Stirring the pot
Time for a shake up in the Trump camp.
Help Wanted: Trump’s Apprentice: Donald Trump has said he will reveal his choice for a running mate at next month’s Republican convention. “He needs some stability. He needs some class. He needs somebody that people trust,” said Stu Spencer, a longtime GOP campaign strategist. “Anybody of that caliber who attaches themselves to Trump is insane.” Are they? And who will it be? Take a closer look at the unusual hunt to fill a position that, even under usual circumstances, can be seen as a thankless task.It is a bit like watching a slow motion train wreck.
Maybe Trumpf is finding that there are some things money cannot buy. Integrity?
In any case he is a one man band and continued demonstration can only suggest that his "team" by which he probably means "minions" will be full bore surrogates and errand boys and girls for the presumptive nominee.
I have read the stories about the various prospects for the job of Trump-running mate.
I do not notice a stampede toward his attention. In fact, many have said that they are not available. Sometimes clouded with obvious fake excuses but many with a frank "you must be kidding". Professional politicians do not commit suicide. Trumpf of course, is not a professional politician. A blowhard and egoist he has the job of being his most ardent fan club member.
