OKLAHOMA CITY – Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin is offering her enthusiastic endorsement of Republican presidential contender Donald Trump, saying she supports the New York billionaire “100 percent.”
Fallin also said Wednesday she’s honored to be mentioned as a possible vice presidential candidate and would be happy to consider such an offer.
Fallin said her priority is to elect a conservative, pro-business Republican who is strong on national defense, and that she believes Trump is that candidate.
The two-term governor has not previously endorsed any of the GOP candidates for president. U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas won Oklahoma’s March presidential primary with 34 percent of the vote over Trump, who was second.
Fallin said she hasn’t been contacted by Trump or anyone with his campaign about running as vice president.
.She is VERY unhappy with Obama over the illegal alien 'children' he dumped in her state. I get updates from her..she's solid.

What's the skinny on Gov Fallin ?
Excellent! Anyone who says Trump isn’t conservative enough is simply ignoring the truth.
He’s not conservative. Yes, I back him fully. I shall write an editorial today.
Sessions and Hunter, as much as I love those 2 Patriots, are too old to be president after Trump though.
I;m glad to hear of her credentials first hand! thanks
She’ll be happy to bail on OK because the budget is all f’d up because of low oil prices.
I wonder if her messy divorce and daughter will figure into this? She actually let her daughter park her trailer house by the Governor’s Mansion.
“Sessions and Hunter, as much as I love those 2 Patriots, are too old to be president after Trump though.”
Actually, I was thinking of Cong.Duncan Hunter, the son of our beloved Duncan Hunter. The Sr. should be Secty. of Defense! Or Homeland security.
Always good to hear from an Oklahoman! Thanks.
Everyone has their own idea of just what defines a ‘conservative’. Compared to today’s GOP/DEM elites, JFK and Truman would be ‘Conservatives’....................
Oklahoma is in the worst financial crisis we have seen in years. In fact, it is historical and with the energy oil bust, it appears that it could be years before things are better. I hope it isn’t Mary Fallin, because she would be a huge liability to Trump. http://kfor.com/2015/12/16/900-million-budget-shortfall-expected-to-impact-oklahoma-childrens-education/
I think Fallin would be a terrible choice. Oklahoma is facing the worst budget crisis in history. Our schools have laid off teachers and OK already ranks at the bottom in education nationwide. Lots of mishandling from the top to the bottom, not to mention her personal life is almost identical to Sarah Palin’s, one hot mess. No, please do not select Mary.
Ugh. Ok, maybe not.....
[What’s the skinny on Gov Fallin ? ]
Word is she was divorced after unfaithfulness on her part. Don’t know how this will play with a vindictive media.
Otherwise, an excellent choice, despite any pandering to the PC police by choosing a woman.
Yeah Baby
The governor was sleeping with her state police bodyguard when she was LT. Gov....not a good situation. Caused a divorce.
Trump’s going to need Sessions in the US Senate to work with Trump to put together a coalition of US Senators who aren’t totally compromised beyond salvation. Cruz in the US Senate without Sessions???......disaster.
I’d prefer he chooses another CEO like himself...current Georgia Senator and former Dollar General CEO David Perdue fits the bill and provides regional balance to the ticket.
Never heard of her
If something happens to the president I dont want to give the nuclear codes to some woman governor who got the VP job because she was a woman governor
or any other minority to try to outpander the democrats
Mr Trump. Please stop with the affirmative action stuff
Hire a strong tough experienced person who can demonstrably back you up with the US Congress
I don’t know much about her and will do some more reading to find out more.
But one thing I can say:
Ain’t it grand to be having this conversation about who will be standing beside Republican Candidate for President of the United States Donald Trump!
