    Isnt the normal selection someone who can bring in an important state?
    Nobody will bring in Ca or NY. That kind o leaves Texas as SC and SD are small change. I really thought RFK Jr was a good offer, but I reckon he's a nogo. Wisely, he probably wants ot keep his head intact. His on party would off him if they thought him a real threat.
     
    If it was me I'd be looking hard at Kristi Noem, Kari Lake if she grows her hair long, Candace Owens, and a few of the famous bikini/lingerie models. Lauren Boebert too. And who can forget actress Stacey Dash.

    For me, any of them could bring in a state of arousal.

    I'm an open minded guy.
     
    He might have name dropped but he didn't mention who is running mate will be, more smoke and mirrors because it us still too early.

    He doesn't need to designate a vp to win over the people of the republican party
     
    In all seriousness, do any of you really believe he can win? I mean, I would vote for him over ANY Dem but I just do not think he can win again. There is so much animosity and out right vitriol against him and he tends to feed it.
    I agree, but hope for the best, prepare for the worst. Our country wont withstand another 4 years of Biden.
     
    Without cheating he can win..... Already did last time.
    If our own side will quit telling each other that "it's rigged and we can't win" then he definitely can win. If we keep killing our own turn out then he won't. We need the white males to turn out like they did in 2016. If for no other reason than for a chance to get a mass deportation done, GO VOTE, and STOP SAYING WE CANT WIN. ENCOURAGE EBERYONE TO VOTE. If they do in fact cheat again, then we will know. The perfect cheating storm happened last time but if we don't turn out you can be sure we will lose and all is lost
     
    Interesting, he contacted RFK JR. Never heard back. Seems like he's tamed his rhetoric, more presidential.

    Trump reveals criteria for running mate, name drops two ...

    6 hours ago — Former President Trump discussed what he looks for in a potential vice president, mentioning two notable Republicans as possible contenders.
    I liked Trump's old rhetoric. A smooth file doesn't change shit.

    We don't need a 'presidential' president, we need a headhunter that doesn't care if his Tweets are 'mean.' This isn't Nextdoor.

    We need a man who can get people to work together, not divide them because of his ego. Though admittedly, thats a near impossibility
     
    I'm afraid we're beyond 'working together.'

    One side wants the America we grew up in, the other side wants that side dead.

    Sadly, if you look at the overall picture, its FUBAR. Trump, or no Trump. :mad:

    That's been said about this country before. I obviously agree with how big of a problem we have, but i don't agree that there's no possibility of having a good future for my children. I can't do that and no one else should either.

    The defeated amd the LGOWI among us are very much a problem if we are to push for real change. Apathy and anarchy are our enemies.

    That's true. I mean, on one hand, I agree with so much and can see reality for what it is. On the other, I know if our side doesn't stop this "we can't win" mantra, our turn out will kill us. "They" wouldn't be doing all they are doing to Trump if they thought they could just control the elections. The other side knows its quite possible which is why they are working so hard to keep Trump off the ballot. That should tell everyone on our side something.

    Strongly disagree, what we need to do is see beyond the tactics used to keep us divided, finding common ground and being united as one will get the Republic back on track.

    Its not 'defeated' its looking at the whole picture, the outside forces that have been engineering things for over a century (if not since before time), to destroy the liberty of man, and seeing that things must run their course.

    If you have not noticed that the sleeping giant (the regular people) are waking up and the pendulum is slowing, turning even, then you aren’t paying attention.

    Nowhere in the Bible does it say that we should sit idly by and just let things happen. It says quite the opposite in fact.

    This is the basic reality. Going back to 1900 both parties at least shared a good deal of basic values, yes there were differences but it wasn’t night and day. Now the left wants the right in camps, dead, or shunned from society. The right wants the left dead, and what’s left of the center sway back and forth to whoever offers them the easiest solutions to their problems even if said solution obviously won’t work. The actual fix is coming if we like it or not, within the next 10 -15 years our debt will reach critical mass, even optimistic analysis shows at our current spending rate in 20 years even projecting the most favorable economic conditions our debt will be mathematically impossible to service or repay, we won’t be able to borrow another dime, we will then start to print money at a rate that will rival Germany in the early 1930’s, the dollar will collapse, and the government will be unable to continue paying for anything. This at this point has become almost a certainty, the only question is when the bond market will dry up, it’s already been showing signs of it, it’s now routine that our government can’t sell the bonds they wish to and have to resort to schemes such as Quantitative easing(basically one arm of the government loaning money to the other arm) to avoid outright printing money. When all of this occurs one of two things will happen, we will either accept Chinese style communism because there will be offers or someone rises and we revert back to sanity. The government of the US has now effectively become a business that doesn’t even have a product, and it’s finances make the policies of Enron look sound.

    Youre reading in stuff I neve said nor implied. Yes, I see some change, but far too little far too late.

    This, amongst other reasons, supports what I said above. Anything now, is basically too little, too late.

    The pendulum stops swinging in one direction slowly, then starts swinging in the opposite direction slowly. As it gains momentum, it moves faster and faster until it overshoots center and then swings too far in that direction.

    Either one is still serving Mammon. If I'm to serve anyone, it will be the almighty.

    King James Bible
    No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

    Sadly, as much as I believe in 'working together for the good', the more I see the more I begin to agree. What Biden has done with the border is unforgivable. He belong in prison right beside Richard Cheney. Or worse.

    Defeatists talk, you only see what they want you too see on social media, the news etc. Moderate people that own the middle of both parties don’t make for good videos or tv headlines. The extreme edge from both sides is what we see, even news posted daily here, if it’s vanilla or room temperature the story doesn’t get much attention. If you want to believe evil people outweigh good people I’m not going to try and change your thinking. As a whole i believe moderate democratics are just is sickened on what’s happening to the Country as anyone else, we don’t see them, we see Crazy Karen with her 2x face-diapers still believing the unvaxxed are a danger, you can’t waste time with these folks. To fix the Country you have to stop building walls by saying “fuck them”, find common ground and build on it. One issue that really seems to be dividing dems is the swarms of illegals further shitting up their already blue communities.

    I think we've been circling the drain for a while. And I think we may be at the point that we aren't circling now, we're actually headed down the drain.

    But I have 4 grandkids. They range in age from a few months to one that will be 5 soon.

    When it actually does collapse I want to be able to look into their faces and tell them I did what I could with the choices I had... before I had to start shooting.

    I may jump for the lifesaving rope, miss it by 10 feet, and plummet to my death. But dammit, I'm going to make the jump.

    Can Trump win? I don't know.

    Can he fix it if he wins? I don't know. I doubt it.

    But dammit, if he runs, I'll vote for him... Because.

    About the best I can hope for is that if he wins he can hold off the shitstorm long enough that I can be prepared for one hell of a last stand.

    Because fuck 'em. That's why.

    If the executive can take over the legislative on a whim are they equal?

    In all of the blah blah blah above I don't see where you listed that duties of the VP as president of the senate.
    He can preside over meetings, vote only to cast a tie breaker vote and preside over the counting of the electoral college in the presidential election. Other than that he has zero authority to direct the senate to do anything. It's a ceremonial position.
    Someone with enough balls to walk into the Senate ,tell Chuck or Mitch to sit down, shut the fuck up, I'm President in this body and gonna be the HMFIC of the shit.

    Maybe an explanation is in order.

    The reason Democraps are getting sick of illegals comes down to them showing up in their little protected cities.

    It was all good and well as long as "those people" were staying in the southern states. It wasn't their problem.

    When Governors like DeSantis started busing them to the sanctuary cities, the blue voters started noticing a huge increase in theft, rapes and other shitty crimes in their beloved homes. Coffers are being raided to support these freeloaders. Taxes and use fees are going up to pay for that support.


    Now, it has become their problem also, and they don't like it one bit.

    They are (hopefully) waking up.

    Only to their own losses. As long as they dont hurt they dont care. If the pain stopped they would go right back to business as usual. Pain is a powerful tool.
