Political Forecaster Predicts Trump as ‘Nominee’ and Who Former President Will Choose as Running Mate
Some speculate that former President Donald Trump will seek to move the political spotlight off DeSantis, who announced his bid for president on Wednesday, by circulating rumors of a vice presidential pick.
On the day that the Florida governor announced his candidacy, Richard Hanania, a noted political forecaster, suggested Trump would announce that Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina would join Trump on the ticket.
Scott, a black conservative who has supported Trump over the years, announced his candidacy earlier this week. Polls do not project that Scott would do well in a national primary, leading some to suspect the move is a maneuver to position him for a key role in the next administration.
Partnering with a black man may stifle often-voiced claims from the left that Trump is a racist.
Hanania, the president of the Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology, tweeted:
“Trump is going to be the nominee, and I predict he picks Tim Scott as his running mate. Everyone loves an inoffensive black conservative, especially swing voters. Democrats will have to walk on eggshells in critiquing him. Trump-Scott ticket will be very tough to beat.”
Hanania added: “Many conservatives have a belief that ‘Democrats are omnipotent and can do whatever they want, they create their own reality, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.’ No, they sometimes get put in tough situations. Stop treating them like god.”
Notably, following Scott’s announcement to run for president, Trump was very congratulatory, writing on his Truth Social platform:
“Good luck to Senator Tim Scott in entering the Republican Presidential Primary Race,” he wrote. “It is rapidly loading up with lots of people, and Tim is a big step up from Ron DeSanctimonious, who is totally unelectable. I got Opportunity Zones done with Tim, a big deal that has been highly successful. Good luck Tim!”
Other political pundits have suggested that Trump will select a female running mate. The 1945 website suggested the former president is likely to “stun the world” with his vice presidential pick and claimed the short list includes Georgia GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Arizona Republican Kari Lake and South Dakota GOP Gov. Kristi Noem.

Liz Cheney Reveals Lengths She Would Go To Stop Trump In 2024
Former Republican Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney said she is contemplating a third-party presidential run, warning of the dangers that would come from former President Donald Trump serving as president next year for a second term.
Speaking to the Washington Post on Monday while promoting her new book, Oath and Honor: A Memoir and a Warning, Cheney said she would not have thought about a third-party run several years ago but feels the former president’s presidential bid threatens democracy.
“I happen to think democracy is at risk at home, obviously, as a result of Donald Trump’s continued grip on the Republican Party, and I think democracy is at risk internationally as well,” Cheney said.
Cheney, once a rising star in the Republican Party before becoming one of Trump’s most outspoken GOP critics, said she would make a final decision within the next few months.
“We face threats that could be existential to the United States, and we need a candidate who is going to be able to deal with and address and confront all of those challenges,” Cheney said. “That will all be part of my calculation as we go into the early months of 2024.”
Cheney served as vice chairwoman of the House Jan. 6 committee and was one of 10 House Republicans who joined all Democrats in voting to impeach Trump for a second time following the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. She was ousted in the Wyoming primary last year by a Trump-backed challenger, now-Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY).
She has not ruled out voting for President Joe Biden if he is the 2024 Democratic nominee, telling CBS on Sunday that a Republican congressional majority with Trump in the White House would pose a threat to democracy.
Cheney, daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, has been on a string of media appearances, further fueling speculation about a presidential bid.
“I don’t even want to imagine a situation where he has won,” Cheney said on MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show. “I think we have to do everything we can to stop him in terms of, again, the kind of things we have been working on, working in a nonpartisan fashion.”
Cheney emphasized Republicans, Democrats, and independents need to “work together” and “vote together” to “make clear that Donald Trump is not an acceptable alternative.”
“He is not the lesser of two evils,” Cheney said. “He is a completely unfit man for office. He’s already shown us what he would do, and he can never be near the Oval Office again.”

Professor fired for criticizing homosexuality responds to Christian College
A college professor has filed a lawsuit against a Christian college after being fired over social media posts he made criticizing homosexuality.
Dr. Aaron Edwards was fired in March following statements he made online, ending his employment at Cliff College, located in England, that lasted for seven years. Edwards revealed Tuesday that he has enlisted the help of Christian Legal Centre to support his case against the school, according to Fox News Digital.
“I think many Christians have not been willing to say things that will offend people,” he said. “The British people especially find it hard to offend people in ways that other cultures don’t because they’re more willing to say, ‘This is what I believe, and you need to kind of get over it. And I’m free to say that.’ I think in Britain for many years, we’ve tolerated a kind of self-silencing.”
Edwards had claimed on Feb. 19 that homosexuality was “invading the Church” and that many Christians no longer saw “the severity” that such an invasion posed. The statement caused major pushback among LGBT activists, and Cliff College issued a statement calling Edwards’s post “unacceptable” and “inappropriate.”
The professor refused to delete his post, which ultimately led to his firing.
Edwards believes that more Christians will have to face similar situations that he underwent this year, warning that progressive ideology is “invading” both the church and society itself. However, he also said he is encouraged by others who have pushed back against progressive ideology within the church and hopes that the lawsuit against Cliff College will help raise awareness about free speech being at risk in the United Kingdom.
