Bottom post of the previous page:
From a pure strategy standpoint; I don't understand (nor should I)the rumored finalists for Veep.
Rubio: Other than being weak and ineffective, both he and Trump being Florida residents is an odd gamble. And already have a GOP Mayor if trying to get the Cuban / Miami vote.
Vance: While i feel he's been much better / Sharper on the Stump / Sunday Shows; he's still kind of a moron.
Burgam: He's strong on energy / fossil fuels and big business. His stance on abortion is a loser and like 12 people live in his state. He's the best option (on paper) but brings all the excitement as a Mike Pence.
All are pretty weak options and bring zero excitement.
IMO Trump should go with Hailey based on primaries. I can't stand her, personally but expands his base.
I would go with Tulsi or Vivek. But Ramaswamy would outshine Trump and his ego won't allow it.

Hayley would be the smart pick.
It shores him up with women and ingratiates him with what's left of the old guard in the party. It also has the benefit of rendering her politically inert. She's already dropped to her knees with the last of her dignity and is sucking off the boss now after handing over her delegates.
Much hay is being made about Kamala because she's the VP. We didn't want to talk about her at all prior to the debate because she's as big a mushmouth as he is. Vice Presidents in practice are typically worthless.

Tulsi would actually make sense because she's as much of a Russian agent as good ol' Donald is.
As for Vivek, I could never support someone named after a dude I killed in Elder Scrolls: Oblivion.

Someone hit Trump with something. Some bleeding around his ear.
Can't imagine it was a firearm but reports are there was an audio "pop".
No way was it a .50 or any other substantial caliber and he'd have any of his ear / side of head remaining even if "just a graze".
The crowd didnt seem to panic or disperse at all. My guess is an air soft.
It's starting.....

I also can't believe it took this long for someone to take a shot at him.

Even if he were actually President right now this wouldn't be a violent insurrection. It would be an attempted assassination, which frankly I'd like to see more of in American politics. A lot of countries have a long and positive history when it comes to assassinating problematic political figures. *tips hat to the Japanese*

I was being ironical. You're not the only one with very dry sense of humor. I'm fine with assassinations, violent insurrections and over throwing governments.
If it's good enough for the CIA and the Deep State, it's good enough for moi.

I know homie. I just wanted to point that out for the rest of the class, you know, the lurkers who may or may not be mentally handicapped.
