WASHINGTON — A top military adviser to Donald Trump is being vetted to be his running mate, The Post has learned.

The outspoken and brash Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn — who was forced out of his post by the Obama administration in 2014 after pointing out the rising global jihadist threat — has already briefed the Republican presidential candidate on several occasions and is in close touch with high levels of Trump’s staff.

Flynn joins the ranks of GOP politicians being looked at for the high-profile pick, including former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence and Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa.

Trump spent the holiday weekend with two of the contenders.

“Spent time with Indiana Governor Mike Pence and family yesterday,” Trump tweeted Monday morning. “Very impressed, great people!”

Yo Donny. At this point it doesn't really matter that you were impressed with them. What matters is if they were impressed with you. That seems to be where you are losing them...

Too true!  Folks of integrity are avoiding Trump's epic clusterflip like the plague.

Normally no one remembers who was the running mate of a losing POTUS candidate.  But in The Orange dumps case... no one in their right mind want to be associated with a POS that will lose the election by the largest margin in modern history.

This short list is about as long as the DC phone book. It seems like we have a new name every few hours.
