Donald Trump Narrows Vice Presidential Shortlist

[StevieM]

~snip~

Donald Trump has narrowed his vice presidential picks to three: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence and former Speaker Newt Gingrich.

Each of the three potential running mates brings different advantages—and baggage—to the presumptive Republican nominee’s campaign. The final pick will show a lot about how Trump thinks he can win in November.

Unlike some other Trump campaign decisions, the vice presidential pick is also pretty final. He’ll have to live with his running mate through November, and, if he wins, through a four-year term in office.

Here’s a look at the three men considered to still be in the running.

1. Well, we all know late night comedy is praying for Christie. nt

5. I think he will probably pick Christie but I am praying that he picks Newt Gingrich.

Gingrich would be a total disaster for the GOP, just like he always has been.

I hope that Trump is stupid enough to pick him.

2. Does his campaign want to be shot, stabbed, or poisoned?

Talk about a reverse sophie's choice. Its a veritable who's who of assholes and has beens.

3. Glad he's not smart enough to pick someone like Kaisch

Picking Newt makes you wonder if this is really just a big joke to Trump.

6. My order

My order of preference that he picks would be:
1. Gingrich- would be a disaster.
2. Christie- would be a joke
3. Pence- is a RWer and would solidify the GOO's RW base.

8. I am also hoping he picks Gingrich. I agree that he would be a disaster for Trump.

I would rather Trump pick Pence than Christie. Chris Christie is a good prosecutor and a good liar. He could effectively spread the GOP lies.

7. For those who don't want the bait and click OP.

It's Christy, Pence, and Gingrich.

The text is white bread bland.
Don't bother clicking through. Not worth it.

are the numbers in his IQ........

10. I think it will be

pence. All three are disasters, hope Hillary's folks are doing their homework. I'll be standing by to donate when I hear the best scandal!

11. MSNBC is reporting that Trump has said he wants an attack dog. That probably means Chris Christie

but I suppose it could mean Gingrich.
