    He was chosen because Theil literally walked into Maralago with Vance, and had a private meeting with Trump, and when it was over, Vance was the VP choice.

    Of course, Theil and Trump know how the game is played at that level, so something of value changed hands, even if we’ll never know what it was, although Theil has donated a LOT of money to MAGA.

      Yeah but prez would have had a lot of powerful people pushing their tools onto him for vp, he chose vance because both thiel, but also because vance was an unlikeable bitch. He wouldn’t have been chosen if not for both reasons.

      Vance will lose in a primary.

        Sure, it’s a classic Cult of Personality, so you can’t have a strong #2. That’s why he likes to play Vance and Rubio against each other. So nobody, including them or us, knows who his favorite boy is.
