I thought about that, but Trump is very healthy. Even with a new ear piercing.
Do you really believe that? He's fat, out of shape, and has a well-known terrible junk food diet. He doesn't drink, so that's good, but he looks pretty rough for someone who doesn't drink.

yeah he's 78 years old, overweight, and is addicted to McDonalds and Diet Coke. I doubt his health is great.

this. Pence is a despicable human being who hates gay people for no reason other than the fact that he may just be a repressed self-hating homosexual that is projecting- but he at least has convictions.

JD Vance was a "Never Trumper" who hated Trump a few years ago. Now he loves him? Kind seems like your typical run of the mill slimy politician with no morals or convictions that just goes whatever way the wind is blowing.

I was just reading on ABC News how Vance and his friends explained that the way the media and the Democrats treated Trump while he was in office is what began to change his mind. 

That aligns with what you have been saying for years.

Well, he can take a bullet and jump right back up so there is that. Lol

I’m not sure what qualifies an overweight 78-year-old as healthy. Like, there was reporting about him getting some amount of daily exercise or something, sure. But it doesn’t totally seem that way.

granted, folks ascribe a lot to him that doesn’t seem to really be there, but that’s life I suppose

Its amazing that almost everyone here doesnt want Trump but complains strongly about the running mate he chose and how he could have chosen better.

They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

Ha!  Did you think there was a potential candidate that would be praised?    You’re not paying attention then.

It’s politics.  It is all about spin.  The MSM is already in high gear working to paint Vance as “ extreme.”  ( which is actually humorous when you sit back and see how extreme they are)

They will start of slow - because of the assignation attempt- but soon- a few days maybe- we will see that same language being used.  “ threat to democracy”.  “ he needs to be in the bullseye” “ he must be stopped”.  “ he is a dictator”.  “Hitler”. 

And on it goes…. Politics in America.  ( and we wonder why people get shot)

Yeah, that isn't an anti-Trump take.  Biden is clearly less coherent, and may live the next 20 years peacefully in a retirement home, but I have zero confidence in an 80 year old with Trump's diet being even mildly healthy.  Granted the owner of the steakhouse I worked at in high school/college was in his 80s, came in every day with his WWII buddies, ate steak, drank bourbon and smoked cigars while they played poker.  I think he died at 93, so who knows.  Richard Simmons jazzercised every day and died younger than either of them

There is a difference between changing who you are voting for, and smart politics.  That said, it seems to me like either Kamala or Vance will be President 4 years from now

Yeah, I'm not saying that Trump's poor health means he's not going to live to 100. If only the good die young, he might even make it to 110.
