DES MOINES, Iowa, Jan 10 (Reuters) - Donald Trump said on Wednesday that he knows who he wants for his running mate in the 2024 race for president and that his commitment to the NATO alliance will depend on how Europeans treat the United States.

The frontrunner for the Republican nomination, Trump was asked by anchors at a live Fox News town hall who was under consideration for vice president on his ticket.

"I can't tell you that really. I mean I know who it's going to be," Trump told the gathering of Republican voters in Des Moines, Iowa, five days before that Midwestern state's first-in-the-country nominating context.

Lee Zeldin is an Army vet.

Andrew Torba is trivial noise. His fabricated "realDonaldTrump" account was disastrous for Gab.

I agree that it will probably be Gabbard.

No. She is far from a conservative. Very far

As is Trump.

Sara Huckabee’s a proven winner.

And so is Elise Stefanik.

But will either of them help Trump in picking up independents, or even some of the very moderate Democrats (if there is such a thing)? Not likely.

We are going to need someone who can attract people other than just Republicans. Carson was mentioned, and I have a lot of respect for him and his accomplishments. But I think he's just too much of a professional and a gentleman. And again, I think he'd help Trump attract voters outside of the normal Republican base. Would love to see him in a cabinet position though...perhaps Surgeon General?

Good points.......a VP nominee should bring an addition to the candidate’s existing voting strength.

I’m serious. He and Elon are in a different league and unequally a great deal smarter than practically the whole population.

I have a lawyer son with a hi IQ..
Newt said Trump has a hi IQ, and some called him rude. I ask my son if it was being rude, and he said, not rude.. Impatience.

I have a young grandson, also hi IQ and he talks adult level.

Intelligence is wonderful.. And isn’t always understood by others.

Dr. Carson was failing in school. His mother made him read.. And he discovered he could answer questions in school.. He went from being considered slow, to smart.

His life is inspiring.

It should have been DeSantis who would have been set up perfectly for 8 years following Trump, but instead DeSantis stabbed Trump in the back and showed his loyalty to deep state Bush RINO neoCONs.

Better that we found out about meatball now rather than later, but still extremely disappointing and tragic.

Tulsi would be great as SOS because she and DJT think alike on things Foreign. Not as VP because their domestic views. I think it will be Gov Noem of SD
