Former President Donald Trump suggested Tuesday that at least half a dozen names are on his vice presidential shortlist — a list ranging from South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard.

During a Fox News town hall event, host Laura Ingraham asked Trump about six possible choices for his running mate: DeSantis, Scott, biotech entrepreneur and former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, Florida Rep. Byron Donalds, South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and Gabbard.

I hope it's Vivek considering how thoroughly unlikable he is, but I'll take "DeSanctimonious" if for no other reason than to regularly point out how much time Trump spent belittling DeSantis in every way he could think of.

DeSantis clearly has a shame/degradation kink if he gets and accepts the VP position.

True, but he also can't run in Florida again so I could see it.

Well, unless they change the state constitution to remove the term limits. That would require 60% of Floridans to vote to change the state constitution, but they banned gay marriage in the state constitution over a decade ago so there's always been at least 60% of Floridans being hateful shits.
