Donalds, 44, told Breitbart News he would “of course” be open to the job if Trump were to offer it.
“If it came up? Oh yeah, of course, because you have the opportunity to do really powerful things for the country and really help shape the country,” Donalds said. “But I’m a member of Congress. I just do my job. I let everybody else speculate on the other stuff.”
Having gone from being raised by a single mother in Brooklyn’s inner city to becoming one of five black Republicans in Congress, Donalds is widely viewed as a rising star among his party.
The Florida Republican has a deep background in finance and banking that has landed him a spot on the Financial Services Committee, and he has joined in on congressional Republicans’ most high-profile probe, that of the Biden family’s business dealings, by way of the Oversight Committee.
In May, Donalds appeared on a CNN panel after Trump’s heated town hall with the outlet, delivering what appeared to be his party’s de facto response to the ordeal. Donalds said moderator Kaitlan Collins spent “more time interjecting her own viewpoints” during the event. Upon being interrupted, Donalds fired back, “Are you guys now going to interject your opinions on me or do I get a chance?”
Later that month Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) wrote on social media, “Retweet this if you think my friend [Byron Donalds] would make a great choice for Vice President.”

His only qualifications are being black and speaking English.
Evangelicals are weak cucks.
Great tag team name potential. Up there in WWE "Legion of Doom" or The Megapowers" territory.
So you completely discount that he’s part of the freedom caucus and discount his conservative record?
Not sure I understand your criteria for evaluating him but have at it.
The caucus Majorie Taylor Greene was in?
The 3 time GED failure Boebert is in?
A record of meaningless votes?
Now one beat from POTUS?
Here’s another “conservative”…

Maybe you are in the wrong party.
Pence made sense as a contrast to Trump. He needs someone who isn’t a pale echo of himself. No imitators or sycophants please.
Very strong black voice from the right. He’d be a good choie.
I love him, but I don’t think he is ready yet.
He’s 100 Maga. So I guess you would not vote fo4 him them, even if he 8s 100 Maga?
You are on an Evanglical site. I hope you turn to the Bible, and make YESHUA the LORD of your life.
I think he should run for Govenor in 26 first.
SAME HERE——WHO IS HE???
Unconstitutional.
Gen Flynn or GTFO
Who?!
No, Flynn for DOD.
The Lieutenant Governor of NC also looks interesting. He’s a good speaker and appears to be a good Christian. I think Trump should choose a conservative black Christian for VP.
Oh yeah, you’re right. Good call.
