President Trump Doesn’t Rule Out Dr. Ben Carson as Possible VP Pick

 

President Trump gave a list of his four possible Vice President picks during a recent campaign stop in the Bronx.

In an interview with News 12 New York, Trump said, “You could take people like Ben Carson, Marco Rubio, or J.D. Vance. I mean, there’s so many. Elise is doing a fantastic job.”

“I could go on for quite a long time. We have many people who would do a really fantastic job.” added Trump.

In recent weeks, conservative news pundits have speculated that Trump might choose Marco Rubio, J.D. Vance, Tim Scott, or Elise Stefanik as his possible VP picks.

Trump’s latest statement shows that former HUD Secretary Ben Carson also has a chance to be selected.

Per The Washington Examiner:

At a campaign stop in the New York borough of the Bronx, former President Donald Trump named some of his possible vice presidential picks, a sign the list may be shortening.

In an interview with News 12 New York, Trump singled out Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Dr. Ben Carson, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) as top options on a list that has continued to grow.

“We have so many,” Trump said when asked about his picks for vice president. “You could take people like Ben Carson, people like Marco Rubio, or J.D. Vance. I mean, there’s so many. Elise is doing a fantastic job, but I could go on for quite a long time. We have many people who would do a really fantastic job.”

When asked about the timeline, Trump said he would make a decision “sometime during the convention,” which is when presidential nominees typically announce their vice president. Trump has floated all of these names as picks for various reasons.

Ben Carson As Trump’s VP Pick Would Be A Solid Choice.

He Doesn’t Need Charisma Like Trump Because Trump Has Enough For Both Of Them.

Ben Carson, who became a household name after being the first neurosurgeon to separate conjoined twins, ran for President in 2016 but later suspended his campaign and endorsed Trump.

In the first nine months of 2015, Carson outraised all the Republican presidential nominees, including Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, and Donald Trump.

Trump Roasts Libertarians at Their Own Convention After They Start Booing Him: ‘Enjoy Your 3% Every Four Years!’ (VIDEO)

Trump Roasts Libertarians at Their Own Convention After They Start Booing Him: ‘Enjoy Your 3% Every Four Years!’ (VIDEO)

 Trump roasted the dissenting members of the Libertarian Party during their convention after they booed him.

On Saturday, President Donald Trump delivered a fiery speech that courted the Libertarian audience.

Addressing a crowd of Libertarian attendees, Trump took a firm stance on his administration’s record compared to that of Joe Biden.

“Unlike Joe Biden, I don’t throw people in jail for disagreeing with me. I don’t do that!” Trump said, positioning himself as a protector of free speech and personal liberties.

In an attempt to bridge gaps within the broader conservative movement, Trump extended an olive branch to the Libertarian community.

He pledged significant inclusion of Libertarians in his potential future administration, stating, “I am committing to you tonight that I will put a Libertarian in my cabinet and also Libertarians in senior posts.”

Trump’s speech at the libertarian convention is strong and powerful.

He came out strong against the Central Bank Digital Currency.

Against unnecessary wars.

Against high taxes.

For pro-growth, light-touch regulatory reforms.

Libertarians everywhere should watch and listen.

The highlight of the evening came when Trump promised to commute the sentence of Ross Ulbricht, the founder of Silk Road, who has become something of a cause célèbre among Libertarians and advocates for privacy and reduced government interference.

“He’s already served 11 years; we’re gonna get him home,” Trump announced; the crowd of Libertarians roared with applause and started to chant “Ross.”

Despite his efforts to unify, not all attendees were swayed by Trump’s presence or proposals. A vocal segment of the crowd expressed their disapproval through boos and unruly behavior.

The president has had enough and said what needed to be said to the Libertarian Party.

“The Libertarian Party should nominate Trump for the President of the United States,” Trump announced.

“Only if you want to win. Maybe you don’t want to win,” he said. “Keep getting your 3% every four years.”

WATCH:

HOLY SMOKES!!! Trump just went off on Libertarians, telling them to nominate him as their Presidential nominee or keep “getting their 3% every four years

On Sunday, the Libertarian Party chose 38-year-old Chase Oliver as its 2024 presidential nominee.

An openly gay former Democrat who once supported Barack Obama, Oliver used his victory speech to rail against the U.S. “war machine” and demand an end to the “genocide in Gaza,” according to the Washington Examiner.

The Libertarians just nominated Chase Oliver, who has PUBLICLY called for:

Transing children
Mask & Vax mandates
Men in women’s sports
Open borders

And that’s just what he’s been calling for under Biden

What a joke. This guy’s not getting anywhere CLOSE to 3% pic.twitter.com/Xa5fELQc32

The libertarians literally nominated a pro-choice, homosexual, open borders, repeat loser as their candidate their 3% just dropped to 1%. Libertarians who aren’t addicted to losing should vote TRUMP if they want to win.

Independent presidential hopeful Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was eliminated from the Libertarian Party’s nomination during the initial round of voting on Sunday, garnering just 2.07% of the vote. Trump, who was a write-in candidate, received only 0.66% of the votes.

In a Truth Social post, Trump wrote, “The reason I didn’t file paperwork for the Libertarian Nomination, which I would have absolutely gotten if I wanted it (as everyone could tell by the enthusiasm of the Crowd last night!), was the fact that, as the Republican Nominee, I am not allowed to have the Nomination of another Party. Regardless, I believe I will get a Majority of the Libertarian Votes.”

He continued, “Junior’ Kennedy is a Radical Left Democrat, who’s destroyed everything he’s touched, especially in New York and New England, and in particular, as it relates to the Cost and Practicality of Energy. He’s not a Libertarian. Only a FOOL would vote for him!”

Happy Memorial Day 2024 – Today More Than Ever Americans Are Under Threat of Losing Our Freedom

Happy Memorial Day 2024 – Today More Than Ever Americans Are Under Threat of Losing Our Freedom

 US soldiers celebrate victory on Iwo Jima in World War II

Happy Memorial Day 2024!

Today, more than at any other time in US history, we are in jeopardy of losing our country.
We have an Democrat administration that is:
** Persecuting the leading opposition candidate and former president with numerous lawfare cases
** Jailing Christian pro-lifers who sing hymns outside an abortion clinic
** Censored opposing voices like The Gateway Pundit who were speaking the truth – we are fighting back!
** Jailing Trump supporters for years without trial in dangerous prisons
** Jailing Trump supporters for allegedly disrupting Congress while leftist radicals are allowed to disrupt Congress on a weekly basis.

America today is under threat of a Marxist takeover!

Let us always remember – in the words of Ronald Reagan – “Freedom isn’t free and America is the last stand on Earth.”

Those words are more important today than any time in recent history.

A Time for Choosing speech Oct 27, 1964

This amazing photo below was taken 103 years ago in 1918.

It is a photo of 18,000 men preparing for war during World War I at Camp Dodge in Des Moines, Iowa…
A gift from our grandfathers:

“I Fought for You”

Thank you – to all who have served with this great nation.
Thank you – for your sacrifice.

May God Bless America.

You can thank their Marxist professors.

What a disgusting, disrespectful bunch.
