From reading blips on the Web, seems like Trump is narrowing down his list of VP choices. I hope he wins but as important, his VP pic will most likely be the next R nominee. From the short lists I've been seeing, anyone stand out as a future President that has solid 2A standings? "My most important issue" for without it we are.... I see Doug Bergum from ND name being brought up lately. He just appears to be a RICH weasel to me. Don't know why ? What kind of insights do you all have? Please keep on topic. ![smile smile](/forum/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)

According to FOX yesterday, they favor Tim Scott or Marco Rubio. I think either would be a good choice.

Kristi Noem. He will sweep all of the swing States, especially the ones with female Democrat governors. Nope, she has done shot herself in the dog so to speak. She'll lose the female vote.

Kristy Noem is the only one I know that supports strongly 2A.
Her shooting a mess of a dog only solidifies my stance on her. Scott,Rubio,Lake,Vance,ect, how do they stand on 2A?

100% agree Danny!
News about it were nothing other then pulling the wokes heartstrings.
I'd love to see her as VP.
Edited to add:, ND Governor Bergum just strikes me as a swamper?

If Trump runs with Bergum, it would be hard for me to vote for him. I know the way Bergum runs ND. He is a D claiming to be a R.

Elise Stefanik - supposedly strong 2A supporter, woman, well liked in New York, holds some fairly high positions in the house - does not seem like she scores very high on the crazy scale She wasn't a huge Trump supporter back in his first term but she seems to have come around strongly for Trump. One wonders but I think she's legit in her support and not just on the bandwagon.

I wouldn't sweat the second seat as much as I would just getting the right man elected to the first chair.
If you look back over the history of the Republic the guy in the second seat has a less than 20% chance needing to step up as a spare (9) and exactly the same (9) of getting elected to the first chair in their own right. But there is about a 30% chance a second seater will become a first chair (15).

Probably of more importance is getting the right folks into Congress, and not ol'buddy that brings home the bacon either. We need fighters that refuse to play by the swamp rules. And I don't care what party they call themselves as long as it ain't demoncrat. Guys, and gals, if 2A and the rest of the Constitution is to be saved we've got to vote and vote hard for candidates who put the Constitution first and foremost, ALL OF IT, ahead of party or personal gain.

They is no way I would vote for Bergum for anything. He is a good buddy of one world order Bill Gates. I would not vote before I vote for him or Joe. I have seen his ways in ND. Do you really think we are going to vote ourselves out of this mess? That is just what the want you to think. It buys them another four year/ Maybe next time?

Mark, I will vote Trump 100% no matter who he picks. That being said, I'm not sure "why" I don't like Burgum?. Overall, ND is a GREAT state but something about him makes me wonder?
What is it you don't like about him? Is he a strong 2A supporter?

That story is so yesterday no one will remember it. The women who have a problem with how work is done on a farm will likely vote for Biden no matter who he picks.

Vivek fills that slot well plus he's young and connects with younger voters. He's also very engaging on the stump. Berghum strikes me as just a stump. A wealthy stump.

It's all irrelevant, no way Trump is going to occupy the White House again. And your reason? They didn't want him in there the last go-around...do you think anything has changed? Other than the S&P is at an all-time high.
