“Vivek should be the VP.”

Given the voters’ traditionally-short memories, I’d suggest DeSantis. (Whose very name draws Latinx).

Byron Donalds (FL), if Trump needs one who speaks ALMOST as powerfully as Vivek.

Kash Patel.

But when speculating openly on TV, Trump would gain “insurection” support by choosing Ray Epps. ;)

All hearsay and baseless speculation. Those pictures are innocent.

You may be right. But Madison Cawthorn made a good point before he left Congress. So feel free to ponder on that.

Yes. Tim Scott will totally screw up the campaign in media interviews. He can’t handle them. Donalds and Vivek can.

NO SALE it’s token shopping.

The country can’t withstand any more of it.

i’ve been predicting tim scott as a probable VP contender:

Scott fulfills several important VP criteria:

1. pretty much a non-entity (like Pence)

2. willing to exist for four years in a twilight zone of a non-job (like Pence)

3. no threat intellectually (like Pence)

4. likely to toe the MAGA line (like Pence)

5. most importantly though, member of important vocal protected class that normally votes Democrat (unlike Pence) ... plus makes it difficult for the leftist fascist media to attack Trump as racist, and impossible to attack Scott’s race without offending and pissing off the entire cohort at the same time ...

Im not of the mind that the VP needs to be the front runner for 2028 sobi am open to someone who would bring the party unity (if that is realistic). Nikki is a no for me only based on her performance since losing NH but Sununnu would be fine with me. I think he’s a fool but if thry were convinced that he’d play well in a certain demographic and would all but ensure a Trump victory I would find it acceptable. Just don’t give him any power once there. I don’t think it would work out that way but I’m not the type to say if Trump picks X then Im off the train. All thst said, let’s wrap up the primary and not become complacent

He’ s got to improve with the black and female vote. Maybe either of these or a black woman. One thing for sure he won’t be taking advice from the GOPe. This morning for the first in months since the firing of Tucker I watched Trump’s interview with Maria Bartiromo, it was excellent.

Black females are a lost cause—time to get real about that.

It comes with the territory. What do you think will happen if Trump decides Noem is the VP? MSM will attack, attack and attack.
