Trump’s VP choice. Does it really matter? Will it be arm candy, or might he surprise everybody and choose somebody who’s… capable? More likely, it’ll simply be a placeholder, a yes-person, maybe a pretty face.
They won’t work as a team. You wouldn’t think he’d pick anyone who could possibly outshine him or even offer advice. Trump will be off doing his own thing all the time, while the VP will stand dutifully to the side, maybe given some obscure assignment or mission that won’t overshadow or take away from whatever Trump would be opining about.
But we’re getting ahead of ourselves, aren’t we? How easy it has become to speak as if a second Trump term could actually come to pass! There’s a world of hurt circling above him that has to start dropping before too much longer. And if he does somehow make it to November, when push comes to shove, will voters be able to bring themselves to choose him?
He can’t get that far. For numerous reasons, he shouldn’t even be in this process. Many know that, and yet… there he is. He’s way worse than a bad penny.
