Many people kept asking for an opinion on possibilities for a Trump VP, and/or discussion about a potential Trump VP. We’ve been very reluctant to even engage on the topic; and I still am. There is an almost exponential myriad of qualifications and needs given the current status of the presidential contest.

Candidate Donald Trump has mentioned he would prefer to bring on a partner who is familiar with legislative constructs and pathways. With little to go on, and accepting the choice will be intensely vetted by Donald Trump, here’s a gut sense about the “type of person” who might be considered. Each has pros and cons:

◊ Current U.S. Senator Jeff Sessions (AL)

♦ Former U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (SC)

◊ Current U.S. Representative Martha McSally (AZ)

◊ Current U.S. Representative Jim Jordan (OH)

♦ Current U.S. Representative Jackie Walorski (IN)

◊ Former U.S. Senator Scott Brown (MA now NH)

◊ Current U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (FL)

◊ Current U.S. Governor Susana Martinez (NM)

◊ Former U.S. Representative Col Allen West (FL)

◊ Current U.S. Senator Tim Scott (SC)

◊ Current U.S. Governor Scott Walker (WI)

◊ Current U.S. Senator Rand Paul (KY)

◊ Current U.S. Senator Mike Lee (UT)

◊ Current U.S. Governor Matt Bevin (KY)

◊ Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich (GA)

◊ Current U.S. Governor Chris Christie (NJ)

This is not meant to be an all inclusive list, just a list of possibilities. You probably have a list of your own, or a preferred favorite.
