(1,362 posts)1. Can Trump actually pick his own VP?
Behind Trump is a whole cadre of oligarchs, power brokers, wanna-bees, sycophants, and others who hide their loathing while fostering plans to use him. Many of them are really smart. Lots smarter than him. Theyve figured out how to influence him. Some can probably control him.
I think that Trumps VP pick will tell us a lot. If he picks someone who doesnt overshadow him we can suppose hes in charge. If the pick is someone more capable, someone like Greg Abbot, well know that others are. If its someone like Abbot, well know that they are evil indeed. And circumstances are more dire than we already suspect.

A Total and complete Failure by Merrick Garland. Just look at where we are. Could anyone have predicted this on Jan 6?
