Tim Scott seems a bit like a pushover. Maybe you're right.
Vivek is probably too much brains and personality for Trump to deal with.
Then again, Tucker might overshadow him too...can't have that
Maybe Tim Scott is going to be the pick.

Loyalty is number one with Trump, it is the only thing a VP is worth if you measure all the VP's still alive. I have no idea how this will play out, but fairly certain Vivek has done what was expected of him and the field will not be able to close on Trump to use a racing analogy. Biden is self destructing before everyone's eyes. So lets see this marathon to the end.

On that vein, Sarah Sanders, beat the crap out of the media when she was Press Secretary (unlike our current one, the incoherent lesbian, Pepi Le Pew). Sanders took incoming and swatted those losers every day of the week.
On Doug Bergum... he may too old in our day and age, but this guy is a winner. He got lost in the shuffle and then delegated to ignored also-ran status but the few times I heard on the stump, he was dead-on about the problems we have and his solutions to correct them. Coming from an oil state will be an added plus.
Two businessmen running on how they will fix the government and the economy -- proven winners too -- are hard to knock.
All the others named would disappoint me -- especially Tucker. He'll be more effective for the country with his political commentary than he would be as a Veep, imo.

And all 3 would be fine in cabinet positions.
I like Dr. Ben Carson but think his time has past.
I also like Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders but she is not doing well in the polls right now.
Gov. Doug Bergum has that look either from grampa from the Munster's or "Paulie Walnuts" from The Sopranos.
Nothing will be what you and I want unless Trump surprises people.

DeSantis followed Richard Lynn Scott who by all accounts had even less charisma as a Florida Governor than DeSantis has, going national has its own qualifications go figure.

I thought Vivek would tone down the personal attacks, instead he ratcheted them up. A lot of people are going to be put off by his behavior, I could care less.

It was on an odd channel that I strangely get on broadcast TV here. The moderators were definitely throwing hard questions.

Why would anyone waste any time watching a debate between people who have zero chance at the nomination?
I haven't watched a single Republican debate, except for the clips I post here.
The only other biggest waste of time when it comes to Republicans were those who thought about giving money to Liz Cheney...like she had a chance...LMAO

Fireworks at the Republican debate... is what you posted in the thread starter.
Seriously speaking it appears that they have the goods (proof positive) on then Vice President Biden. If his party wants him under the buss Biden is the ultimate embarrassment the democrat party.

Has nothing to do with my complaint.
Vivek’s comments were rude and classless.
Not the way I would address a former governor and UN ambassador.
You?

It's all he talks about.
Are you saying it's nothing but an act? He doesn't really mean it? He's working for Soros?  |
Check out the following from the Conservative Treehouse from late July:

When you support trade agreements that Wall Street, the Club for Growth, and the Chamber of Commerce highly favor, you are a globalist and anti-MAGA.

Do you think Tim Scott likes Donald Trump?
See: https://theconservativetreehouse.com...con-tim-scott/
Tim Scott as a VP would be a traitor/mole just like Mike Pence.
