We know that once the media frenzy of should Biden step down subsides, the conversation will switch to Vice Presidents, and who can take over if the worse happens.
Right now the world has forgotten that Trump is almost as old as Biden, but once he names his VP we can change the narrative.
Who would you most like, and who scares you the most?
For me, the least scary would be that North Dakota Governor. Hes just an unknown white guy, that also looks older than he really is.
The scariest would be Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
I know we loved to tease her when she was press secretary, but since she has been Governor she seems to have a following.
She also has a breadth of knowledge because of her time as Press Secretary. She had to be on her feet for every question. Although she mimicked every word her boss said, she still needed to know the basics.
So who is your pick?

(114,167 posts)A psychopath that knows far too much militarily--including psyops techniques-- not to be dangerous as hell. Merely look at his embrace of Q-anon for his own purposes to show that.

(17,802 posts)Knowing wtf you are doing. That is the scary part about him.
Last term it was the gang that couldn't shoot straight. But with Flynn in Cheney's seat, shit would get real.
Hopefully he has aged out.

(1,459 posts)I was thinking more on the who would get more public support, and possibly cost Biden the win, not on who would do the most damage to the country.
I just assumed that Trump had that part sewed up.

One scary MF.

(1,459 posts)He does look like someone that can carry the MAGA torch, without being as outrageous as Trump.
But will he outshine the boss, because we know TFG wont allow that.

(41,013 posts)& that's what their side needs more than anything, is someone who can keep most of the cult intact when Trump croaks or goes to jail or gets committed. But, I wonder if Trump's ego can handle the possibility of being upstaged? I doubt Vance would be obsequious like Rubio or others. He'd be respectful but would also be trying to command attention & a following of his own.

(26,507 posts)who best will help him win. He doesn't care about having a person that can take over should he not make it through his term. His only focus is to win in November.
Remember - for him - the stakes are high. He needs to win to escape any present and future accountability.

(19,200 posts)Compared to the fact that so many people in this country are actually supporting a sick f*ck, criminal, rapist, Putin-compromised, lying fraud who will have IMMUNITY to do basically anything he wants, if he actually gets enough votes to occupy the White House again.
Who is VP in that situation is irrelevant.

(453 posts)Lara Trump. She has done everything he has told her to do with the RNC. She will do everything he tells her to do as VP. She released that awful workout video hoping to capture young voters. He is waiting for the Biden mess to calm down before he announces her. He can't wait for the cat fight (debate) between Kamala and Lara...
