It will not happen.

There is a reason why.

This is interesting.

"We’re both from the same state, so that’s probably not going to work that way,” Rubio said when he was asked about joining a Trump ticket on Fox News in January.

Since he surely knows this can be gotten around (Trump just "moves" to Bedminster e.g.) I wonder if this means he's not interested that will be his excuse.

It ends Rubio's career because he'll never get that Senate seat back if he leaves it and if Trump loses with him on the ticket then Rubio will get blamed and lose the next primary.

It's possible they need a software update for Rubiobot to know about that.

This would be one of the most boneheaded moves Trump could possibly make, and expand his appeal exactly 0%. So naturally, I expect it to happen.

The Biden campaign spending on FL makes sense if that’s the case. If Trump is disqualified, Biden has an outside chance at winning the state.

Will Rubio then make an official statement, telling us that he was mistaken about the size of trump's hands?

Well, that and the 12th amendment I suppose.

Marcuck Rubio?

I guess he's a harmless enough choice.

He needs to dispel with that fiction.

He would be awful for State. Too hawkish.

Seems rather redundant. What about JD Vance?

Rubio would likely be seen more favourably than Harris (fairly or not) and of course the Veep choices matter in this election more than is usual.

A Harris/Rubio debate would certainly be delicious.

Considering Congress now operates with people not required to be residents in their district or state of who they're representing until the day they take office, one of Trump or Rubio just need to change primary residence before mid-December.

Anyone that has an issue with that, produce a constitutional amendment requiring minimum residency times.

Why would Trump pick silly Lil' Marco? I guess because of his submissive qualities.
