Not saying it will happen but, do you think a Trump/Rice ticket would deliver a knock out blow to the liberals ??...
Thoughts ?? on a Trump / Condoleezza Rice ticket...

Thoughts? I'm thinking passport, visa, or perhaps suicide.
Condi is too smart for that.
Should stick to the reality TV realm and go with one of the women off Shark Tank or Mark Cuban.
Condi won't get within a million miles of Trump much less be his VP. She's brilliant, well-spoken and even keeled.....basically everything Trump isn't. She would overshadow him in every positive way and that fact alone would drive Trump crazy.
Random info on Cuban. Chris Sacca, billionaire, shark tank guy, and Cuban friend believes Cuban will run for president in 2024.
I think she is fantastic and wish she was the GOP candidate . She would have been the perfect choice for McCain actually . Unfortunately her persona would would not be compatible with Trump . A VP must constantly support and explain the actions of the POTUS. She would be unable to do that even a minimum amount but even that would not work . Her world view and his are ....different .
Rice would essentially ruin every advantage she has for herself and the GOP if she aligns with Trump.
Do Repubs think Condi will chip away at the Hillary vote? LOL. Hillary is running on a famous surname. Condi can't get that because just because she's female. IMO, Trump is better off getting one of the Bush daughters to run with him.
1st Rice is way to smart to pursue a shot at the White House.
2nd she would be a great partner for Trump. She would obviously reel in the smart, educated women and minority vote. However, she would not appeal to the unemployed, welfare, lazy, entitled crowd the Libs and Hillary attract. Scary part is that is a large portion of the voting percentage these days.

Condi would be a good choice if she wasn't so closely associated with George W. Bush and the Iraq war.
Most non-liberals do not blame her for the Iraq War since Colin Powell was Sec of State at the beginning of the Iraq War. Rice didn't come in until 2005.
If I am Trump, I do not align with anyone that has been connected to Bush in any significant way. Trump is an an outsider and needs to bring an outsider VP wth him. I nominate Ivanka or Bill Rancic for VP....LOL!!
True. However she was a big part of the public lead up to the invasion, and I believe made a now infamous statement about a mushroom cloud. She then became Secretary of State during Bush's second term when the war really became a mess and Bush became terribly unpopular. I think the Clinton machine would have the wherewithal to make that connection with swing voters who are still sour on Bush.
Even though it's been 8 years, I think Trump would still be wise to distance himself from anything associated with GWB.
He isn't an outsider. He's literally been buying political influence for 3 decades, BY HIS OWN ADMISSION. He's the ultimate insider. He is literally the personification of "special interest."
From the context of politics he is a definite outsider in my opinion. Heavily disagree with you on this. If he was an insider, the republican leadership would not be trying to stop him the way they have.
I think they've tried to stop him for two reasons. 1) He has primarily bought the political influence of liberal politicians, and 2) He is a moron and a narcissist who literally inherited too much money to go broke. We can agree to disagree, but a Trump presidency would be a devastating blow to the U.S. and, by extension, the world.
