They planted the subliminal message, so I think he's onto something.

He wouldn't let her campaign with or for him. Rumour was she drank more than rudy and was obnoxious when drunk.

He froze her out when times were good. He isn't going to roll the dice on her with all kinds of cray-cray lap dogs to chose from.

Chump would never go for that. Mike Pence, for all his faults, never tried to upstage his boss. Palin would be doing it all the time and that's why he'd never pick her. Also MTG (who never shuts up) she'd never get picked either.

I'm really hoping Chump will be in a wheelchair or a straitjacket by then. Let's hope it's all water over the dam.

It seems his reporting on J6 has been far ahead of everyone else. Also he was on to the significance of the Willard Hotel in relation to the conspiracy.

Hes basically just tweeting liberal catnip and begging for subscribers.

is mostly repeating what investigative journalists and well connected analysts are indicating, including mining social media for what posters are saying, claiming it as his own insights. The disapproval is mostly though from his offering a great deal of speculation and even outright conspiracism as insider information.

In any case, investigative journalism is very expensive and requires a whole lot of connections that can take decades to develop. The "Abramsons" can't begin to compete.

Morning Consult polled for possible running mates, link below, but I don't know if they put Palin on the list as a choice. Silly of me to put weight on it, but for my own speculation, I think Palin looks too old for him to want to associate with. When has he ever? She might be able to get religious right leaders to want her, though, and tRump has to keep them happy.

... (which he won't), he would never choose a running mate who is as much of an attention-hog as he is.

Pence was perfect for Trump - quiet, submissive, and not the least bit interested in the limelight.

However, at this point you could run Trump-Cthulhu 2024 and he’d still get 70 million votes.

Peak Idiocracy. I can't even imagine staying sane through the campaign, let alone the potential likelihood of it happening.

She's mean and judgmental, so you'd think you'd like her. But she's also a loose cannon. Trump doesn't like competition in that area.

If she doesn't kiss anyone's ass except her own, he won't. I suspect that young Goober from missouri, what's his name? Or maybe a more presentable version of that same guy. Someone who will be an ambassador to the big corporate donors that Trump depends on
