Joementum posted:I think if he picks a Washington insider it could hurt his standing with the Trumpstaffel. The same thing happened to Reagan in 1976 when he pre-announced that he was going to pick Richard Schweiker as his VP if he was nominated at the convention. Schweiker was a moderate Republican and Reagan picked him to win over Ford delegates (they weren't bound), but it caused some backlash among his most conservative delegates who saw it as a betrayal. Ah. He has no reason to announce before convention but he hasn't needed a reason for anything.

Rubio's talking points: - Caucuses are weird. - Trump under performed, Mitt Romney did better in Nevada. - The Majority of Republicans don't want Donald Trump. - "You don't win the nomination by how many states you win." - We will pick up lots of delegates on Super Tuesday. - Donald Trump doesn't even have any policies.

What are the odds that Trump realizes he has to ask someone if they want to be his VP or not and that they're allowed to say no? (What are the odds that they will actually be allowed to say no?)

Trump claimed a few weeks back that his VP would be someone with lengthy political experience, he might change his mind of course but that's what he said before.

Montasque posted:- "You don't win the nomination by how many states you win." quote:- Donald Trump doesn't even have any policies. Rubio is using talking points from desperately worried liberals itt now? Jim Webb would be a good VP pick too, or that Egyptian-American super vet I've heard about. I can definitely see Trump wanting a bipartisan maverick reach across the aisle type guy to prove his credentials, shame McCain is too old. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...00160&tid=ss_tw Is Mitt "Bain Capital, I'm not concerned about the very poor" seriously talking about education, generational poverty and income inequality? We really did enter the mirror universe at some point

It read: “Trump won around 40% of the latino vote in Nevada, but that accounts for about 1,300 votes. Still more than the two hispanics on the ballot.”

LOL even Obama knows Trump is going to roll come November. Reports he's considering EXTREMELY Pro-Second Amendment and EXTREMELY Pro-Tenth Amendment REPUBLICAN Brian Sandoval as his nominee. Literally the only bone thrown to his own party/base would be Sandoval's pro-choice stance. On a court that was already majority GOP for 45 years and never once banned abortion. They have upheld some restrictions, the types of restrictions Sandoval supports. Mayeb gay marriage. Sandoval was anti-gay marriage but pro "civil union" but now considers the issue "settled law" since SCOTUS has weighed in. DO IT Obama. Nominate this guy. We'll take him. We'll find a Scalia type later to replace Ginsburg. Because in the end, you simply . . . . . . . . CAN'T. STUMP. THE. TRUMP.

What are the chances that Reince Priebus strongarms Kasich into dropping out before Super Tuesday? Maybe he brokers a deal with Kasich and Rubio wherein Kasich is guaranteed the VP slot, which is really all Kasich is running for at this point anyway?
