Earlier, we told you about the Democrats trolling tomorrow night's debate. Now, Team Trump is at it. If there is one thing they are good at, it is getting media attention and their latest gimmick is sure to do that.
NEW: Trump’s super PAC has made a Vice Presidential Debate 2024 website with the other GOP candidates currently running for President on it:

Basically, this is Trump's way of saying (again), he has this primary all wrapped up and the folks debating tomorrow night all just want to be his VP pick. For the record, DeSantis has said he wouldn't accept a VP invitation from Trump and Vivek has said he is not interested in any other position but the top position. Asa has said he wouldn't even support Trump for the nomination if he won, so perhaps Trump isn't entirely right about his theory.
A Fox employee tells me this site is banned from working on Fox computers. This is what pops up for Fox employees when they try to view the website, I am told: https://t.co/wtyCBdC5Ia pic.twitter.com/rh72DuyMXa

Also, apparently Fox, the host of the debate, is not amused by the site and is blocking employees from accessing the site on company computers.
A double troll because none of them are getting picked!

Pretty sure Kari Lake or Marjorie Taylor Greene think they have that lane locked up.

Trump advisor Jason Miller seemed to like it.
There aren't enough fire emojis to describe this.

There were definite fans of the ploy.

Others were not so impressed.
Too bad he’s too afraid to debate… https://t.co/67CfbUcXCf

The arrogance & sense of entitlement is nauseating https://t.co/RJZhDH1QfM

Still others saw it as a way to cover for not showing up to the debate. Basically, it is bombast to cover for cowardice.
Pence has a fly on his head! 🤣

Poor Pence will never live that down. As far as we know, the fly will not attend tomorrow's debate.
Trump is a Master troll artist 🤣🤣🤣

Admittedly, this is true. No one will ever out troll Trump. The question America will answer is if that is important or if they are ready to move on to a not so entertaining, but possibly more restrained candidate. The primaries will tell the story.
