7. Let's rephrase that as "Trumps vice-presidential candidate running mate."

I don't want to assume that Trump is a repeat president.

However, while it may take a bit of psychic battering and self-Houdini-like manipulation to contort one's self into a suitable candidate, what are the odds that Trump would survive to the end of 2028?

Who would want to be VP--a job with virtual no responsibilities and duties? Except casting the deciding vote at times in a divided Senate and maybe changing offices and housing mid-term if something happens to the current Oval Office occupant?

It's the kind of question that sort of answers itself, if you like power, notoriety, and maybe the shot at becoming "The Decider." Or the new "Dark Brandon."
