U.S. Politics

Haha Reminds me of this:

now that's the way to sort it out

VP ...... gotta be Oprah Winfrey !!!!!

I think you may be on to something there. Trump knows there's a lot of people that will vote based on a face they recognize.

Jimmy Kimmel jokes about Trumps "I love the poorly educated" comment in his Nevada victory speech. -

Maybe Condoleeza Rice??
That would tick a lot of boxes...

...or Colin Powell... but both have emphatically said they are done with politics, especially Powell who feels Bush more or less betrayed him.

Latest names I've heard bantered about are his latest backer, Chris Christie as AG, and Giuliani as Homeland Security chief.

VP candidates could be Scott Walker or Rick Santorum. He needs an "insider" to ramrod his ideas through the system. He's built a huge empire by surrounding himself with very competent people. It will be an interesting process to watch.

[Jsell50]

I like Santoram better but Walker would draw a few more votes. Both are more in the "Think like Trump camp" and that may go against them in the general election.

Trumps VP? Wanna really shake up the status-quo? How bout former Navy Seal/Pro Wrestler/Governor
Jesse Ventura.

Yes. If he's picking competent people, that would seem to rule out Palin as his Secretary of State despite her familiarity with Russia from being able to see it from her home.

[Jsell50]

I do think Palin is a good "Frontier" woman. I like lots of her views but I don't think she was, or is, good candidate material.

A novel idea, and I actually kinda like it, but I'm sure the general public would not. He does need a pit bull at his side though.

I'd be more inclined to think he'd have a poodle (Vice President) by his side. Miniature at that. But who knows: In researching chihuahuas and pitbulls, I found this quote:
"“Any serious person in Washington could never work for [Trump], because it would just destroy your career and you’ll never be respected by anyone around here.”

I guess a lot of people will be changing their tune if/when he wins the nomination. Politicians, and those who work in DC have very short memories.

[glalt]

Trump and Paul Ryan would be the perfect ticket.

Trump and Paul Ryan would be the perfect ticket.

I didn't know too much about him, but after much reading, I agree. I am not too sure he would go for it but it would be a powerful alliance.

Excellent link. As the campaign has progressed I find myself more and more tolerant of Drumpf, his ancestral name according to the link. The link calling him just a "------ lifestyle brand" among other things just encourages that tolerance.

The modern world is crazy. I can now see him beating Clinton. I'm not forecasting that he will, but I think it's a realistic possibility. President Drumpf. He needs some mongrel in a VP. I suggest Mike Tyson.

Comedians are best at what they are paid for, not to be taken seriously...
But super Tuesday is coming. I think "Drumpf" will have the last laugh.

Trump 25 years ago.

Why?
I am interested to know what you thought he said that was incorrect?
Do you think Drumpf will sue him? Or, at least, threaten to do so...

I love it. He was saying most of the same things he is saying today. And yes, he has made some mistakes along the way. But look at our own lives. How many of us would be happy to tell everyone all we have done in our past?
