I rather think he will once again choose a running mate that has some resemblance of conservative normalcy, one that panders to a more traditional voter base then his own one. Like when he chose Pence to get all the evangelicals. To give them one reason to think, yeah, this serial adulterer that is a mockery to every Christian belief imaginable is actually the one sent from God to save us, Pence is all the proof we need.

And imho that's how it will go again. Give the traditional conservatives, those mainly united by hating libs, one tiny reason to believe it will not be all that bad with him, and they will vote accordingly as most people always do. Trump is stupid in many ways, no doubt, but I doubt he's that stupid to put a second Trump person on the irrelevant, but symbolically important VP ticket.

Maybe, but Trump has the evangelicals by the balls doesn't he?  He doesn't need someone like Pence on the ticket because the mansion and private jet mega church pastors are still going to tell their flock that Trump is the most Jesus-ey person ever and democrats are the spawn of satan if not literal demons.

DeSantis may be able to out-Jesus Trump in the primaries,  but if Trump gets the nomination and he's up against Biden again I don't see why the evangelical and traditional GOPers would change their tune or stay home.

A lot people in the USA can't even look at a political race and see the GOP candidate as anything but the deeply religious candidate and the only choice for a Christian to make.  It's like...Christianity and the GOP both got into the same pod like in the movie The Fly and they are forever bonded in this monsterous singularity we see before us. 

tl:dr - All Trump and Lake need to do is be more "religious" than the democrats, and I've literally heard republicans say that they aren't sure democrats can even get into heaven.
