If Harris picked a different candidate would she have won. Did she sacrifice the presidency to gain Minnesota?

Nobody gives a shit about the vice presidents.
You might want to give a damn if your candidate is a 78-year-old man.
One of our guys was really worried that he would pick Nikki Haley.
You mean the fearmongering retard who spammed DeSantis shit for the longest time?
Stick to worrying about your own country's politics.
Given Trump's history of God-awful appointments, and current rumors that he will give Pompeo a cabinet level position, it's not a stupid thing to worry about. Also, when I argued with him on behalf of Trump, most people here upvoted him and downvoted me. And now you call him retarded? But I can say he's legit and good faith.
Why? You worry about mine.
That's not really the point I was making. Americans don't give a shit about VP picks, its just a simple fact. Almost nobody ever knows who the VPs were before they were chosen. Ask a random American to name a VP before the year 2000 off the top of their head (excluding Gerald Ford and Al Gore for obvious reasons) and they probably wouldn't be able to do it. I had never heard of Vance nor Walz before they were chosen, and the same applied for Pence back in 2016.
As for Trump's appointments, yeah, there's a major risk there, that has little to do with the OP's question about whether the VP choice impacted people's votes. Trump would have to do something monstrously stupid for the VP pick to impact people's votes, like picking fucking Fauci as his VP or something.
You think I give a shit about the upvotes/downvotes of arguments on the internet? Don't attribute the random mass retardation of imbeciles to me when my opinion is clearly fucking different than what you're describing, unless me calling the guy a fearmongering retard wasn't fucking enough for you to comprehend that.
All I know is that you live somewhere in Europe, and I don't generally care about their elections outside of a passing glance at the results, and I certainly don't get involved in any major discussions about their shit. The biggest opinion I'll have on it is "good for them" when shit works out or "that's a shame" when it doesn't.
