Vance is a terrible picI don't have a dog in this hunt. I'm not going to vote for him, whoever he picks. But I do think that both of those would be bad picks for him.
Vance offers little contrast to Trump. And Trump is a candidate who needs contrast (given his previous pick of Pence, it would seem he understands this).
Carson offers a great deal of contrast. But he has little, if any, executive experience in the public or private sectors. I realize he was a cabinet secretary. But that's really not the same thing.
I think the overall best pick would be Youngkin -- assuming he would accept it. He's not exactly been a full-throated Trump supporter. The second best pick would be Nikki Haley -- assuming she would accept it.
Of the names that have been floated, I think Burgum would be the best one.
I would agree.Vance is a terrible pic
Agree on Vance, plus I just don't like him personally.I don't have a dog in this hunt. I'm not going to vote for him, whoever he picks. But I do think that both of those would be bad picks for him.

What a sad state of affairs if that's the reasonVance, Vivek, Carson, and maybe Tulsi would be the only sensible picks. Almost everyone else guarantees assassination. Trump has to have insurance. The Deep state hates Vance possibly more than Trump.
Vance would be no slam dunk in 2028, unless he shows something more before then. I don't think he would make it out of the Primaries as nominee.I would agree.
But I could totally see Trump making that pick -- making Vance the heir apparent that Mike Pence could never really have been.
Vance is on record multiple times disparaging Trump.I would agree.

I'm all for Youngkin... My 2nd choice would be Burgum due to his business background...Vance is on record multiple times disparaging Trump.
Carson is an ethical, highly intelligent and competent man, unsullied by a lifetime of partisan political dirty tricks and CIA/Mossad blackmailing Ops.
The country needs this.
The only thing Democrats should be thrilled by if it's Vance is the fact that the Veep has almost no constitutional power to actually do anything.Democrats should be thrilled if its Vance. He'd likely be the candidate in 28...and that increases the Dems chances of winning the office back...really no matter how well the Trump admin does during their term.
I can't fathom a climate that won't include Trump fatigue. His constant antics and rhetoric ARE going to remind non MAGA voters why they voted him out in 20'. Obviously if his policy decisions work out well, that'd help Vance...but there's a good chance the pendulum will swing back to "No More Trump" for a lot of the voters that decide these elections...again, just because of who Trump is and how he is going to lead. Vance, as of today, doesn't help that for the GOP.
Someone the media isn’t suspectingSo the Giant Douche is picking his Turd Sandwich?
My money is on Burgum.
He's just like Trump though...Above the Law and Hard to KillSomeone the media isn’t suspecting
He might be an upgrade on the in house security side of things... 😉Someone the media isn’t suspecting
He and Rubio are reportedly out of the running... (per Fox 2:14pm EST)My money is on Burgum.
Per Fox, I am wrong.My money is on Burgum.
Wars worldwide would end immediatelyHe might be an upgrade on the in house security side of things... 😉
VancePer Fox, I am wrong.
Rubio and Burgum out. It sounds like Youngkin is a serious 11th hour dark horse.
I can't fathom a climate that won't include Trump fatigue.
All trump wants is blind loyalty and someone not very intelligent so as not to show him up
Square that circle for me. Vance could be called many things but unintelligent is not one of them.Vance
Holy shit! You made a funny...on purpose! 😂He's just like Trump though...Above the Law and Hard to Kill
I was going to take the Putin Shill angle, but you win. I can't think of a shitpost to top that gem. Bravo!He's just like Trump though...Above the Law and Hard to Kill

Except for seagal has x ray vision and is an 11th degree black belt in Bullshito. Goat.I was going to take the Putin Shill angle, but you win. I can't think of a shitpost to top that gem. Bravo!
That makes him more scary. He actually knows better, but he is willing to push the Big Lie, he thinks Pence was a pussy and promises he would not have done what Pence was Constitutionally obliged to do, and he PRETENDS to believe every one of the ~30 lies that Trump spews in every hour that he speaks.Vance could be called many things but unintelligent is not one of them.
