mattis or McChrystal.
Not only is Brown a rino, but he's a two-time loser, having lost the Mass Senate seat to Fauxcahontas, and then losing the New Hampshire Senate race. He is, as Trump would say, "a loser".
So I doubt it. Dilbert has been amazingly perceptive about Trump but this one I doubt. (He does say that he could change his mind tomorrow. BTW Jim Webb would be an out-of-the box choice with legislative experience, and he's more conservative than Trump!)
