[forkintheroad7]

Whelp, it actually looks like Jr (of all people) convinced his father to pick him. Noem and Haley were always out. They would be too much of a check on him. Same for Tim Scott or the guy (always forget his name) from Florida.

Boy..I'll be daddy's pleased with him right about now.

The inside story of how Trump chose JD Vance as his running mate

Once a critic, Vance repositioned himself as a faithful ally eager to defend Trump on TV, carry a torch for a younger generation of MAGA figures and fight for voters in the Midwest.

I wouldn't rely on the media, at one point they said Joe was a strong sharp minded candidate. Then they dumped Joe for a Hoe. Best to email Trump and ask.

And after the debate performance, those minds all changed. In unison.
This source wasn't the only one relaying that. Reports say that Trump wanted someone who wouldn't have the creds to oushine him (like Pence did).

I'm UK, how did Pence outshine Trump because surely he would then be the nominee?

(sorry, I corrected your spelling)

If Biden is sharp as a tack, why replace him? Behind the scenes, the string pullers pushed him.

Because...Trump ran in the primaries and got the votes to get the delegates in 2016....that's how it works in this country. Pence didn't run for President in 2016.
Trump got lucky that Pence knew the role of VP and was a loyal soldier...until he had to stand up in the Senate in 2020 and do his job..at which time, Trump threw him under the bus.

Anyone who saw that debate knew the game was up and that Biden needed to step aside.
And he so, of his own accord. That's a man who will put his country above everything else.

In reality, Obama had to clean up Shrub's messes with the economy and Iraq, Biden had to clean up trump's disastrous COVID response. If trump is re-elected he will inherit a strong economy and no doubt take credit for it as he did 8 years ago.

Strong economy? dude, whatever it is your snorting, I want some.

I watched Hill Billy Elegy, which is the life story of JD Vance. It then hit me, he is already someone of a cultural icon, just like Trump himself.

Politics is all about selling yourself and a myriad of ways to do it, but without charisma and notoriety, you better have a ton of cash and the media behind you. Having a ton of cash and the media behind you is often how the Left sells us their politician, in combination of promoting the cult of party, which is selling the notion that everyone is Hitler but them and only they are free from racism and bigotry, etc.

Being a Republican, you don't have the media behind you and will probably not have the loads of cash the DNC normally has to push across candidates like Kamala Harris who neither has charisma or any notoriety outside of politics. So, as a Republican, you better have charisma and/or notoriety, both of which JD has. And like it or not, Trump has charisma, even though he can be abrasive and unlikeable, he also had notoriety combined with the charisma. Because of this notoriety Trump had coming into politics, it is simply harder to sell the notion that a money man like Trump is actually turned into a racist KKK member overnight when he decided to make the fateful decision to enter the dirty world of politics. Trump even dated a black woman for two years and at one point asked Oprah to be his VP bfore entering the world of politics. Again, when Trump asked Oprah to be his VP, it was with the knowledge he knew politics was entertainment. He wanted to sell his brand. Likewise, it will be harder to sell JD to the American public as a racist KKK member himself, especially that he married a wife that is a "darky". But you know they will still try, because they always do. It is all they know really. It is who they have become.

But back to Harris, even with a ton of cash and the media behind you like Harris, you are left with forced public appearances and debates where the truth gets harder and harder to warp into the propaganda talking points you wish to use to sell the candidate, much like continuing to sell Joe Biden as he publicly can't link two words together to complete a sentence.

I think this is the main reason Trump disdains politicians like DeSantis. He simply lacks the charisma and notoriety needed to win as President.

Sadly, what is needed to win elections is not what is needed to judge the best people to get elected, but that is life. At the same time, just because they may be entertainers also does not mean they are not the best people for the job either. All you can do is hope you get lucky as they end up being one of the best people for the job.

The reproductive authoritarian fake hillbilly is not as repulsive as the sexual abuser/business fraud/convicted criminal (who rejects certified democratic elections, America's justice system, and its law enforcement agencies) whose disastrous choice he is.

A half-dozen polls have now tested views of Vance more than once in the last few weeks. In each of them, his already-underwhelming image ratings have deteriorated — sometimes significantly.​

​

And crucially, his struggles appear particularly pronounced among educated voters and women. That would suggest that his derisive past comments about childless women are indeed proving to be liabilities.​

​

But first, the big picture. Vance’s net favorable rating (favorable vs. unfavorable) is now nine points underwater in the FiveThirtyEight average. That’s a marked contrast to other recent running mates, who have generally polled in popular territory.​

​

And notably, three of the repeated polls show about as many people view Vance very unfavorably as have any kind of positive view of him.​

Did he offend all the childless baby murderers?

So sad.

Who will apologize to the babies now?

I'll let you assume the role of explaining to microscopic, mindless amalgams of cells whatever you wish to tell them.

Your hysterical "baby murderers" betrays an irrational, authoritarian fanaticism that most Americans find truly repulsive.

Back on topic, J D Vance (aka “James Donald Bowman,” “James David Hamel. “J D Hamel,” Kitara?) is a disastrous pick by the geezer.

" Crime was up under Donald Trump, and that’s not even counting the crimes he committed.”

~Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz,

It requires very little luck to not elect a guy as your Party's Nominee who has been convicted of 34 felonies. It requires backbone and the ability to speak truth to power. You lack both.
