If Trump keels over and descends downward to his everlasting afterlife, not one of the individuals on his listing needs to be trusted with the presidency. Nobody on his listing could be certified or encourage confidence in the event that they needed to step in and be president.

Trump went with Pence in 2016 as a result of he was attempting to court docket the right-wing evangelical vote. In 2024, Trump seems to be searching for a token that he thinks will enhance him with a gaggle of voters. Trump has ladies, African-People, a Cuban-America, and a few white guys.

It will be hilarious if Trump picked Katie Britt, however regardless of who he chooses, none of his choices look more likely to transfer the needle in 2024.
