Sarah Huckabee Sanders 'Frontrunner' Being Considered by Ron DeSantis For VP Pick

Sarah Huckabee Sanders 'Frontrunner' Being Considered by Ron DeSantis For VP Pick
Story by Aaron Johnson • 9h ago



.....................Insiders claim that DeSantis has set his sights on the former Trump press secretary to be his VP pick after she won the race to become the state's first female governor in November, succeeding Gov. Asa Hutchinson who served in the role since 2015.

"He really only has one strong choice: Sarah," the source told RadarOnline.com exclusively. "He is desperate to lock up his running mate before he makes his formal announcement. He would announce his VP candidate very soon afterward."

"He thinks it will be a one-two punch and Republicans will be hard-pressed to look past a united front, especially if it is him and Sarah," spilled the campaign insider.

requiring Governor Sarah "Smokey-eyes" Sanders to resign as Governor to run for VP. If there is such a law, the Arkansas General Assembly would be quickly called into session to rescind it. To my surprise, the General Assembly seems terrified of Sarah and gave her everything she demanded in the recent session. I suspect that the General Assembly would jump at the faintest hope that Sarah might move back to DC.

All of that being said, I have watched Sara since her College Republican days. She is frightening. Fortunately (or maybe not), Sarah is not nearly as smart as she think. VP Harris would destroy her in a debate, if Sarah was so foolish to participate.

After 4 years of the orange clown show, we finally got a President and a VP who are decent and intelligent and don’t embarrass us on the world stage.

The thought of these two hateful, backwards, yahoos in the Oval Office just makes my stomach turn over ….

I'm being completely honest here, but they are unappealing and extremely gross, in not only what they think do and say, but aesthetically. Both are vile, racist, evil and rotten, and that Russian money's dried up, plus DeathSantis is almost as crooked and into some shady things down there in his banana republic of DeathSatinstan.

What would their slogan be? The gruesome twosome? Hither and Eva, de dux?

He won't hold back because of her years of servitude to him. Lying for him.
Its a sport to him. And, without going there myself, SHS is not exactly the Barbie bimbo look that is the only, and the highest, form of "respect" that Trump gives to any woman.

Gawd I hope the two R candidate dimwits destroy each other.

This could work out for us. No one who isn't a die-hard Republican likes either one of them, and I'm not too sure even they like them.
