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

He has to have known, and from the get-go. On the day he announced Pence as his running mate, Trump said–OUT LOUD–that he chose Pence to ensure party unity. That’s not the sort of thing one says when one’s choice is not one’s first/best/preferred choice.

Read at the time he was in agonies of indecision because he really wanted Newt.

Congratulations for being the first to note (or notice?) that the constitution bars a President and Vice President coming from the same state!

Not a ton of pride in noticing things Trump doesn’t…a wide open field.

I was referring to the author of this article and all who commented on it before you. No surprise that Don the Con didn’t know.

In a country where Jerry Springer has a super-popular, long-running show; where monster truck rallies and eating at McDonald’s are all the rage, it’s not at all surprising that Ivanka would be “loved”. There’s a huge swath of Americans who eat circus peanuts, pork rinds and watch Fox News, so maybe Drumpf knows his deplorable base better than his advisors do. Remember, Sarah Palin was extremely popular.

Running government like a Mafia family business?

While not at all surprising…it still boggles the mind.

The fact that a political operative type like Manafort would actually poll on this is fascinating, too.

Has the fat motherfucker resigned? Dropped dead yet?

Nicki Minaj was Donnie’s second choice…

Christie would have been the VP choice if he hadn’t been caught cribbing Fat Donnie’s fries.

Nah. Kushner still held a grudge over Christie jailing Jared’s daddy.
