My money is on Kemp... maybe Youngkin.

I still think it's going to be Noem. Trump has to do something about his terrible covid record and try and do something to get women. I hate it because she's had some pretty terrible policies outside of her covid record.

 

[susano]

Vivek would have been an insurance policy against assassination.

 

[oyarde]

vivek wont accept, wouldnt want tainted

Make him something FFS, press secretary.

He would wipe the floor with the media.

And he is aware of principles of liberty.

Unlike the army of Dems and RINOs that Trump is currently surrounded with.

Kemp? Georgia's Kemp. That would be rather surprising.

Kemp basically played hear-no-evil-see-no-evil during the 2020 steal.

Trump kinda pissed Kemp off as well when he basically mocked the governor for being among the first to reopen during COVID.

“I told the governor of Georgia, Brian Kemp, that I disagree strongly with his decision to open certain facilities which are in violation of the phase one guidelines for the incredible people of Georgia. They’re incredible people. I love those people. They are – they’re great. They’ve been strong, resolute.

But, at the same time, he must do what he thinks is right. I want him to do what he thinks is right, but I disagree with him on what he’s doing. But I want to let the governors do – now, if I see something totally egregious, totally out of line, I’ll do. But I think spas and beauty salons and tattoo parlors and barbershops in phase one – we’re going to have phase two very soon – is just too soon. I think it’s too soon.

“And I love the people. I love – I love those people that use all of those things: the spas and the beauty parlors and barbershops, tattoo parlors. I love them. But they can wait a little bit longer. Just a little bit. Not – not much. Because safety has to predominate. We have to have that. So I told the governor, very simply, that I disagree with his decision, but he has to do what he thinks is right.” --DJT

Never once thought he had a chance of being VP.

Why would he pick Kemp, isn't he a traitor? Though I suppose there's really nothing left except traitors.

 

[TheTexan]

I wonder if Trump can be his own VP

If Kemp can deliver Georgia, then it would be worth it potentially.

The article said they are considering him for Secretary of Homeland Security.

 

[acptulsa]

The article said they are considering him for Secretary of Homeland Security.

If he were half the libertarian he claims to be, he'd close it down.

Vivek Ramaswamy On The Record

 

[dannno]

If he were half the libertarian he claims to be, he'd close it down.

You sound like a woman. Nothing is ever good enough.

Ramaswamy pledged to shut down the FBI, IRS, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and Department of Education.

That isn't good enough for you, to have somebody in power who wants to shut down all these agencies, in this day and age. You need somebody in power who wants to shut down everything, even though probably 99% of the population disagrees with you.

Thus, an impossible task. You fight anybody moving in that direction, furthering the impossibility of ever having a truly small, Constitutional government.

- Vivek wants to shut down the FBI (<--I am all for it, but not for this-->) and replace it with a "Police Apparatus", so that said Police Apparatus can actually do the job of Background Checks. He also wants to transfer 15,000 FBI Agents to the DEA.

The trait of nothing ever being good enough or being an ideological purist isn't peculiar to either sex. Just sayin.

It's a conundrum. Is the perfect the enemy of the good?

Conundrum? My resolve concerning standing on principles: Did I fall for a lesser of evil? How is my conscience? How well do I sleep at night? I sleep like a baby ;-)
