ANALYSIS – Is Trump regretting his VP pick? Will Trump tell Vance he is “fired”? When former President Donald Trump selected J.D. Vance as his vice presidential candidate soon after surviving an assassination attempt, some called the choice bold and a doubling down on Trumpism.
I said he could help Trump make his case in 2024 and be the GOP standard bearer in 2028. Still, I also said I would have preferred Trump had picked a woman, and that I had some reservations about Vance as VP, including his youth and inexperience.

The primary niceties, convention hoopla and vice presidential speculation aside, we have the presidential rematch that no one wants in November. Right?
Noted contrarian and Politico media critic Jack Shafer writes that we have exactly the rematch the voters want – and have telegraphed that choice in the primaries.
Doubts about the quality of the candidates, the public desire to see either one run yet again…that's just a press narrative that took root, blossomed early, and shows no signs of withering. That's distressing for a press corps that is continually looking for fresh angles in new stories:
While politics doesn't exist for the amusement of reporters, and candidates, despite their inclinations to the contrary, are not reality show contestants. So yes: voters have demonstrated they want these two very well known, thoroughly understood retreads to run one more time.
But just as misreading (or failing to fully study) polling as Shafer charges, let's be clear that the folks who've made it clear they want Biden and Trump Vol. 2 are primary voters – to a large extent, motivated partisans who go to the polls because that's what they do. Studies have repeatedly shown that most eligible voters don't show up for primaries.
That means the small minority of eligible voters who do show up are keen on a Biden-Trump rematch. That's not exactly a popular groundswell of opinion – and most certainly not enough to fully douse the narrative that most voters aren't eager to see Biden and Trump one more time.
And so on. The plain fact is that the rematch is on (barring unforeseen events) and irrespective of whether the majority of voters want it, the minority who showed up in the primaries (so far) have made the decision for everyone else.
Buckle up. It's going to be a very rough eight months.
