On Monday presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump will return to the Hampton Roads area for the 3rd time in 10 months. He will give a speech on “veterans reform” at the Westin Virginia Beach Town Center. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie will be joining him. The event will begin at 1:00 pm but is not open to the public. However the press is invited and may apply for press passes here.
This seems curious to me. Why is the Trump campaign encouraging the press to attend an event that is not open to the public? Only press? Might this be a set up for a big announcement? Why is Chris Christie joining Trump in Virginia Beach to talk about veteran reform when Christie isn’t even a veteran? Christie had something else on his schedule that was cancelled so he could be in Virginia with Trump. What’s up with that? Might Trump announce Christie is his choice for Vice President? Some say Christie will not be Trump’s VP. But I can’t see any other reason for Christie to be with Trump in Virginia on Monday.

It might come down to Virginia in the end. Good strategy. Christie for AG.
Publicity stunt. Chris Christie would be an awful pick, he’s wildly unpopular in his own state.
Birds of a feather?
Pretty much.
…but he is the candidate of the people who are fed up with both parties during this cycle. That needs to be respected even those who “think they know better” in both parties won’t accept it.
No, it doesn’t need to be respected when the people who picked him are the minority of the smaller of the two political parties. The minority doesn’t get to force its will on the majority.
Sound like a great way for Trump to get people talking about his campaign. People made similar speculation when he campaigned in Ohio with newt Gingrich.
The difference being that he has to chose someone for VP this week.
