    There’s plenty of people that could do better on the ticket. Somehow, defying all logic and probability, they’ll choose someone worse.

        Trump has repeatedly demonstrated that he can and will do whatever the fuck he wants, consequences be damned. I think he is intrinsically aware that JD is a fucking dead weight around his ankles at this point, and that RFK actually has some potential electoral upside. Whether he is willing to trade the twink (JD) for the cuck (RFK) remains to be seen, but I think it would be totally on brand.

          There are never any consequences. Until there are, his whole circus will continue and get worse.

    Trump would be better off making Nikki Haley his VP.

    He could try to win back some of the women voters he lost to Harris. (And the media would love pitting two Indian women against each other.)

    And Haley can hold her own in a debate, which I’m not sure I can say about Vance or Kennedy.
