>On Thursday, the Wall Street Journal’s Laura Meckler and Colleen McCain Nelson broke the news that Hillary Clinton is vetting Elizabeth Warren for the vice presidency — but not vetting Bernie Sanders. In the process, they provided a shortlist of candidates that Clinton is considering:
>Beyond the Massachusetts senator, other prospective candidates include Labor Secretary Tom Perez; Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro; Sens. Tim Kaine of Virginia, Sherrod Brown of Ohio and Cory Booker of New Jersey; Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, and Reps. Xavier Becerra of California and Tim Ryan of Ohio, several Democrats said.
I put most of my odds on Warren, she's the only one who may keep some of the Bernouts. Sure the hardline actual Berniebros won't give a fuck and see her as a traitor, but those just riding the progressive meme train will look up to Clinton now.
That said it will make Clinton look like she's doubling down on the woman card and Warren has plenty of her own baggage. Also she'll get slaughtered in a VP debate against anyone who is half competent.
Castro again would just look like pandering, and I think many Americans would be turned off by his name alone and think he's the long lost baby brother of Fidel.
Christian Hughes
I hope she picks Elizabeth Warren, just so Trump gets more hilarious banter material.
Brody Jones
>Americans would be turned off by his name alone and think he's the long lost baby brother of Fidel.
If Barack Hussein Obama didn't do that then I doubt Castro will.
Grayson Williams

As awesome as that would be, I do not see it happening. Trump probably will not pick Newt for VP. A cabinet spot is far more likely.
Tyler Parker
>Newt Gingrich globalist shill
Oliver Edwards
Dear god. That's a meme face if I have ever seen one.
Henry Nguyen
Probably Cory Booker.
I'm a NJ Republican and I respect him because he was a good Mayor of Newark. Newark isn't a dangeorus ghetto anymore, it has been upgraded into a sad ghetto. Much better in many ways.
Joseph Reed
spotted the 18 year olds that have no idea who newt is he's an establishment slime that got on trump's good side solely because he always wants to be with the winner
he's one of the reasons we fucking have NAFTA
Colton Reyes
I hope he involves him somehow. I may not agree with him on everything but he is a very gifted politician.
Josiah Nelson
The bantering is why Bernie Bros are now turning on Warren. She's spending too much time shit talking Trump and not talking about pie in the sky crap she's going to make Hillary do in order to win Bernie Bro votes
Josiah Gomez

Owen Harris
anyone from a solid blue state is out.
white males from swing states are out
women are out
so you have just the hispanic males in national positions.
Daniel Murphy
why can bernie be VP?
David Garcia
If she picks Warren there's a decent chance she loses because a lot of men are unlikely to vote for two women
David Robinson
Thanks Putin! Also death to RIDF.
Zachary Bennett
I hope she picks him so we can meme the shit out of him. Fucker looks like tingle from Zelda
Luke Fisher
hispanic vote is worthless, idk when anyone is going to get this through their head
You have to win states, not the national vote. Hispanics live overwhelmingly in states where the outcome is already decided. It's why Trump is doing so well because most swing states are either white-dominated(ohio, PA, etc) or Florida where it's Cuban(which is an entirely different voting bloc from regular hispanics)
Thomas Flores
Warren want anti Hillary until she got bribed, many bernie ppl see that now

She can pander to not one, but two, minority groups. Amazing. On the other hand, if she chooses Warren she can appeal to Native Americans and feminist dykes. Hmph.
Ian Jones
I hope they pick Warren too. The Dems are actually falling for Trump's bait and thinking she would be a good ruining mate.
Almost nobody would vote for two shrill old white woman
Jace Phillips
That was different, Hussein wasn't his last name and the Republicans were bitterly opposed after the Bush era and anything sounded better than a crusty white guy.
I hope she does pick Castro; there is no way this egg head could do anything to harm Trump, his VP in a debate, or his campaign.
Anthony Lewis
I don't care that they are old or women. They both suck and neither of them should be anywhere near any position of power.
Henry Evans
Warren totally fucked herself by endorsing Hillary so vigorously. All her crusading against banks and wall street was instantly unmasked as bullshit. When Hillary goes down to the emails, all these wretched fucks are going down with her.
Camden Myers
her vagina came far before her principles women don't even realize how repugnant this shit is to men
Jaxson Robinson
They overtly hate each other though and it's so random that they'd even consider Castro that it seems like it's a likely happening. More likely though she'll aim for one of the swing state folks, hence why there's so many Ohio people being vetted. (Fuck Castro if he's chosen, the man is responsible for ruining neighborhoods left and right in his secretary role as he's pumped out section 8 housing and minority quotas as he continues to ignore how devastating they are toward house prices and public safety)
Christopher Robinson
Yeah if Bernie weren't old as fuck he could have probably been bribed by Hillary too.
For Warren it will be really transparent that she's abandoned her principals to gain a position of authority. Hell people on reddit started throwing verbal stones at her for simply endorsing Clinton over Bernie.
Hunter Miller
You're typing on a fucking device made in East Asia in a third-world sweatshop. The only reason you didn't have to pay double the price for it is free trade, you miserable fucktard.

Connor Anderson

Caleb Lopez
She should pick Ted Cruz for VP thus gaining the vote of the republican establishment.
Nathaniel Price
Man I voted for Warren and thought she would do good work in the Senate for financial reform and to be honest, she has. When she voted against auditing the Fed on party lines I started to get skeptical, and now cozying up with Hillary has turned me off her completely. What a waste.
Lucas Cox
I think Warren will happen because Clinton desperately needs young voters and some energy to her campaign and she thinks Warren will bring that as she's sort of a watered down Bernie. I don't think it will ultimately work in attracting the internet accessed youth, but well Clinton has made mistakes before.
Castro might rally more latinos until they see his grotesque monster face.
Her smartest bet would be Brooker or someone from Ohio if she were actually interested in winning rather than just pandering. She needs someone who can stand to scrutiny and persuade people in the mid-Atlantic and lakes region to stay blue. I highly doubt Warren or Castro would do that, they would just make sure the NE and Cali stay blue.
Jeremiah Kelly
holy fucking shit.
Caleb Peterson
Nazism and fascism are worse than capitalism

Nathan Morris
If the government subsidized the production of rare earth elements in the USA. To protect the mines and smelters from China's manipulation of the market. Then we could make consumer electronics in the USA for only $10 more per unit.
Ryan Sanchez
Ah, the trump is a nazi meme. Got it.
Nolan Morgan
>Leaked They are just doing this to see who gets the most traction.
Joshua Barnes
I really hope it's Crooked Hillary and Pocahontas versus The God Emperor and Chris Crispy
Crispy would bully the soft-spoken Pocahontas in a VP debate, Crooked Hillary will have a seizure and collapse on stage as soon as she feels Trump's firm handshake on the debate stage. It would be an easy victory the Donald.
Crazy Bernie would've been hilarious as well
Nolan Long
woman/woman would turn off some people, especially Warren, especially with Hillary's questionable health But only if Trump gets his shit together and stops fucking up
Ryan Reed

Travel back in time to Soviet Russia, then. Everyone was employed, nothing was imported. A true Trumpian paradise.
If you want to educate yourself, watch this lecture by Milton (((Friedman))).

Trumptard logic!
Thomas Adams
Selecting a female VP is a bold move and intuitively you want to say "it will never work" but it could. There are plenty of effeminate cucks out there that would jump right on that. Because they're cucks.

Joseph Garcia
She would be a good ruining mate. Ruins da Hilldawg's chances and the country if she wins.
Hudson Davis
Nothing but bad choices.
Kaine, Garcetti, Perez, Ryan, Booker, and Brown are all huge establishment Democrats, which will hurt Clinton with Sanders supporters and Independents.
Warren doubles down on the MUH WOMYN card but will alienate a lot of male voters
Castro and Becerra will be seen as just blatant pandering, which won't win over Hispanic voters who aren't already firmly in Clinton's camp. Castro, especially, is a terrible choice. A lot of people in Whiter, working class states are fucking mad as hell about the policies Castro's imposed as head of HUD - exporting inner city crime to rural towns by threatening Title VII lawsuits against low-income housing programs in predominantly White counties. Iowa for sure will go Red if Castro's the VP.
Most importantly, if Trump ends up picking someone like Sessions, Webb, or Mattis for VP then any of these people are going to be absolutely fucking DESTROYED in a VP debate.
Justin Rodriguez
you only need to subsidize while the rare earth production is starting and buyers start appearing. to keep China from dump their stockpiles on the market and running the mines and smelters out of business through low prices.
once american production of rare earth has a solid customer base. you will the subsidy dollars back and then some, from the increased economic activity and exports.
Lucas Perez
Did you see what they look like?
They are whiter than the average immigrant we get anyway
David Baker
it'll backfire. it'll look like over pandering.
Juan Campbell
I'm using the Soviet Union to show how fallacious your argument is. When you employ people to do work that a foreigner can do better, you're wasting money. Employment is only desirable when the labor is productive and efficient.
Luis Torres
>>but not vetting Bernie Sanders.
Anyone except Socialist Sanders would be better suited for the job. He only cares about getting donations. He never cared about winning.
Owen Mitchell
Webb is almost impossible as a VP choice at this point though I think it would basically secure Trump the presidency. Webb also isn't too solid at debates but most of Clinton's choices would be weak as shit at debates.
Sessions would tear everyone one of them a new asshole.
Mattis could go either way, I have no idea how good he'd be at a debate. He could either be more radical than Trump and make Trump seem more bloodthirsty or he could add seriousness to the Trump camp that he seems to need (in the minds of Independents at least) and secure his foreign policy image.
William Cruz

Easton Hughes
Webb is the perfect choice for Trump.
Republicans respect Webb for his military service, pro gun stance.
swing voters will see Webb as a moderating force for the Trump administration. a right leaning democrat with senate and executive government experience. Webb is also anti war.
Jace Taylor
Falklands are English, Argy scum.

Sander's expected and achieved goal was to move the party Left from the position that the Clintons and Obama put it in.
Henry Sullivan
Yeah, he's not likely, but I can still dream.
Right now I'm on the fence about whether to support Trump or just abstain in the election. I think he's a fucking gigantic asshole, but am willing to admit he's right on quite a few issues.
If Trump picks Webb (who I originally supported in the Democratic race) or Clinton picks Castro, I'll hop on board the Trump Train in a heartbeat.

Would Webb agree to Trump's immigration policy though? What about his stances on gun control? What exactly drew him to the Democratic side? I knew he used to be a Republican.
I like the idea in theory, but I could see many hidden confounds lying in the wings.
Jaxson White

Blake Bennett
>Newt Gingrich
Naw, Trump is picking Jan Brewer as his VP. Calling it.
Ryan Sullivan
Webb is from Virginia, a swing state.
He probably became a democrat because it was the best way to be a Senator.
Webb believes in the second amendment and the use of lethal force to defend your self.
Webb would say the laws must be enforced. If the people want the illegals to stay. Then the law must be changed. Though the border must still be secured to stop cartels trafficking drugs, money, and weapons.
Jack Campbell
Castro is a fag spic who literally is destroying middle class Americans RIGHT NOW by massively accelerating section 8 and low income building in the last few months of Obamas reign
The are moving hundreds of thousands of ghetto nigs into nice middle class areas in order to wreck those areas and as an attempt to gerrymander for congressional districts by moving D voting nogs into taxpayers towns
Jack Williams
They're obviously going to pick a spic.
Jace Perez
I can´t hear you, speak up.
>What exactly drew him to the Democratic side? Iraq war made him anti republican apparently, thats all I know though so dont take what i say as fact.
Ian Brooks
Gingrich is a VERY dangerous man.
Trump was wise to turn down the $200 million they offered his campaign to pick newt as his VP. (It would've been Regan getting shot so Bush Sr. could become POTUS... only this time they'd make damn sure he got toe-tagged)
Gingrich plays a disarming role as a sort of "kooky, very smart, but harmless autist/futurist idealist."
It is 100% a role. The guy has been involved with the Tavistock group since he was a very young man.
