During a “Women For Trump” rally Thursday night at the Tampa Convention Center, senior White House adviser Kellyanne Conway made an unprompted statement about Vice President Mike Pence.
Of course Pence will stay on the ticket, he brings the evangelicals the one group Trump can’t afford to lose, not to mention the fact that our misogynist-in-chief would never put a woman on the ticket unless it was Ivanka.
Haley is also letting party insiders and fundraisers know she has no idea why anyone would think Trump is so crazy he just might not make it to the reelection campaign. No idea at all. Why anyone is thinking that. If they are. Not saying they are. But if they are it’s puzzling. And she doesn’t agree with it. Just saying.
Everyone in Trumpland is stocking up on knives and watching their backs. This looks like something out of imperial Rome or the Ptolemic dynasty. It will be very interesting to see who gets it first.
Of course, Trump could decide he doesn’t need a vice-presidential candidate on the ticket. Trump for President is sufficient and preferred. Not sharing the billing with anyone this time around. After all, Trump is the chosen one … not the chosen part of some kind of team.
Donald Trump could take a big wet shit on a Bible while shooting Mike Pence in the head and he wouldn’t lose evangelicals. They are best understood as a sociopolitical tribe/cult, not a religion.
