You can count on Trump picking someone who is diametrically opposed to his alleged populist beliefs.
Whatever those beliefs are at this very moment.
Another Pence?
Tuppence?
An easy way to narrow this list down to what's actually possible is to remove everyone who has ever said anything bad about Trump.
I disagree.
Trump is a feckless narcissist who seems to value present sycophancy over prior disparagement, especially when doing so can be exploited to present himself in a flattering light - such as by presenting himself as a magnanimous "uniter" who doesn't hold grudges. He certainly doesn't have any principles upon which to base such decisions, so all bets are off, and anyone who bends the knee and kisses his ass enough (whether in good faith or not) is in the running.

I actually like him. Maybe I missed something, but he seemed to have decent principles and wasn’t sold out.
