Any of these candidates would be great, but I think Shapiro would bring the biggest electoral advantage.

That’s my bet and hope.

I’m liking mark Kelly. He’s well spoken and a veteran. Very direct as well.

it’s nice to see the Kamalanomenon. The people are hyped.

she’s getting way huger crowd sized than trump can anymore. He’s past his prime. And kind of weird.

The other 32 potential candidates ran in the other direction when Kamela came calling.

I like Tim Walz from Minnesota. Walz gives off folksy, social science teacher vibes because he was one and grew up in a rural town of 400 people.

No DEI candidates?

@Hervé L'Eisa

Exactly, why all candidates are male?

-6 ( +7 / -13 )

No DEI candidates?

They all are. If she hired a black woman there wouldn’t be diversity, equity, nor inclusion.

Every one of these white men is a DEI addition to the campaign.

Mark Kelly is scab, Bashear do not have any baggage,

More people want to see an intelligent, articulate woman speak about policy than want to see a sundowning geriatric ramble about sharks and electricity? Odd.

I am honored to inform you that the GOP has 2, both with serious mental issues.

Now that is real charity!!!

Hervé L'Eisa

No DEI candidates?

Ummm, they are all white males and she is a woman of color. That's called diversity. It reflects the electorate and brings broader appeal.

The other ticket on the other hand... Well, they don't understand diversity to their detriment.

In the meantime, Trump has chickened out of the debate.

4 ( +10 / -6 )

Whoever they choose, they only have to beat that mad lad Trump picked.

He is saying crazier stuff every day. By the time of the election he will be wearing a giant pink wig, a frilly tutu and clucking like a chicken during debates.

Yeah ever since the Kamlanomenon started, trump has only looked weak, weaker, weakest, and weird.

Shapiro and Kelly had been viewed as among the front-runners during her truncated selection process, which began with the vetting of about a dozen names.

I would like to see ex-astronaut Kelly , who can be plain spoken, get into it with Vance about that whole 'DEI' thing.

The MAGA attack vectors against Harris I can't see working except for the most cultish of the cult.

That is the problem with cults.

They tend to become more insular thinking and unaware of thinking outside their sphere.

Dems can't take the risk of losing a Senate seat in Arizona.

Dems can't take the risk of losing a Senate seat in Arizona.

Mark Kelly and the Democratic governor of Arizona aren't on the ballot this year. Seems no matter what the seat is safe for 2025 Congress.

Both Harris and Trump need to face mainstream broadcast media, ABC, FOX etc, without minders, without, sight of/to content, sit down live and be challenged on policy past present future.

The US electorate deserve/demand to be fully aware before November the 5th.

At least 2/3 more one on one debates, Infront of a live studio audience.

No ducking dodging diving or reading off teleprompter scripts

GOP accuses Harris of ‘hiding’ from press. Most Dems don’t care — for now

Why? It's not pro wrestling.

Bottom line: Trump can't debate Harris unless he has his cult followers there feeding his fragile ego with whoops and chants, and boos to Harris.

What a chicken.

Also, looking forward to any of these veep candidates debating JD "Travis Bickle" Vance.

Very amusing sir, donald on the other hand thought there were airports during the revolutionary war, despite a teleprompter!!

Yup. There will be plenty of time for that. But priorities for Harris are picking a running mate and together honing a message for America.

The US electorate deserve/demand to be fully aware before November the 5th.

Agreed. Trump needs to man up and do the debate like he agreed.

At least 2/3 more one on one debates, In front of a live studio audience.

I disagree. Not that a live audience is a bad thing, but Trump has been known to pack such audiences to make as much noise as possible to make it seem like he is popular.

Let the facts stand on their own.

In no way does Harris need a teleprompter. And the rules don't allow for one. So this is just a dodge.

He will, relax, relax..

I disagree. Not that a live audience is a bad thing, but Trump has been known to pack such audiences to make as much noise as possible to make it seem like he is popular.

And Dems will use a packed audience or have moderators that will ask Gotcha personal questions which have nothing to do with the issues that people want to hear about.

no vice-presidential candidate in history has ever delivered a state that was not already considered in doubt.

kelly will have the greatest positive impact across the country. he’s untouchable.

shapiro will bring out latent antisemitism to the forefront by radical christian maga nuts with harris’ husband and shapiro being jewish.

i’m just trying to be practical because i don’t want trump to be elected. i prefer to see him in prison from the espionage charges next year when the appeals court reverses cannon and assigns a new judge.

No, it’s the historical truth. Has nothing to with what I think or feel.

I like Shapiro for the way he rips up Republicans, but after the disaster of "G-Joe" Biden, America does not need another, conceivably worse one with "G-Josh" weighed down by all his pro-Israel baggage.

If the Repubs want to salvage anything from their upcoming debacle in Nov, they need to "get real" and open their eyes now....

First - Dump Trump - the guy is going to jail in Sep, if he's not institutionalized before then. He was convicted on 34 felony counts - John Gotti was only facing 22. He's toast.

Second - Junk JD - they guy is as fake as a Trump Chinese-made $300 high top. His "cat-lady" quip is so stupid he can't ever recover from it. Why did Repubs ever think it's a good idea to pick a guy who compared his running mate to Hitler... That's really weird...

Get a stance on abortion and stick to it. Is it life begins at conception? Is it OK to kill babies until the 15th week? Vance has said no abortions even for rape and incest. Repubs are all over the place - and getting killed for it.

Stop insulting minorities and women. Even Repubs are saying knock off with the DEI slur - it turns every woman and minority off. How to you get people to vote got you when you're outright dissing them?

Start printing the Haley/Rubio banners NOW....time's a wastin'...

I mention all the above because I know the Repubs are too weird and the MAGA cult too blinded that they'll never do any of these...thank goodness...

It doesn't matter whether Trump actually is scared. The fact is he looks weak for being unwilling to vote Kamala, on the same terms he was willing to debate Biden.

The only thing that changed was old white man to younger black woman. Nothing else. It's pretty easy for everyone to infer why he suddenly has decided he doesn't want to follow through with his previous agreement.

Hope Harris doesn’t choose a VP who thinks the UK will be the first nuclear-armed Islamist country.

Just not serious. Would be laughed at with anyone with functioning brain cells.

Must do better.

Also choose someone who wouldn’t be a menace to the beautiful furniture n the Oval Office.

Basic stuff.

Underworld,

I can fully grasp the strategic importance Harris team taking every waking moment to select a running mate capable, able to mollify the body politic,

Ease the strain away from subjecting Harris to the unforgiving spotlight akin to a pack hound media mentality, chomping at the bit for a Harris wayward word salad.

Also for the non Americans here the comments from the left are oddly and very specifically aligned with the Democrat narratives of the day.

im not sure why it would be necessary be so informed and involved in every name, slogan, buzzword and narrative of political campaigning in a country that isn’t even yours.

N. KnightToday  09:56 am JST “ British / registered Republican. Will be voting for Harris in Nov. Anything to keep the felon, rapist, and Putin/Xi's puppet out of office. “

I prefer a President who knows how to deal with Putin, Xi and Kim. People forget this: “ North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States—they will be met with fire, fury and frankly power the likes of which this world has never seen before. “—this is the kind of language they understand; Trump is tough but he also has an open mind—in foreign policy, that’s a powerful combination. Last time I checked, nobody wants another WW.

-6 ( +1 / -7 )

I think I've figured out the MAGA rationale for insulting women and minorities with the DEI slur - they think women and minorities like being insulted. Because in MAGA-world, the more you insult Trump, the more he loves you…

Just look at Lindsey Graham - he called him a “race-baiting religious bigot”...now a golf buddy...

Ted Cruz called him a “sniveling coward”...now a MAL dinner guest...

Steve Bannon called him “just another scumbag”...Trump gave him a pardon...

But those pale compared to his running mate JD Vance comparing him to “Hitler” and calling Trump a “demagogue and a reprehensible human being”...

So the more you insult Trump, the more he loves you.  Which finally explains why he cares so much for Melania…

And after his disastrous week, tomorrow JD is going to say "Trump makes Castro and Stalin look like Mother Theresa"... Trump will love him even more...

Nothing "weird" about that...

The 'Wakanda' stuff is truly weird.

Every word salad and lie that comes from her mouth is weird.

All of her potential VP picks are weird.

Her policies are frighteningly weird.

Sticks like a Japanese school room slipper on a hot summer's day.

well Trump specifically agreed to debate Joe Biden on the 10th, so he’s not free that day.

Kamala was running around demanding she have a VP debate, she can do that one on the 10th?

all her own VP choices have huge red flags.

Not at all, but the agreed date is the 10th and on ABC. If Trump can man up and do that debate, I’m sure Kamala will agree to many others.

well Trump specifically agreed to debate Joe Biden on the 10th, so he’s not free that day. 

Actually, Joe Biden’s name is nowhere in the agreement. It just says the Democratic nominee.

In America the prosecutor decides to seek jail time or not.

Kamala knew these Black men had Black families. Yet still filed charges with jail time attached when convicted.

For minor crimes that don’t require jail. It was her choice to destroy Black families.

just like she knew Willie Brown had a Black family.

It won't be difficult for Harris to select a VP who's miles ahead of JD Vance. Trump has already had doubts about his selection.

Good luck with that one. Lol

A lot being made of the ‘weird’ thing.

A lot of Trump’s statements are the ramblings of a senile old man. I don’t know if that is ‘weird’. Senility is sadly commonplace among the elderly.

The Hannibal Lector stuff is ‘weird’ though. A fictional serial killer and cannibal is a weird thing to be referencing for a politician.

Vance is a disaster in terms of favourability. Whether that’s due to being ‘weird’ is worth discussing.

Red? You mean Team Red is already turning on JD....

“I would assume he’s not real happy,” one Republican senator said of how Trump is handling the barrage of negative publicity that’s hit his running mate over the past 10 days.

“I don’t think Trump likes any discomfort and JD’s struggling. I would assume he’s not real happy,” they added.

"Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) tried to talk Trump out of picking Vance while aboard Trump’s plane en route to the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, according to The Washington Post. Graham argued Rubio would pick up more swing votes in battleground states."

Ask the SFPD what they think of Kamala, I’m sure she doesn’t want to hear their public opinions about her.

The Trumpian Overton Window was blown outta long time ago.

Red baiting only works when the other side are not really leftists and waste time denying it and proving their capitalist bonafides.

Most of the posters here d are not leftist and don't need to worry about it, neither does Kamala campaigning on her or Biden's record.

So it is weird that the red-baiting persists and is used on this forum and by MAGA so illogically.

Now that’s a different story, the woman was shaped and molded for it.

Oh, can’t escape fate. The Marxists are being exposed for the one group collective thought control minions they are.

Vance was a (big) mistake. But Trump will still be the 47th President. It’s actually pretty simple—Trump just needs to focus on Kamala’s incompetence and inexperience. Can’t wait for the debate.

It’s quite shocking just how unpopular he is

I saw a poll that had him the least popular VP pick at this stage since 1972.

As you said, he’s not even popular in his own party.

On more concrete matters, can you give me a link to your claim that all Jewish voters have shifted to the right?

This is very important when doing the maths.
