Who's the perfect VP for Trump?

As Donald Trump scours the landscape in hopes to land the perfect VP, Bill O'Reilly, a close friend of his, has touted the perfect candidate: Governor Susana Martinez (R-NM). Look at her profile: Latina, female, and charismatic. And eminently successful!
A superb VP candidate!

Dump Trump movement takes a dump

Taking a look at a movement--with Ted Cruz as its dopey poster child --motivated to deactivate The Donald, one can see that, by observing election results, the "Dump Trump" cause has no pizazz! Hey, just look at Cruz' anemic performance in Texas (his adopted home state--remember he's from Canada), where he failed to muster anything remotely close to a clean sweep; then look at Trump's dominating NY home-state victory sweep! The numbers in Texas reveal Cruz' mild hometown performance, amounting to a mere 67% delegate take; the numbers in Trump's hometown, by contrast, reveal a Trump takedown, amounting to a 94% delegate haul.
Dump Trump movement drops a deuce

Maine can't make up its mind in Campaign 2016 Republican contest

In early March 2016, Maine held caucuses, and the result was Cruz taking 12 votes and Trump taking 9. But 3 weeks later, Maine abruptly--and probably corruptly--revised its delegate allocation, giving virtually all of them to Ted Cruz.

What the hell is going on?
Maine betrays its electorate



Trump comes home; Cruz run out of New York


After a win in Wisconsin, way out who knows where, Ted Cruz was run out of New York in its election contest--while Donald Trump soared to a much-better-than-expected victory. 

After denigrating New York for its so-called liberal "New York values" in a primary debate, Cruz faced an onslaught of scathing attacks from Trump, who praised NY for its strength of character and great kindness in the face of the Twin Towers attacks. Trump praised those "New York values," and Cruz faced annihilation in NY.

Arizona, Utah kind to Trump, Cruz, but American Samoa not quite so much in campaign 2016 contests

Meanwhile, American Samoa preferred to go largely unpledged (unbound), though of the 9 delegates 1 endorsed Trump and 1 endorsed Cruz.
