Did he pick the JD Vance guy? Tucker Carlson would be an interesting pick...

yes

What are your thoughts on that?

I think Trump's base was going to be happy with whomever he picked, so I don't think it mattered. I think Tucker Carlson would have been a huge deal.

I feel this is pretty true. He is the main person that people want. I just feel with Carlson, he would have added even more exposure.

No doubt. Makes me wonder why he didn't pick him.

I know...that is what I was thinking. He was the one that popped out the most when I was reading that document.

I have plenty of disagreement with Tucker, but he is a really formidable speaker. I would not want to be campaigning against him.

Oh man. Imagine his debates vs. name em.

He is quick, plus he has a solid base. What does the JD guy offer?

Vance is the author of Hillbilly Eligy, which was an enormously influential book about Appalachia. He has a ton of working class credibility.
