I am thinking outside the box here, and this could be a good move. I'm not sure how I think about this fully yet, but the idea is interesting.

I like Pence, but he's not the fighter that Trump is. What we have learned is that having a fighter as our POTUS yields great results, and it doesn't allow the left to be the demagogues that they are. They try, and Trump knocks them down every time.

You know who else has learned this? Graham. He has adopted Trump's fighting persona, and he has opened up on the political world. It begs the question how much of this is authentic or calculated. I do think there is some authenticity to it. I think Graham has always played the way he's thought it supposed to be played, and this is what he feared of Trump during the election. Now that he's seen the success of it, he is "woke" and has allowed his fighting nature to shine.

Anyway it's just some outside thinking. I still hope for Cruz in 2024, but I don't think I would be upset if it were Graham at this point. He has won me over, and making him VP would be a big step to this.

Why on Earth do yall consistently want to take people who are in office and voting FOR conservative policies , for the most part, and move them to another position?

There are 340M fricking people in this country, surely we can come up with a good person to fill a position without moving someone from a different position every time?

I'd vote for Ed Orgeron running as the Green Party candidate over Graham.

Yeah this is my concern with him. This could all be calculated.

Trump is so unique that I fear replacing him will be difficult. It's highly likely we will be stuck with another system player, which Graham usually is; however, I feel if we do at least we roll with one that has shown he's willing to fight and not back down (hello Romney, Bush, McCain and the like)

Too far out if you ask me.

Lindsey Graham is fine where he is right now as the Senior Senator from South Carolina.

I want no part of him in the executive branch.

He's not to be trusted.

Mike Pence is a good balancing force for POTUS, and he works behind the scenes to accomplish the administration's goals. It wouldn't be a good scene with two larger-than-life personalities vying for attention and the spotlight.

I'm just fine with Pence being where he is, and Graham continuing in his current position.

So why do you want to take the risk of going with the guy who was a part of the gang of 8 bill?

He still wants amnesty for illegal aliens and wants more war in the mideast.

He's just a woke Bush era neocon that wants the left to stop pissing in his cheerios.

Good point. I think this would be a killer move.



While another poster is correct in pointing out the VP is a ceremonial position, he fails to recognize that it's also a position that sets up nicely for the next election. I don't think Pence is enough of a fighter to be POTUS, so I am thinking he needs to be removed from the position in 2020 campaign.

Haley is a legit politician. Her handling of the confederate flag issue gives me pause for concern though. She caved on that
