REPORT: Trump’s VP List Is Down To 4 Options

[Hoodat]

But we have to reign in the size of government and its spending or we’re in for a world of hurt. We’re starting to see the results of our debt now. Using government debt to artificially prop up GDP works for a short while, but I think we’re reaching the end of that


GDP is dropping while inflation is on the rise. This is serious shit

You got that right.  Our debt is rising faster than is GDP.  Let that one sink in.  Our debt rose $800 billion last quarter.  GDP only rose $375 billion.

If that is an official GDP number then it is far worse than that. The printed money injected into the economy is counted directly as GDP where absolutely nothing was produced to provide that money. It came out of thin air. That's very bad.

There were before the slime machine worked them over.

Are you saying conservative candidates for POTUS have been wusses?   Hmm...could you have stumbled onto a pivotal electoral problem?

Nah. It's not alright to lie about people in order to win.
THAT is the pivotal problem.

Very bad

And gained momentum during the Obama presidency and continued into the Trump and now the Biden administration


The MAGA  point of view is that they want to use a powerful  federal government  to enact revenge on their opponents. The problem is, they won’t wield that power forever and their opponents will one day wield an even more powerful government than it is now


Using the power of the federal government to enact revenge on your opponents is too short term thinking for me

[Cyber Liberty]

They would rather lose with Trump than win with a Conservative.

It's months too late for that.  If Biden hadn't decided to destroy Trump a different choice may have been made by the voters. 

I am inclined to agree with @roamer_1 in that no victory will happen in November, and it's not because Trump is on the ballot.

The time frame doesn't negate the fact what Trump has done to conservatism.  Brandon has already destroyed Trump; he had an election stolen from underneath him.

There will be no victory in November; at least not for the American people.

I think this is the most uncertain election that I've lived through.

Either candidate may not make it to election day with Biden being the most likely to be replaced. The demo convention is going to be interesting...

Yes, the Riots promise to be glorious.  I wonder if there will be a repeat in Milwaukee?

Things in general are very uncertain, just not the upcoming election.  I am confident of one thing; we as a country cannot continue on the current path that we are headed and survive.

Chicago, August 19-22 I'm sure will be a memorable convention and perhaps one for the history books.

The GOP convention is month prior and I see that as a disadvantage.

[collins]

I'd especially stay away from the DNC - the only way you'll get rid or Trump is to have one of these lefty whack jobs assassinate him. Biden could drop dead, his health is declining rapidly. I'm sure he has some form of dementia, you can see it worsening by the day now. He probably already is incapacitated but they'd better dump Kamala fast.

They'll be all kinds of riots this year, particulary after the election. We will probably see a REAL insurrection if and when they lose.

...hmm.... I don't see the DEMS losing and I think that they will make some sore of power play at the convention.  They're not going to give up power. 

The uprising may happen actually before the election and we won't even see an election. I think the outbursts on campus are just testing the waters.

Time is drawing near unfortunately and I think we have a really, really, rough road ahead of us. I am not looking forward to it.

I don't.
The guy is a "one-election wonder" in national politics.
He can't run for governor again (the Virginia one-term law for governors has to be one of the stupidest anywhere), and his only option might be to try for Senator.

If he can't win that, he's done.

There are people saying the Dems won't leave the White House, which has never happened in out history.  The election is really only Round One.

I would prefer a Governor take the slot, but I won't bet on it.  Needs to be somebody prepared to run in '28.

Fred, you're not going to like this post.
I can confidently predict that NO "conservative" will ever win an election for the presidency again...

... so long as the DisUnited States remains a 50-state union.
Not gonna happen. There is never going to be "unity" again (unless it's a forced "unity" from the DCommunists).

Now if there was, say, a "Heartland Republic" that broke away from the leftist blue states, that might very well become possible, perhaps likely.

But as the country exists NOW?
No way.

The odds of your Heartland Republic fantasy ever happening is even less.

We have hit a crossroads where we just may see blue states v red states.  Just my opinion.

[collins]

Red would win, they are armed and angry and the population isn't concentrated in one big city.

...hmm.... I don't see the DEMS losing and I think that they will make some sore of power play at the convention.  They're not going to give up power.

Yes, I have heard the theory that the left is going to provoke and provoke in order to suspend the elections this fall. I think it's a little "out there" but then they have shown to do things I thought they never would. They are fanatics, and dangerous.

Whether or not the election is suspended or done away with completely is a toss up; but the left IS going to do whatever they can to ensure that Trump is not seated.

Pandemic, riots, attacks from within ... who knows what they have in store for us. 

Keep praying for a miracle.

Is Winsome Sears on Trump's Short List for a Running Mate?

She's a rising star in Republican politics. Like Trump, she is known for delivering unfiltered opinions on controversial topics. At a time when college campuses are being disrupted by pro-Hamas demonstrations, the Trump campaign may be thinking about a strong show of support for law and order to contrast with Biden's cowardice in addressing the problem.

And, she is a black woman. Sears would provide a sharp contrast to Kamala Harris on a debate stage.

Good thinking! She would make an excellent VP!

[Smokin Joe]

There is no victory in November.

Yep.

That about sums it up.

It's only a question of what flavor of sh*t will be in the sandwiches.
