Yeah I was thinking Tim Scott would be good to try to get more black votes but he may be too awkward of a guy.


Rumors out there that he doesn’t like the fairer persuasion all that much. Who knows if it is true. A lot of people have joked about how his engagement is a beard situation.

Trump won the 2016 election in the rust belt and lost the 2020 election largely in the rust belt. This pick is not very complicated strategically speaking.

So much for Trump picking better options this time around. Ugh. Youngkin and Scott were much better options that widened the map and didn't put a Senate seat at risk.


Trump picked someone who is associated with the Rust Belt and its 4-5 swing states. Also, Ohio is a bellweather state.

You are so monumentally bad at this.
On the plus side, TFG can recycle the old signage and save money for his attorneys

I think this is a bigger issue in 4 years.


What? That's precisely why the VP pick this year is hugely important...

Just being from Ohio doesn’t mean shite - Vance arguably hurts in the Midwest more than he helps based on election results.

Yeah, that’s what I said. Not a huge deal now but Vance doesn’t bode well for 2028.

Seems like some "lower-income, lower-education white people" out here might take offense too

an assassination attempt less than 48 hours ago and you're bemoaning a running mate choice that doesn't move the needle no matter who he picked.

Vance has half the wits and fight that Vivek does, poor low energy choice. This looks like a bad start to the presidency.

If Van Jones says he he “terrified” of pick, then it was the right one.

Which might’ve been the point.

But is there anyone the left wouldn’t be “terrified” of on the right at this point?

They would've been #SoBrave-ing themselves to death over a Nikki Haley choice.

Kamla Harris called Biden a racist and said she believed his sexual assault accuser.


I also like how it throws a wrench in people like fun bunch's accusations that you have to always kiss the ring.

till can't get over the fact that Trump has picked a neverTrump guy as his running mate. All of these posts and videos of JD Vance criticizing are out in the open, it's not like any of this was a secret. Might as well have chosen HHtM as his running mate.


it's politics - People change their mind daily on half the shyt they pretend to support. Doesn't move the needle for me. He has a high conservative score and been on brand with Trump for a good while. Who gives a shyt about a text from eons ago.

Vance's wife is Indian, which means it would be the first time in US history a VP's spouse is a POC.
