Report: Trump Repeatedly Pushed For Ivanka To Be His Running Mate In 2016

There is more than one district in this country that would probably love to have Ivanka as their rep - a thought that makes me shudder.

Nearly every other adult you cross paths with during your daily routine thinks Trump is a great President.

Let that sink in. It’s reason enough to never leave the house, which this pandemic has rendered a plausible option.

Of course he did. If you see things in reality show terms, as he does, and you want ratings and splashy optics, she was an obvious choice. All his other interest in her aside, he was thinking in terms of casting and news cycles, not fitness for the job.

The new (I’m crossing my fingers) Senate and House DEM majorities in January will have to write a slew of new laws, including NOT having a FATHER / DAUGHTER team as president / vice president.

Just remember Trump thinks of himself as a mob boss, so picking Ivanka would be cosa nostra. It’s been the same with how Trump thinks of the Presidency and governing.

Those same people thought Iraq was going swimmingly and Katrina was handled with great care. Not that it is good news - jut not new news.

It’s like the breadth of the universe, his stupidity. It beggars the imagination.

Nobody ever told Fat Nixon that VP candidates aren’t subjected to the casting couch.

Then again, there’s Q-Tip.
