Trump wants someone from NY State to be his VP. President and VP cannot be from the same state.
(Remember how Cheney had to hustle back to a Wyoming home, from TX, in 2000?)
It sounds insane but it gains him a poison pill and a true partner in crime for his vp.
Equally as bad a thought is what if it is BARR he wants as his vp? Although I really don't know where Barr claims as home these days, hell he is never even in the US most days.

(13,491 posts)leaders make him. And then it'll be somebody like Lindsay Graham. Someone who has been sycophantic but clean of all personal criminalities.
If it gets really bad, then it'll be someone like Mitt Romney. The Republican's last hope. But if that happens, we know it's bc Pence has to be kicked to the curb.

(13,491 posts)leadership would never allow Rudy to be named to the ticket now. NO WAY. He's toxic.
I don't feel confident in much these days, but I"m confident about this.

(56,582 posts)It's not that the President and VP can't be from the same state, it's that they can't win that states' electoral votes. If they're writing off NY anyways then it doesn't really matter.
