But Trump’s VP nominee is “one of the best things he ever did for Democrats,” the senator said

Donald Trump may be regretting his choice of running-mate and wondering “Why did I pick this guy?” according to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. Over the past few weeks since Trump announced his decision, the narrative that Sen. J.D. Vance is “weird” has gained traction, and Schumer speculated that may have the former president considering replacing him.

“Every day, it comes out Vance has done something more extreme, more weird, more erratic,” Schumer said. “Vance seems to be more weird and erratic than President Trump, and I’ll bet President Trump is sitting there, scratching his head, and wondering, ‘Why did I pick this guy?’

    Man, the amount of heads buried in the sand on this is egregious. He picked him for one reason and one reason only. If he wins Vance will play ball in 28 when they suspend elections. No one in Trump’s campaign cares about his weird emails, his couch, or his brown family. He has one job and he is morally flexible enough to break his oath of office to do it.

      Yeah, but if Vance costs Trump the election none of that comes into play. Trump needs to get back into the oval office to have the option of destroying democracy once and for all.

        They have been planning for that since Jan 7th, 2021. This isn’t some fly-by-night if I win thing, this will be a well-planned coup attempt. I hope I am wrong but they are openly insinuating as to what their plans are.

        Edit: changes 2020 to 2021 Thank you Samus12345 for pointing out the mistake.

    I still think he only picked him because for decades the “JD Power Rankings” were a huge deal.

    So trump associates JD Vance with being powerful, even if he couldn’t remember why
