LITTLE ROCK,Ark.--Donald Trump said today he is possibly considering Senator Tom Cotton for a running mate or a top position in his administration.
In an interview today with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt, the host suggested Trump pick either Senator Cotton or New Jersey Governor Chris Christie as his running mate.
Trump said he can't reveal his thinking in considering his VEEP pick, but had positive things to say about Arkansas' junior senator.
"I've gotten very good, you know, very good statements from Senator Cotton, who is a, you know, who I know, whose parents I know and met," Trump said. "I think that he is a very talented guy. He's also very popular. He's a very popular person. So these are two names that I have high on the list for something at least, that I can tell you."
Hewitt cited Cotton's military experience as an asset to Trump's campaign

Cotton is reportedly is moving up the list, though he says he’s not being vetted. He’s kinda like a young Sessions. A touch inexperienced but a solid conservative, strong choice from a military perspective. We could do far far worse.
A lot of people on this thread are complaining that he wasn’t in favor of nominating Trump, to which I say, so what? I Trump himself doesn’t mind that why should anyone else? You expand your support rather than trash anyone who wasn’t with you from the beginning.
He was the only one who didn’t vote for the Corker Amendment.
