I’d like Vivek, but Vivek did declare that he did not want to be VP. Of course he might change his mind.

Let's retouch this question when we see who he surrounds himself with if he can find a way to win.


Only the best people. That’s why he fired Bannon and let Kushner call the shots.

If it's Burgum, then Trump loses. I just don't get it. The last election proved that there are plenty of ignorant people in this world. There are still a lot of undecided voters and Burgum isn't going to move them to Trump.

If he picks Tulsi, I would put his chances at winning, against anyone, in the 90 percentile.

It should 100% be Vivek, but who knows if he's willing to accept the nomination. Maybe Vivek wants to sit this one out and wait for things to settle in the political climate (wishful thinking, I know).

Posobiec and Kirk are fake conservatives and grifters, but they’re correct to not like Burgum.

Absolutely. But keep in mind that Trump believes that Bruce Jenner is a stunning and brave woman and is fine with biological men using women’s restrooms. He also celebrated the endorsement of a BLM terrorist group. It would make sense why he likes Burgum.

"Who should he pick for VP?"

"What about Lyndon?"

"You kidding? Lyndon backs war in Viet Nam to the max"

"So do we, which is why Lyndon is the choice"

"and when he rejects Lyndon's advice to escalate the war?"

"got that covered too"

No. They’re fine with running up the debt and those who believe Bruce is somehow a woman and using women’s restrooms. There are only 2 genders. Bruce is a biological man who is mentally-ill. He’s also a murderer and a disgusting person. This isn’t hard.

Yawn... I am sure bringing North Dakota to the table will have big benefits... Not a big splash and most don't even know him...

Supports Ukraine funding and a whole host of other GOPe initiatives...

I wouldn’t be calling anyone a fake conservative if I were you. You refused to say Newsom did worse on COVID than DeSantis, you defended Newsom when they debated, and you believe that Bruce Jenner is a woman. Heck, you sided with Ric Grenell during “pride” month in calling those who didn’t worship that filth “homophobic.”

Do us all a favor and go back to California

Love the guy but absolutely wrong choice

This decision should be mostly about who will win in 2028 and Burgum just isn’t that guy.

Gotta play the long game here.

Vivek is smart, but Vivek is also someone who, publicly has stated that he is against generational wealth and would push for death/estate taxes at around 65% and fold that wealth back in to the government to support spending on social programs. Vivek also became a multimillionaire by buying rights to failed drugs, rebranding them and getting investors to buy in then selling off his stock before the FDA declared the new Vivek medical trials had failed. Lots of people lost money due to Vivek's inherent snake-oil salesmanship.

The guy talks a good game, but he's not what he portrays himself to be. Kinda like Candice Owens. Just another grifter.

I'm leaning towards Trump picking Tim Scott. This is a very loyal supporter of DJT and has a reputation of being very nice. Being a current Senator, his knowledge of this body will be useful. He's also no threat to overshadowing Trump. DJT doesn't like sharing the spotlight and Tim Scott fills this square nicely.

I personally like governors because they have executive experience but Scott will probably help more in votes.
