All true and Sessions provided his staffer, Stephen Miller to Trump as an adviser. I think Stephen is awesome and hope he gets a great position in a Trump Admin.

In OH, Jim DeMint is the ONLY Republican in the spotlight who hasn't let conservatives down. I wonder if he'd hold up in the national spotlight, where he's untested, or if he's well enough known to be a good choice.

I wonder about Senator Portman. He's too liberal on a lot of issues, but he has a lot of experience, he's well informed, and he's intelligent. He seems to have been very careful to not criticize Trump or Trump's supporters.

Newt knows every facet of our government...and he knows everyone. His experience is invaluable.

Maybe chief of Staff. I believe Newt and Donald talk all the time.

Maybe Sessions for VP.

West for Sec of Defense.

Should, God Forbid, anything happen to DJT, Jeff Sessions is the ONE person with whom I could feel TOTALLY comfortable, to carry on the Trump agenda.

Let Jeff’s aide, Stephen Miller, run for Sessions open seat, and then, in four years, slip Miller into the VP slot, positioning him for an 8 year DJT followup!

He said in an interview today he is looking strongly at one of his running mates that has not endorsed him yet but they will come along!!! I know it is not Cruz because he said he NEDDS someone who can work with the senate, Cruz is HATED by everyone in the senate!!! Kasich is really the only one I would be devastated over maybe Rand Paul but my gut tells me Rubio!!!

Don’t even think of a VP as a future prez. It is such a rare occurrence.

Only Christie has shown himself to be loyal enough to be V-P.

Another thing I like about Sessions...he does not seem to have crass political ambitions......we’ve seen what ambition makes these characters do

Marco “Mr. Bubbles” Rubio is an amnesty pimp. No way Jose.

Here is a very good recent interview with
Senator Sessions if anyone has the Sound Cloud
app and the time. It’s 56 min long but well
worth the time.

I believe Sen Sessions should be and perhaps
will be VP. He addresses how he met Trump,
immigration, and how and why he has come to
agreement with Trump on Trade policy.

Remember how those who have dealt with DJT negotiating deals have always said they could NOT figure him out, no matter how hard they tried? He is a MASTER at surprise. He is genius.

Only a stupid person would pick Rubio who would most likely HURT him in FL, and, Rubio is a PRO amnesty war-monger, who years ago was yapping about how US troops needed to invade Libya. I say it is a diversionary move. : )

Fallin has been in Congress—and also the strongest guv on illegal immigration.

No—Sessions os old like Trump.

I think Mary Fallin is a good age with a great resume—and actual backbone on illegal immigration.

I’m also thinking Rick Perry is on the short list. He’s not a bad choice. Newt is not a bad choice either.
