One small correction: Kristi Noem is the Governor of South Dakota, not a Senator.

Marjorie Taylor Greene says Obama is actually the president so how is she going to try to impeach President Biden? How is 'everything' Biden's fault?

Marjorie Taylor Greene just auditioned for VP in front on the country!

These are the dumbest people on the planet.

And this is the funniest 2024 election T: t.co/mtZXE00EFj

Had forgotten all about her, then I'm not a real follower of MAGA states. You're point on MTG is well taken my friend. That would absolutely eliminate the possibility of impeachment. The one that really scares me, though being a New Yorker is Stefanik. I love how the right thinks she is smart because she went to Harvard (don't they trash Harvard?!?). Remember one thing Orange Hitler went to Wharton at Penn!

Michael, I get that you should warn us of the VP selection(s) but do you have to make it so frightening? The list alone made me nearly hyperventilate. These maga creatures alone should come with a warning: IQ's ALONE ARE SCARY ENOUGH, POLICIES WILL KILL YOU! That politics have devolved into the less statesman like lane since social media came online, isn't it time we detour away from the high road and get our hands dirty enough to attract the fence sitters? Granted a Gentleman vs a Lunatic should be a slam dunk but MSM isn't gonna allow such a narrative to permeate the nation's consciousness after never calling out the myriad anti voting laws enacted...

I hate speculation, but I’ve said this before: Kristi Noem has an unusual thing going for her: Her state leads the list for money-laundering “trusts” used by billionaires. She is definitely “tRump’s type.”

Yes, Dems need to go on the offensive on this. Any of these choices for VP is bad because they are extreme MAGA republicons. Marco Rubio won't help the MAGA ticket. Just as Sarah Palin may have killed John McCain's chances for the presidency, MTG and these others currently vying for the VP nod are just as bad and should put the ultimate nail in the former guy's coffin.

Please, please let him pick big ole Marge to be his running mate, the right hates her as much as the left and anyone in-between. I truly believe that will put the nail in the coffin. and while we are talking about coffin's I hope mother nature steps in here and gets rid of this stain on our country and moment in history!!!

A necessary reminder.

The group is likely now or later.

That’ s why we VOTE in November!

The choice is clear: Biden or Dictatorship.

They're all "petulant far right frauds," careerists interesting only in climbing the political ladder, with the ultimate goal of grabbing the brass ring- the Presidency. Of course, by the time they manage it, American democracy will be dead, so perhaps they'll ascend to the throne by royal decree. With any luck, though, they'll kill off their adversaries. That should be fun to watch. We could keep score....

Boebert also beyond the pale even for them.....

The only other person you could have mentioned was Kari Lake. She would probably forgo the Senate run for the VP run, although some states allow for running for two offices at the same time. Tim Scott is a disgusting sycophant.

Great article and some really great points.

Why Trump won't pick these folks:

MTG - If Trump picks a woman, it will be someone very attractive. He'd never have himself stand next to an unattractive woman. He's shallow like that.

Tim Scott/Marco Rubio - Trump would never pick a black or hispanic man. He is a big old racist and many of his followers would have a hard time accepting a person of color potentially becoming president if something were to happen to Trump.

He really doesn't care if they are qualified. It's all about presentation and show. He will end up picking someone that looks good on stage, but who is completely willing to be subservient to him. I'm sure Lindsey would gladly get down on his knees for Trump. LOL

It’s important to look at family records to see at what age, health and deterioration each candidate is up against. That will be the history window we should be looking through.
