I think that Trump feels like he already has that vote going for him, so no need to double down. If he want's to increase voter likeability among the independent voters, he needs to pick a moderate as his running mate, like one of the two independent, former Democratic candidates like Manchin or Sinema.

I get that him going that direction would be to the horror of most Democrat voters, but honestly, it would be his best move.

I can see conservatives accepting Manchin, but Trump picking Sinema would likely horrify his voters since she was a democrat, has a lot of very liberal soundbytes out there, and she gives off psycho art teacher vibes.  Plus she votes in line with Biden a lot.

So did Manchin, but he gives off far less of a liberal vibe than she does, and perceptions are everything.
