****NEW POLL****WHO WILL BE DONALD TRUMP'S VP PICK?

[Vulcan]

Other.

[ABX]

My new prediction.

[Smokin Joe]

Logic for any normal candidate would say Pence or Newt, but we aren't dealing with a normal candidate for a normal election cycle- this is pop culture driven. I think it will either be Christie for his mouth, or someone completely out of left field no one has overtly speculated on yet (media, pop culture figure?)

Bernie Sanders to bring in the disaffected Democrat vote.

[Smokin Joe]

As I've said before, if elected I highly doubt Trump has the temperament to serve a full term. His life style will be ghetto compared to what he is used to and having the Secret Service controlling his every move will soon cause him to quit. I'd be a lot more comfortable with Newt succeeding him..

What was it people said about Ross Perot? That his wife would have trouble moving into a smaller house in a bad neighborhood?

[geronl]

Miss July 2025 would be about 9 years old right now. lol

[Stosh]

He'll pick Bernie Sanders (S) as he has already been attacking Killary, and they agree on so many policy positions.

Not to worry, his hotel on Penn Ave is almost finished. I am sure he will have a lavish pentbouse there

[R4 TrumPence]

tRump supporters (over at TOS) wait for news of his veep pick:

I have to admit that. Is funny and they are so cute!

[East of the Beast]

well if we gotta go with the Donald I'd like a conservative as VEEP....Sessions would be my choice

[Lando Lincoln]

Yes, that is the kind of humor that evokes a smile regardless of your position. Well played.

[M1078]

I voted "Other" since "Couldn't Care Less" wasn't a choice.

See... She will be the perfect age for Trump Wife #6.

You're going to get @Jazzhead all excited.

I think Kasich may think he has an agreement, but I'm not convinced it will be honored.

Kasich brings more than most realize.  During the primaries, Kasich was the only candidate who consistently beat Hillary in almost every poll.  He has both leadership and legislative experience as Chairman of the House Budget Committee and served on the Armed Services Committee.  He knows his way around the Beltway and has demonstrated an ability to sit down with the other side when necessary.  Most of all, he brings Ohio with him.  Trump could do much worse with some of those popular here on this forum.

[ABX]

Based on the just released speaker list, it looks like it is going to be Newt.

Other.  It's a tossup between Honey Boo Boo and Spongebob Squarepants.

[Wingnut]

I voted "Other" since "Couldn't Care Less" wasn't a choice.

Or my 1st choice:  Dead Skunk In The Middle Of The Road.  Stinking to high Heaven

[politicalwit]

I voted "OTHER." The Cheeto Bandito wasn't on the list.

Technicolor, man!

[Idiot]

Technicolor, man!

On Drudge.....Pence is the pick...

John Kasich's reputation is that of being prickly to work with—comes into a meeting room full of friends and leaves with a room full of enemies.

Trump's family may hold sway this time, Mr. Trump will select governor Pence.

Miss JulI

Isn't that his wife?

I'm for anyone but Christie. The only good thing he's doing to my states economy is visiting restaurants.

[Wingnut]

Technicolor, man!

Nice catch!    :)    :broc:

I agree totally.  He is extremely well-versed in the legislative process.  A skill that will be needed.  Ohio always teeters on the knife's edge.  Kasich could be the difference.

Prickly does describe him, but along with enemies, at the end, he leaves with successes.  I don't know if Pence fits in with Trump's personality, though I guess we'll find out.  One thing's for sure, Pence won't overshadow Trump.
