Robert Barnes' call seems pretty likely to me: Ben Carson.
Ben was already in the administration, he is a dedicated Trump loyalist, he never caused any issue, he's been campaigning hard for him, and he's probably going to be a physical rejection of "Drumpf is racist" attacks on the media. He's also a staunch cultural conservative. I've literally heard him explain to college students that the patriarchy is good and should return.
I don't think that Vivek is a Neo-Lib confederate like Styx is, and that his refusal to attack Trump is merely an attempt to secure the VP seat anyway. But I'm not convinced that Trump trusts him enough. I certainly don't think that Trump wants to share the spotlight with him. Ben Carson, never took the spotlight away from Trump.
First time I've really considered it, but I would really like that pick. A lot of people seem pretty convinced he will take a woman though. I've been very busy and unable to follow things closely for the past few months so I'm not sure whether orange man has made statements to back that up.
I think they're arguing that he wants to pick a woman because he's weak with women, and that's not really true. He's stronger than basically all other republicans on women. What he lost in 2020 was white suburban women, but that demographic has been swinging Democratic for 20 years. He still won more of than than other Republicans. The issue is that white, suburban, women are simply just more Leftist ideologically. So, he's basically drawing blood from a stone, already. He can't win any more white suburban women until more conservatives move to the suburbs, or more lefty women get married and become conservative.
Force of habit from dealing with normies and irregularity deniers.
Still waiting for an explanation of how 125% turnout happens.
While there were obvious problems, nobody can really argue that Joe Biden didn't get at least 70 million votes. Those numbers still matter for the purpose of analysis.

I still don't understand why we're taking the results of an obviously bullshit contest as indicative of anything.

Maybe they would be wasted in a VP role, but were they wasted in his HUD position?
I'd bet Ben wouldn't mind, and Trump could use a loyalist.
