You never wanted to be President, it's just expected of you, and so you've decided to totally throw the game.  It'll be okay buddy. It'll be okay.

I could actually see Trump taking Jeb! as his VP as a power move. What could fit your narcissistic, macho brand better than reducing the greatest threat against you (money-wise) to a simpering toady and making him your head underling?

Baloogan posted:http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/nov/29/jeb-bush-says-he-would-support-donald-trump-over-hillary-clinton I was watching that interview (on Face the Nation) and this was a follow-up question to a rather comprehensive (for Jeb!) attack on Trump, calling him 'misinformed at best, and preying on people's fears at worst' and ill-equipped to be CIC. Of course they brought up the loyalty pledge and he walked it all halfway back because Jeb Bush doesn't care about winning and boom - there's your headline.

I just got done watching Trump's meet the press phone interview from this morning and his deflection and doubling down skills are amazing. He just rolls with it and nothing phases him. Chuck Todd went on and on about the 'tailgating' trying to get Trump to prove it/disprove it. In the end all he has to say is 'Chuck, I saw it, I know what I saw and I've had hundreds, maybe thousands of people call my office and tell me that they saw the same.' The they moved onto the PP shooting and Trump more or less admitted that the guy was probably against PP itself, but because he was disturbed by the videos, so it was more or less PP's fault, then of course ended it with something like 'but I can't say for sure, he or anyone else hasn't come out with his motives, so we can't know until then'. He's un-fact-chekable. It's amazing.

How long have those fact check sites been up? Like 10 years probably more? People probably got desensitized when they saw every god drat politician & their mother regularly being caught in lies. ALL of them. It is expected & celebrated now. edit: unless you're on the other team.

He could kill his son; ending a family embarrassment, making Jeb! a martyr for True Conservatism, and reenergizing their voting base to replace those murdering libs.

Lycus posted:Would they have to concede Florida? Or couldn't Jeb just have another Florida-only running mate, and then have the Senate elect Rubio if need be? At the very least, they would need to change the rules of the RNC to allow this, since they only account for nominating one Vice President.

The Florida ballots could have his name on them, right? The electors could cast votes for Rubio/Donald Duck if necessary. Or just throw both names on the ballot anyways and go "who cares" if the Supreme Court meddles, which they won't, worst case is the republican controlled congress needs to vote.

They're bound by Florida state law to vote for the nominees of their party, though as far as I can see there's no penalty described if they don't. Also, these state-level elector laws are of questionable constitutionality.

Your precious slumlord is probably - probably - intelligent enough to realize any "har har beta cuck owned" macho man cool guy points he would get from making Jeb his VP are balanced out by, yes, the fact that this means all Jeb has to do is unleash Chang once and he might even be a national hero.

TheTatteredKing posted:Trump would be shot day two. Though maybe he would be anyway. https://youtu.be/e-cKPe7E-wI EDIT: Also Bush wasn't angling for a VP slot, he actually came out pretty hard against Trump: quote:"Look, I just think he's uninformed. He knows what he's saying. He's smart. He's playing you guys like a fiddle, the press, by saying outrageous things and garnering attention," Bush told moderator John Dickerson. "That's his strategy, is to dominate the news. The simple fact is that he's been wrong on Syria and on the refugees pretty consistently. And no one's holding him to account. He first said we had no interest in being involved in Syria. And then he said let the Russians take out ISIS. And then he said let ISIS take out [Syrian President Bashar al-]Assad. Back and forth it goes. And the net effect of this is — in these really serious times, he's not a serious leader." ISIS is an alternative acronym for the Islamic State militant group. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2015/11/29/jeb-bush-trump-is-uninformed-and-preying-on-peoples-fears/ Montasque fucked around with this message at 18:43 on Nov 29, 2015 |

Michael Corleone posted:True, the GOP field will thin out after NH. But, as a DEM, what do you think the ticket will look like? Does O'Malley have a chance at VP or is Hillary giving it to Cuomo? Or would she take Bernie on, can't really do that with them both being so old though. Are you just spouting off random names you know or something? There's no reason Clinton would want any of them as VP because they don't bring anything worthwhile to the table nor are they rising stars in the party. Fulchrum posted:I think Julian Castro is probably the strongest contender for the Vice Presidency. This is the real answer. Joementum posted:And the winner of the award for first 2016 candidate to call the Colorado Springs attack "domestic terrorism" goes to....

Huckabee's comment isn't referring to the shooting as being the tragedy/terrorism that took place at the PP location. He's referring to abortion.

Patter Song posted:There's precedent for doing some sketchy dodging of it. Bush/Cheney had Cheney (who had lived in Texas for over a decade) run as Richard Cheney of Wyoming despite not living in Wyoming for 15 years at the time. It's not really sketchy. All you must do is have like an apartment somewhere and you can say "yeah I'm not from the same state". The original intention was to avoid state electors, in a time before the popular vote for president, just trying to give each elector's vote to someone from the same state, to try to boost their chances of having a native son become president (since as we know, in the original system the presidential candidate with the second most votes became VP, not just a loser). And in that time, just up and moving states wasn't nearly so easy to do while maintaining your political support.
