ITT: We predict Trump's VP pick
I'm thinking Jeff Sessions
>drafted Trump's immigration plan
>first Senator to endorse Trump
>top Republican on Senate Judiciary Committee and opposed Obama's supreme court pick
>pro-life, harsh on immigration, could gain support from some ex-Cruzmissiles and secure southern religious right voters
>chairman of Trump's national security advisory commission
>level-headed, hard-working (http://www.newsmax.com/TheWire/hard-working-senators-capitol-hill-america/2016/03/30/id/721488/)
Only things that could deter him from being VP are if Trump decides to pick a woman or if he intends to have Sessions be Secretary of State or Secretary of Homeland Security. Jim Webb doesn't stand a chance because his position as a Democrat will make him an easy target.
Also, a lowkey populist

>>72976115
I don't think a southerner would be the pick. That's traditional politics.
>>72976115
Jeff Sessions is also
>old as fuck
If Trump were smart he'd pick someone who could carry on his legacy. Being a VP of a successful president gives you a tremendous advantage in any subsequent presidential race.
If we're lucky we might get 16 years straight of Trump + proto-Trump. And maybe even more after that
>>72976753
I wouldn't mind this. Still think Cruzmissiles will tear the idea of a cross-party ticket and many tea party faggots will not go out and vote.
>>72976115
>>72976753
I'm literally okay with this.
>>72976753
Its going to happen, I can feel it
>>72977195
i wish. but trump won't do it. at this point he's going to become more orthodox and the party would explode if he tried to make a democrat his VP pick.
if they drug it out to the convention and tried to screw him and he barely squeaked out the nomination while having to fight the party for it, this would have been a possibility. but since they played nice so will he.
>>72976115
He said that the recent predictions online has all been false... so yeah, I don't think we can bro.
>>72977379
Exactly. Appointing Webb as VP could actually make Trump lose supporters.
>>72976753
I really hope this happens.
>>72977442
>recent predictions online
?
>>72977591
Trump said earlier today that he was definitely going to nominate a republican.
>>72977736
Yes, he has no choice but to nominate a republican, since he is running as a republican.
>>72977736
I can't imagine who would be a solid republican pick, unfortunately. Many pubsters have burned bridges and the ones who have come out in support of Trump don't really seem like they'd be good veeps.
>>72976115
The choice that's sure to make liberal's heads explode?
Colonel Allen West.
>>72977379
He's got it in the bag he doesn't have to play to the right anymore. His support is solid and they have nowhere else to go, most people would recognize the winning strategy of uniting the country.
>>72976753
would be amazing

>For that, he could consider someone right from the inside, like Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., who has been a Trump supporter and whom Trump name-checked during his Indiana victory speech Tuesday night.
booyah
>Or, another name that is regularly floated is that of former House speaker and former presidential candidate Newt Gingrich, who represented Georgia.
Moonbase is a grumpy old fuck and I doubt he will get the pick.
>>72976115
Webb is - objectively - one of the strongest possible choices for a running mate.
1) His decades in the military and in Congress brings decades of leadership and political experience to the ticket.
2) His service as ASOD and SECNAV in the Reagan Administration brings credibility to Trump's foreign policy and national security platform.
3) His military service and work with the VA all-but-guarantees Trump wins support from veterans, active duties, and their families.
4) His appeal to working class whites could help Trump flip Democratic strongholds in the Rust Belt and the East Coast
5) He doesn't bring any kind of political baggage to the ticket. He's had no major scandals in his career and as a *literal* war hero his character is beyond reproach.
6) Running the first cross-party candidate since Lincoln/Johnson 150 years ago sends a strong message that Trump is a different kind of president, someone above bipartisanship, someone who doesn't give a shit about party lines, but instead cares about picking the best people for the job. Which will be all the more relevant to framing the narrative of the campaign when Clinton either picks a token woman or minority like Warren or Castro, or some embedded establishment guy like Kaine or Warner.

This guy
>>72978119
From a moral standpoint what else could he do?
His enemies accuse him of being a liberal
Can you imagine him nominating a democrat?
>>72977908
>Jim Webb rejoins GOP
problem solved
>>72978328
>implying not secretary of defense
>>72976115
Its gonna be Carson
Hillary would make nice VEEP.
>>72978299
Yeah but where does that get his enemies?
What the fuck is Clinton going to do? Go out on stage and say "Look you guys! He really was a completely pragmatic centrist the whole time! You can't vote for him, he's too much like me!"?
>>72978418
Mattis is Secretary of Defense
>>72978328
The guy already announced that he's retiring from the Senate. Hard for me to imagine him switching right now and being up to running as veep.
Newt.
Moonman for Trump. Can't beat that.
>>72976753
>a democrat
So all some spic gang has to do is shoot Trump and they have a Dem president again.
>>72977379
Webb was also a republican prior to 2006
>>72976115
>>72977087
Trump/Trump Jr.
>>72978532
Newt's moral background would not allow it. There's a reason he did so poorly in 2012.
YOU CANT STUMP THE TRUMP BECAUSE YOU ARE FEELING THE BERN?
Newt.
>>72978419
pls make it so
>>72978588
Not to mention *literally* a member of the Reagan Administration.
In the words of Tucker Carlson - "What are you doing running as a Democrat?"
>daily reminder that if the election were today Clinton would get upwards of 320 electoral votes
>daily reminder that trump is going t become more unlikable over time
>daily reminder there is literally nothing new to dig up on Clinton and everyone with a >100 IQ doesn't give a shit about the "scandals" right wing MSM has tried so desperately to push
>>72978419
please god no
>>72978048
He has to appeal to the right more than ever, now. He was already accused of being a democrat agent, thats exactly what his naysayers would want.
At that point, it's not like the republicans would go vote for Hillary; they'd just stay home.
>>72977596
Took a while to find it again, but here you go. Start watching at 16:08 (he says it around 16:21)

Hes hardly really a Democrat, the man was a Republican till his son got killed in Iraq in 2006 iirc. His policies are far more conservative tbqh.
Trump/Webb
Fucking win
>>72977966
follow him on facebook. he is worse than a jew with click baiting, i dont trust him. he is a sensationalist.
>>72978705
This isn't 2012. Morality is not a prerequisite this election.

Shit, sounds like he's pushing military

>>daily reminder that trump is going t become more unlikable over time
I disagree, but this is a matter of opinion.
>>daily reminder there is literally nothing new to dig up on Clinton
You're shitposting right?
jef sessions will bring absolutely nothing to trump. he needs to win the swing states, he needs independents, he needs more white democrat votes. he needs a person who will contrast his outspoken mentality.
TL;DR - he needs webb
>>72979443
What is there that could possibly be brought up?
They just recycle the same old tired shit
>hurrrr she volunteered to defend an accused rapist and laughed about it later!
>she gave a stand down order!
>she broke the law with her server!
Top fucking kek sheep
>>72979178
He got gerrymandered and it literally drove him crazy. Remember the good times:
https://youtu.be/RQtUzxxvsjw
>>72978869
Daily reminder that the election is not today so how many votes someone would get if the election were held today isn't relevant.
Webb would be best. Newt would be a good more realistic choice
>>72979217
Something huge for sure, the way he says it:
>"It's too soon to reveal it"
>"A lot of people are talking about different names and those are CERTAINLY(?!) not the names we are thinking off".
Pretty weird. He might go extremely yuuuge and choose someone that has been in the military, like you said.
>>72978919
Why not?
Bag a decent part of the minority's.
His zen calm will balance out Trumps high energy.
Plus nobody is gonna shoot Trump, because then that wackjob would be POTUS
>>72979602
>daily reminder that polls that are this pro democrat this early only get better the more people register

Sessions already confirmed he won't take VP he's getting something to do with border defence.
I'm hoping Christie personally, or Carson.

Anyone who was not a child or a twinkle in their daddy's eye in the 90s knows Newt is literally the shittiest fucking choice of all time. I'd rather he chose fucking Palin than Newt.
>>72979722
Republican turnout has been up in almost every contest this season while Democratic turnout has been down in almost every contest.
>>72979774
All of those are a guaranteed loss. Hahaha
>>72979854
Democrats don't vote in primaries and midterms. You'd know this if this wasn't your first election.
>>72978995
Well, I'm on the fence.
>>72976115
Trump said it himself that he wants someone to balance out his business know how with more political know how so anyone suggesting another business like person needs to stop.
Think of people already deep in the web of political experience. People that are outsiders, but also have great knowledge of the system.
Those are your VP's. No way is he going to sully his campaign with someone known as an "insider" like Rice.
gov Sarah Palin who else.
Mattis for Veep
Krispy for AG
Allen West for SecDef
Ben Carson for HHS
Ted Cruz for Supreme Court
David Clarke for Homeland Security

no way bern would accept

Carter was beating the shit out of Reagan in May. Carter lost in November. As they say about sports predictions gone wrong "There's a reason why they actually play the games."
>>72980034
On the contrary. Anyone who actually has been watching knows it's basically over already for trump
Hannity just reported Carson is helping Trump pick his VP.
My own take is that this means Carson will be in his cabinet and not VP.
>>72979808
I can't stop laughing
>>72976115
Marco Rubio would be a smart move.
>>72979818
Using a private server to store files containing sensitive government information is a crime. A serious crime at that.

I know you mongoloids wants Bernie to be picked by Trump as his VP. But that won't happen.

You're squandering hillary's propaganda budget. Try harder.
It won't be Sessions. The Don is going to pick someone far more strategic than that.
He needs to secure swing states, so he'll go after moderates in contested areas like Ohio or Florida. This is why people keep touting Rubio as a compromise with the establishment, but Rubio is unpopular in Florida. My guess is it'll be a literal who woman from Ohio, Florida, or Pennsylvania.
>>72978526
He's been out of the Senate for 3 years m8, he's free to do what he wants. He would have ran as an independent if he thought he had any chance of winning and the funds to do so. It wouldn't be a stretch for him to abandon the increasingly progressive/marxist Democrats that call him a racist for the new America First GOP.
TRUMP / RAND

>standard political thinking
no
>>72976115
Trump ''knows'', he's not picking anyone who isn't 100% dedicated to the eradication of the globalist system. It's more likely he'll pick fucking Alex Jones (I'd love that kek but not the electorate) than anyone that has been involved in the presidential election so far.
Maybe he'll pick someone /pol/ doesn't recognize as ''pro-white anti-globalist'' , maybe he has slapped some sense into a naive but otherwise good-hearted person and told them what's at stake, and given instructions for how to act in case he dies.
I don't know. But in short: In the absence of any shenanigans, Trump isn't picking anyone who isn't 100% dedicated to dismantling the globalist system.

>>72982255
>implying Kasich didn't drop out because he saw he had no chance
He has 0 reason to pick that Soros puppet. Do you guys forget how smart Trump is? He isn't going to have a VP the establishment wouldn't mind seeing as president if "something happened" to Donald.
>>72976115
Trump is egocentric. He needs somebody that will be a yes-man who has no will and will only help him advance further. He won't take anybody from the Republican establishment.
He's gonna pick sleepy black man
>>72978869
Trump doesn't need new stuff, he just needs to get people thinking of all the shit she has done. The people forget about it because of the media, but Trump knows how to work the media. He can point out all the flip flopping and shady shit and get it stuck in people's heads.
People have been saying this the whole campaign about every candidate that's challenged him. And they all utterly failed. Trump hasn't even started his attack on Clinton, just you wait and see.
It will be Jeff sessions, believe me
Hold up guys, I think i found our VP
Ron DeSantis
>>72982710
I guarantee he's already promised surgeon general to Carson if Carson helps with his campaign. That is Ben's dream job.

Maybe, it just seems pretty coincidental that 20 minutes after Trump said that news dropping of Kasich's campaign suspension. I personally would absolutely love a Trump/Rand Paul ticket. And while we're at it, nominate Ron Paul for SCOTUS.

Without the Tea Party, we wouldn't be were we're at today, you dip. Without them, Jeb Bush would be our nominee and the Neocons would still be in charge.

Why not Paul Ryan?
>>72978231
Its a really stupid idea. You are way, way overestimating the willingness of some traditional GOP voters to support Trump as is. He's been a Democrat for as long as he's been a Republican. If he, as a 70 year old man who says he sleeps 4 hours a night, put a Democrat one heartbeat away from the Presidency the talk of him "destroying the Republican party" would no longer be a little gag. Jim Webb had NO support before dropping out, he was polling at about 1% among Dems and independents. It would keep far more conservative-leaning people home that it would win over in Webb Democrats.
Jim Webb is a fun, and laughably ignorant, idea.

Capped. I'll add it to the collection of "it'll never be Webb" posts.
Some qt3.14 on the Clinton News Network actually made a pretty compelling, nonbiased, case for Mike Rowe a couple of days ago.

He's a good choice. Very down to earth, likable, excellent speaking skills and voice.
