I don't think MTG would hurt his chances. She's not the sharpest knife, but she's smarter and more articulate than most Dems, she has decent anti-establishment cred with none of DeSantis' baggage, the MAGA base like her and she'll dramatically decrease the chances of Trump "dying suddenly" if he's elected. If he ran Haley as a VP, she'd end up president in six months.
She's been incredibly demonized, and she makes it somewhat easy to demonize her. I think she'd hurt with swing voters in a way Kari Lake or even Vivek would not.
Ideally, I'd like Rand Paul. They'd be praying to Satan for Trump's health.
Rand Paul would be perfect, but he's made it pretty clear he wants to pick a woman for VP. Which pisses me off from the get-go, but if it's going to be a woman, it should be MTG or someone else who's there just to antagonize the left. He flat-out said in his Iowa victory speech that he thinks Kari Lake is going to be an Arizona Senator someday, which indicates that he's not going to pick her. I think Kristi Noem might be good, if she'd take it.
I want it to be MTG just to watch the leftist meltdown.
I'd rather it be someone whom they hate just as much, but who would not hurt his chances as much.

Rand is too important as a Senator to be useful as VP. I'd rather see President Rand some day but I doubt that'll ever happen.
We're gonna need more allies in the House of representatives because if Republicans don't get a majority, he'll be impeached 4, maybe 6 times.
So, lets just keep MTG in place.
