DeSantis on Trump/Haley:
• Haley refuses to rule out being Trump’s VP, says he absolutely would not be VP
• Says he’s the only candidate that can beat Trump, Haley can’t win because she doesn’t have enough support among conservatives and core Republicans

During an event Friday in New Hampshire, Ron DeSantis challenged Nikki Haley to directly state whether she would consider being Donald Trump's vice presidential running mate.
"Haley and Trump spend money against me. He has not spent any money against her and she has not spent any money against him," DeSantis said. "She will not answer directly, and she owes you an answer to this: Will she accept a vice presidential nomination from Donald Trump? Yes or no?"

Cruz and Hawley have tough Senate races in 2024; no viable for the VP nod, it would seem to me.
No, he’s committed to running for governor in NC.
He’s insulted her & called her names...he’d never pick her, so the question is stupid.
Paxton is the best known of all state attorneys general and is therefore hated by the left and many “moderates” as well.
I’m with Nikki on this one, because no matter how much pressure is put on me here at FR, I too refuse to rule out being Trump’s VP! [you hear that Donald, you can add me to your list!]
Hey Jo. Do you think anyone gives a crap what you think?
“I can see them boxing him into a VP pick”
who exactly is “them” and how exactly can “they” BOX Donald J. Trump into ANYTHING he doesn’t want?
Except for MAGA, everyone in the whole world is universally opposed to Trump, so exactly what leverage does anyone have on Trump to “box” him into anything?
“Trump has already said his VP list doesn’t include any of the current candidates.”
exactly like 2016!
Trump has already said his VP list doesn’t include any of the current candidates.
so ALL the comments that pretend to take that possibility are either ignorant or trolls or both ...
.
Nikki Haley has little to no business experience and she sounds as clueless as Joe, the last person the Media anointed.
I can’t support a ticket with Nikki Haley.
In two years after her United Nations gig, she was $8 Million dollars richer.
Probably.
Not a chance in He’ll she’s gonna be anything in Trump’s admin.
“Too many GOP primary voters would rather lose with a geriatric, liberal circus clown than win with an actual accomplished conservative.”
Here’s that tired old fantasy that there are legions of conservatives out there that don’t vote but will turn out for the right candidate.
Trump is not that Stupid- I hope.
None of them are immortal. Whomever, most likely Trump, gets the nod needs to choose wisely.
Ah, so, saying “Lake is a loser and won’t be on a ticket” is a “lies and false information”? Says who? She lost her last and first election (put another way, she’s never won an election), after a brief fling of supporting Trump he’s kept her at a public distance. She’s a media spotlight hog, which doesn’t suit Trump’s style. Besides, she has no experience to remotely qualify her as vice-president and in line to be president. But, sure, go ahead and run with ‘lies and false information’ if that makes you feel better, even if it further embarrasses you.
Is Gov. Huckabee-Sanders a good idea, a bad idea or a mix?
I think she’d be a plus to any candidate. So would her dad. That’s the great thing right now, Republicans have a deep bench and that bodes will for the next several elections.
SHE IS NOT ELIGIBLE-—PERIOD
“She would just be another Pence.”
Correct. The only difference is that we’d know she’s a snake going in. We had to wait a couple years to learn that about Pence.
