Make Trump Pick a Brown Person for VP

If Biden picks a a person of color as VP, will that force Trump to replace Pence with someone more diverse and more "Hollywood Central Casting."

Can't wait to see how Nikki Haley fares with the white supremacists and people who hated Obama for being black.

He is going to put up his daughter doll, Ivanka. That way he can set her up for 2024.

there are brown people and women who need to shatter some glass ceilings. If the economy is down, Trump will lose so let's be bold and choose someone good to make history.

Should he prevail and be the Nominee.

Her smarts would be such a boom for this country in not only building coalitions of voters across the spectrum, but keep them intact for the 2022 Midterms.

They will then yell about how diverse the russiapublicans are while at the same time not mentioning Nimrata's heritage to the MAGAts.

To the rest of the news = Nimrata proves our diversity

To Faux/MAGAts = Nikki's white

exposing Nikki Haley for being a sellout.

She has built an entire career based on white-passing. Like so many GOPers, she doesn't know hardship and has no empathy unless it happens to her or her own family.

Know what, let them crucifier one of their own for being "brown." It may be the best thing that ever happened to Nikki, should they turn their vitriol on her, for once. Maybe she'll come to see the light.
