I admit that I haven't a clue who the convicted felon will tap to be on the ticket with him

[Siwsan]

If it is a female, maybe Nikki Haley?

[FBaggins]

1. He supposedly said that his choice would be at the debate

Of course... that doesn't narrow the list down very much.

[Polybius]

17. I heard him say the convention

So sometime during Monday, July 15, - Thursday, Jul 18.

[FBaggins]

18. That wouldn't be news

The VP has to be selected by then in order to be nominated

[Iggo]

22. He also lies every time he speaks.

[yourout]

2. Haley is the one that scares me but the one I am most sure he won't pick.

A woman with power scares the crap out of that misogynists piece of crap

[Duncanpup]

6. Definitely

[Torchlight]

3. I dunno, but I think he'll drag it out as long as he can manage

It's his last opportunity to receive positive press before the election, and I think he'll try to wring out as much capital from that as possible for as long as possible. The actual choice will be almost a non-issue compared to the media saturation about trump making the choice as he runs up to it.

[orange jar]

4. My prediction:

It'll be either Tulsi Gabbard, Byron Donalds, or Vivek Ramaswamy. No evidence to back this up; just a gut feeling.

[eppur_se_muova]

5. I think it would be a very, VERY good idea -- the best ever! -- if he refused to name a VP until AFTER the election !

I just hope no one leaks the idea to him -- that would be a disaster !

[anciano]

7. My first thought was either

JD Vance or Doug Burgum, but it will probably be whoever his big money donors tell him to pick.

[emulatorloo]

8. Maybe he'll announce it in court on July 11th when he gets sentenced.

[multigraincracker]

9. One off his kids.

They are all related to a MIT professor

[Tarzanrock]

10. It will be some Fascist asshole.

If he picks Rubio -- you know that Republican internal polling shows that Florida is in play. He may take some Nazi asshole out of Pennsylvania because he thinks that Pennsylvania may be in play. I rather doubt that he even gives a shit who the VP is as long as it is someone who is a total sycophant to him. My guess today is that he probably selects the Vance asshole out of Ohio because he has to lock-up Ohio or else he takes some obnoxious white Bible Thumper from North Carolina or Oklahoma or Texas or Missouri to appease the Christo-Fascists in the Republican Nazi Party.

[Dulcinea]

12. Mastriano?

He's a "Nazi asshole out of Pennsylvania." But Vance is a possibility. I doubt he'll pick a woman, but not Nikki Haley because she's smarter than he is & might upstage him.

[Siwsan]

13. I kind of wouldn't put it past him to pick someone who has never been in any legislative position

Like a big donor/billionaire buddy.

[Tarzanrock]

14. Harlan Crow ...

comes to mind for some reason.

[Tarzanrock]

11. Magdalena Goebbels unfortunately is not available.

It's sad that Magdalena Goebbels is no longer available. She squarely checks all the requisite Republican Nazi hate boxes and has that unrequited "loyalty" which the Turd desires.

[Demsrule86]

15. The Governor of Virginia is said to be one likely VP Youngkin...the guy who lost the entire legislature

earlier this year.

[struggle4progress]

16. Who will get most excited by the thought of a crowd baying for his/her hanging?

[ShazzieB]

19. Last I heard, i was down to J.D. Vance and Doug Burgum.

Earlier, it was supposedly between those 2 and Rubio, but Rubio's "enthusiasm" was said to be "in question." If that means Marco came to his senses and realized what a huge mistake it would be to join the Trump ticket, all I can say is good for him!

If it is between Vance and Burgum, I'd pick Burgum. I don't know much about him, but Vance strikes me as a guy who has a lot of opinions and might not be meek enough for TSF'S TASTE. Also, he's famous in his own right and might steal some of the spotlight.

Burgum is kind of a nobody from a nowhere state, like Pence and seems a lot less likely to be in danger of upstaging TSF. But who knows.

[valleyrogue]

21. J.D. Vance

He is insane enough to appeal to Trump's dwindling base. Before Dogmurdergate, I would have picked Noem.

[TheKentuckian]

23. Some fascist ass sniffer. It all spends the same.
