Who would Trump pick as running mate?
I'm sure if Trump could pick himself he would, but who do you think this egomaniac would pick as his running mate?
If, God forbid, he wins the presidency, I'm guessing he would do something that would result in him being impeached in the first year - so whomever he picks as running mate would end up as President.
Eek - I can't even imagine a world where that happens!

Someone on another forum I frequent suggested that Trump made a deal with Christie for his endorsement.

He's still alive and kicking at 88, so why not?

Re: Who would Trump pick as running mate?
Donald Trump is many things but one thing he is not is stupid. He may not come across as such but he is a smart strategist. He is going to pick somebody appealing. I originally thought Rubio but I think that ship has sailed. I don't think it will be Christie. I also don't see him picking Carson. My prediction is he is going to pick someone who is a popular, experienced politician. Perhaps Kasich. We shall see.

I doubt it will be Carson or Rubio or Kasich. Can't see it being any of them. Or Lying Ted.
I doubt it will be Christie too.
Maybe Palin?

He'd be a bigger idiot than everyone thought to chose her.
She is the nail in the coffin for any candidate who picks her.
As mentioned above, he is many things, but not stupid. So I can't see him picking her.

Not for VP, but I bet she gets a cabinet postion. Maybe Energy because Alaska has oil. Or State?   
There was a time when I would have said Carson because I think the religious right really liked him, but oddly they love Trump already.  
I think Christie, unless he's going to be AG. And I don't mean American Girl.

Re: Who would Trump pick as running mate?
My guess would have been Paul Ryan to solidify the conservative base. But he just ran for VP last year. Too bad Romney was a waste.
Carson is too wishy washy. Rubio maybe but Rubio couldn't hold his own state so he brings nothing. Christie will likely be AG based on the speech he gave in FL. There is too much hate with Kaisch and Cruz for them to be picked.
It's going to be somebody with a strong following in a key swing state for sure.

See I would agree with you. But he's done so many stupid things. Said so many stupid things. And he's still hugely popular. I think he thinks he can do no wrong. It's almost like he enjoys shocking everyone how push he can far things and still gain steam. So I think he could grab her and make it work.
If there's anything I've seen so far in this election in my opinion… Is that it's like Alice in Wonderland… What's right is wrong and what's wrong is right and what is up is down and what's down is up. It's a crazy train.

Re: Who would Trump pick as running mate?
If his advisors are advising him correctly, he would pick Kaisch. But, I think it will be Cruz. Trump needs that right wing conservatism to take the bible belt.

The bible belt would vote for Vladimir Putin if he was wearing red. Trump doesn't need Cruz to win the bible belt.
Now that I am thinking about it, Rubio almost makes sense. Trump is going to get crushed by the African American vote. If he can do better with the Latino vote that might really help him.

Re: Who would Trump pick as running mate?
I don't think it will be Carson, Kasich, Cruz, or Christie.
Carson just told everyone that he only supported Trump because he offered him a cabinet position, which is against some code (18 U.S. Code § 599 states that “whoever, being a candidate, directly or indirectly promises or pledges the appointment, or the use of his influence or support for the appointment of any person to any public or private position or employment, for the purpose of procuring support in his candidacy shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if the violation was willful, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.”) He'd be a fool to choose him.
Kasich said he wouldn't do it, so there's that.
Cruz- I just can't see this happening. Same for Rubio.
Christie is from NJ, so not enough diversity for the ticket.
He doesn't need the Bible Belt.
I have no clue really. Someone with a lot of legislative knowledge probably.

Yes, definitely State. Since you can see Russia from Alaska, she's an expert on international affairs.
