I have been reading a lot of Roger stone's writings lately.  Watching his interviews. This not merely because he has contributed to the cause of freedom than any man alive. It is because he is a master strategist and I was hoping to pick up on his political strategies. 

Trump listens to this guy but not nearly enough. It's the reason why the January 6 plot to save the country failed. 

Anyway he has 2 strategic principles he helps repu lican candidates utilize. He has many more butthis thread is about these 2 principles. 

1. The VP pick should be somebody who isn't going to harm your campaign. 

This is why people Roger stone consults with usually have boring VP picks. 

2. Do whatever you can to expand your base without pissing off your current base enough to get them to not vote for you.

Tucker Carlson and Vivek Ramaswamy both violate rule number one and neither of the 2 will expand Trump's base. 

There is a prevalent myth that DeSantis voters won't be as excited to vote for trump but I can tell you that when I was in Florida there were already a lot of desantis/trump 24 hats and shirts. DeSantis will probably not harm Trump in Amy way with his actions but he also is unlikely to expand his base. 

In one interview that Trump had he exposed his shortlist of VP picks. The one that would I think expand his base a bit without doing anything that will effect trump in an overly negative way  is on the shortlist. 

Trumps comments lately have also been laying the groundwork for this VP pick.

"We have to put party aside. We need to just do what's right for america and follow common sense. We need common sense candidates" basically things along this line. 

This is all to prep everybody to accept Tulsi Gabbard as Trump's VP. She expands the base. She won't say anything overly stupid and she is a fun candidate to watch as well as being anti establishment and keeping an anti establishment message her entire political career.
