I have heard idea after idea as to who Trump should choose as his running mate. I have heard half a dozen reasons and and who knows the purposes.

Could it be that most have overlooked the real reason and purpose. Now that he is older and unmistakably at least 4 years closer to the grave, that purpose has become unmistakably more important. Should President Trump die, or more likely becomes disabled, we need to have a competent, strong leader who can step in. More than that, with Trump limited to 4 years, it would be far better to provide a smooth transition to a competent and knowledgeable person.

If for some reason Trump were not able to finish his term, do we want a rino to take the rein.

Hopefully, Trump will finish his term. Still do you want him to give the advantage to someone who knows not what he is doing, as with Pres Bush.

The choice is Trumps, not mine. But if I could provide him just a little advice, I would suggest that he chose someone a lot like him. It may or may not help him get into office. However, it just might be a big help to the country.

Incidentally, it just might send a good strong message to those in the establishment wing of the Republicans.
