Exactly. He's Trump circa 2016 and so is impossible for the left to label.
Remember traitors like Chaim "Bill" Kristol and "Jonah" Goldberg objecting to Trump in 2016 because he "was a liberal"?

Trump and Elon both recently donated to Dems. Things change quickly.

I don't give a shite how easy Trump or Vivek can be labeled. Tell me how a couple of Clinton Democrats that have never gotten anything passed by congress that wasn't shite tons of spending are going to get the wall completed, DOJ fixed, the pentagon right-sized and the budget on a better path.

Stop hiring establishment Republicans to fill his cabinet?

And then Trump went on to be basically a Pre-Obama era Democrat.
So...

What makes you think that's the plan? And what makes you think Trump isn't "establishment"?
You're too impressed with words and not nearly impressed enough by actions.

Selecting an outspoken, avowed socialist would not be a good look.
A modestly attractive face and a killer body aren't enough for principled conservatives to overlook her Marxists ideologies. The only thing that differentiates her from the rest of the modern dim field is her disdain towards endless wars and the MIC.

Vance would be interesting. Noem seems like a pure passenger.
Of the "I somewhat don't trust them considering their recent huge flip flops and/or lack of conservative values" I'd put my preference as Vance, Vivek, Tulsi in that order.
Kari Lake would be on that list but I assume she's not actually in the mix.
Vance strikes me as a very smart GOPe at heart guy who is an opportunist. Surprised he'd be near the top of your list TBH

Don't pull anybody out of the Senate or Congress like a Rand Paul. They are much more valuable to the Congress than a VP.

Rand Paul would be a homerun.
South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem is not a bad choice.
No one adds votes. The priority should be who could best replace Trump with an America First agenda.

I think someone like Noem is vanilla as it gets but probably perfect for VP.
Rand is completely wasted as VP unless Trump let's him do a ton of messaging
Vivek would be interesting because I don't trust him but I'm curious to see him over time and in action. Although I think we'd get a much better opportunity to see what Vivek's all about if he had to go build his conservative bonafides in a less ceremonial role over the next 4 years.

Trump is 77 years old.
Trump has many enemies domestically and foreign.
No.
Rand Paul is the perfect pick for VP.

Rand as an insurance policy is fine by me. But I think you live in a fantasy world if you think Rand Paul is going to be given complete license to be Rand Paul as Trump's second.
I cannot foresee a scenario other than Trump's death where we get much value out of him as VP.

So he’s asking those who are already supporting him who they want as VP? Perhaps that’s what’s wrong with his campaign style — no outreach to independents.

Your analogy of an insurance policy is perfect. The premium would be sky high.
Posted on 3/11/24 at 3:49 pm to ItzMe1972
My guess is it will be Kristi Noem. It needs to be a woman, it needs to be a woman that MAGA voters won't hate but also the GOPe won't hate. She is attractive, smart, could definitely woo the white suburban women vote better than many of his other possible choices.
I'd love to see it be Rand Paul but he's needed in the senate. I'd love to see it be Ric Grenell....a FIRST openly gay VP would pull in some votes perhaps
I pray he is listening to his supporters and not Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell or God help us we could end up with someone like Katie Britt
