Former President Donald Trump is looking for a running mate and says many are “begging” him to be on his ticket.
I never voted for Trump, though I wrote to him directly at The White House as I did to every president since Bill Clinton beginning 1996 after I became a US permanent resident and later a naturalized citizen in 2002, as I later read somewhere George Washington wanted citizens to do: write a letter.
Hypothetically, if Trump were to call me and ask me to register Republican and be on his ticket:
1. Of course, I did not beg him to be on the ticket. If this is the tone he wants to take, a tone with which I did not put up even with the Federal Reserve Board or any number of senior executives I worked for in my career in the private sector, on any given day I would clean out my desk and resign.
I wanted Tony Fauci of HHS to do the same during COVID. Trump lost in 2020, fair and square, because he mishandled COVID politically.
2. I would still not register with either political party and take my cue from George Washington on partisanship.
3. Obviously, as an immigrant I would not be eligible for the White House because I am not natural born and cannot constitutionally step in for the President, even if it is only temporary.
The election, if held today, is a close tie between Biden and Trump within statistical margin of error, and could be a repeat of 2020.
Biden, said if he loses, unlike Trump in 2020, he will concede and peacefully transfer power.
This is an attaboy for Biden and the Democrats, and makes me, one independent among 50% of the American electorate, want to vote for him again as I did in 2020.
Donald Trump has not said anything about what he would do if he were to lose again to Biden in 2024.
For Trump to make me want to vote for him, the same litmus test which Biden passed applies to Trump.
Is Trump going to peacefully concede the election or call for “bedlam” as he did after 2020?
I think its safe to say that Biden is full-on MAGA, the way he is handing the election to Trump on a silver platter
