That’s probably the one directly under maximum. True maximum melt would be throwing them a screwball and naming himself as his running mate. That’s if the Democrats don’t do it first. Not to throw everyone a knuckleball of their own, but rather purely accidental. Dumb luck it would be. It’s actually possible.

I don't think he should pick a VP to get votes, he should just find someone that isn't a negative.

I have no idea who. Certainly not someone like Lake.

Hands down out of that group it’s (f) . Carson is boring but he more real then 99.99% of politicians compared to his opponent who would be completely fake. Most of those candidates are to much like Trump . Kennedy would be a better choice then most of the people on that list . I think good outsider choices would be Dave Ramsey and Joel Salatin . Joel Salatin would keep climate change from being on the VP debate . He destroy Harris and almost democrat politicians on climate change . We need to get people with a logical green back ground on some of these tickets .

Why?

That is the VP's only function, beyond generally being alive.

I don't see anyone that would want the job that would get him votes.

MAYBE Nikki Haley to help in the Carolinas? I don't see a lot of options in that regard.

Then that needs to say “could” instead of “should”. Doesn’t even matter anyway. It’s just not accurate.

When it comes to debate skills and presence, I would have to go with A) Byron Donald’s.

Trustworthiness would have to go to B) Flynn. He’s the only one on the list that I can say is 100% trustworthy. Everyone else can be compromised, except for maybe Bannon.

Toughest would have to go to C) Kari Lake.

Very hard decision. I wouldn’t want to risk someone who isn’t trustworthy after that seeing what happened with Mike Pence. That would be my number 1 quality in a running mate. That eliminates a lot of people though.

Byron Donalds constitutionally cannot be VP unless he resigns from congress and moves residences, or Trump moves Residences out of Florida as his main residence.

Kari Lake was entertaining to watch but she lost her last election.

He should pick someone that has either won elections or is a non politician like Vivek

Although I like Gaetz, Bannon and MTG I don't they would be a good candidate. Donalds would be my first choice, and any of the others a very close second.

She isn't Governor of Arizona, so, she lost.

Just like Trump isn't President, so, he lost.

Find ways to win. The Dems do which is why the have been kicking our arse for a long time

Hardly anyone is going to want to run with Trump besides his fellow election losers like Lake. That’s who I think he picks. He knows he needs help with women and he will think she will actually move the needle (she won’t).

His best options would be Scott or Noem. They won’t touch it.

Iowa Governor would be a great pick. She would lock in suburban women vote which he lost the last election.

Desantis doesn't want that job just like anyone in his position wouldn't.

The only ones that will are people at the end of their political careers or ones just beginning them.

The VP has been a deadend job too often.
