Trump won't announce his VP running mate until late Spring or early Summer. I would prefer somebody who has won an elected public office at least once. Did you vote for trump in 2016? I only ask because that was his first elected office. Donald Trump is the exception, his lifelong fight against state governments in pursuit of his business goals is unique.

I was watching 'Explain America' on Youtube tonight, and Carmine Sabia claims a woman journalist by the name of Maggie Haberman who has made a career of covering Trump well before he ran in 2016, thinks the noise about Tucker as VP is real. Haberman is supposed to have reliable sources inside the Trump circle. If true...wow. I'm saying he is going to take Kari Lake. kwg

And if you look at Tucker's rise to stardom, his very, very good ability to communicate, his huge fan base....that may be too small of a stage to hold both men. Kari might not threaten the top dog syndrome as much as Tucker.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

QUESTION: Can you name one thing the federal government does well, accomplishes, or achieves? One thing. Economy, healthcare, land management, mail, defense, justice, foreign intel, utilities oversight, tech oversight, energy, commerce, transportation etc etc. One thing? Please don't say defense, DOD failed audits the last 6 years, billions missing. Navy ships too computerized to meet mission. Airplanes no one wanted or needed etc etc.

Assuming someone who know something about campaigns and getting elected (few and far between in Republican politics) is advising him, he will be picking a popular governor or senator from a major swing state. One state like PA, MI, AZ, GA or WI could be and probably will be the difference.

Trump will not pick Tucker Carlson or Kari Lake. They would appeal to the people who would vote for Trump already. He needs to pick someone who would get him votes he would not get anyway. Niki Haley is very popular with suburban women, a voting demographic which Trump badly needs.
Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.
Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

I posted this 11/12 with no comments. I think it’s a great choice. Very few people trump trusts and I believe Flynn is one of them. Opinions?

Pompeo would be a good choice.
I'd like to see him pick Kari Lake. She's a cutie, a spitfire and don't take no "stuff" from reporters!

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.
