etherealtruth - Nikki Haley is his best bet if he wants to win. He needs someone to the right of him, someone religious, if he wants to get out the vote.

I don't think he'll pick his sons (I'm not sure how old they are but the 2 older ones are adults with young families of their own I think) I suppose he could pick his daughter, LOL. But if Hillary wins, and I think she will (though I like Bernie better, but I have no say as a Canadian) I absolutely think there will be a woman VP pick on the republican ticket. It's how they roll. And it won't be Sarah Palin...Trump's face during her speech when she endorsed him said it all

You're saying she'd switch horses? flamingdem Feb 2016 #65

He said some very flattering things about her before the endorsement. Bucky Feb 2016 #67
