Trump Vetting Running Mates, Potential Candidates Revealed
iHeart Daily News Update ^ | June 6, 2024 | Jason Hall

Former President Donald Trump has reportedly started the process of vetting running mate contenders with at least seven candidates reportedly having received documents from his campaign, the New York Post reported on Thursday (June 5).

Republican Sens. Marco Rubio (Florida), JD Vance (Ohio) and Tim Scott (South Carolina), Reps. Byron Donalds (Florida) and Elise Stefanik (New York), North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and former Trump administration Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson have all reportedly exchanged varying degrees of vetting documents with the Trump campaign, a source with knowledge of the situation confirmed. The source said that the vetting process has been in the works for the past month.

Trump campaign spokesman Brian Hughes told the New York Post that the former president hasn't made a decision on his running mate nor revealed when he plans to.

“Anyone claiming to know who or when President Trump will choose his VP is lying, unless the person is named Donald J. Trump,” Hughes said in a statement.

Trump previously indicated to News12 that his running mate decision would be made "probably not too much before" the start of the Republican National Convention, where he'll formally be named the GOP presidential nominee, scheduled from July 15 to 18.

“We have so many,” Trump said at the time. ”I don’t want to do that, we have so many.”

“We have many people who would do a fantastic job,” he added.

I would like to watch the Jewish pit bull, Stefanik, debate Kamala on Fox.
The leftist media is slamming her already which means they’re afraid.

“I want someone who will be trumps pitbull and terrify the commies”
The pitbull, Stefanik, is not as tall as Golda Meir was, but her jaws are like steel.
In a debate, the pitbull would clamp her jaws on Kamala’s neck and the Kamala’s cackling would grind to a halt! LOL!

No kidding, your comment I do believe.

The best example of how bass ackwards the thinking is here, I recall when AOC first appeared and was an obvious commie. People here could simply not get enough of posting her dance video and claiming to the effect that something that hot could not be that bad. This crap went on for about a year before it stopped.

And they fall for leftist media garbage. When Kristi Noem let it be known she killed a vicious dog, the poster here agreed with the leftists she’s not fit to be a VP. For crying out loud, dangerous animals are killed all the time by cops, humane societies, owners, animal care centers and vets. So what if she killed her own dog.

And we’ve had major infighting over the Ukraine war where many Freepers act like they actually want a nuke war.

So yes, it does not matter who is picked for Trump’s VP. That person will be thought of as the next Hitler.

“We need someone who will continue MAGA”, and, just as importantly, make assassination a less likely event!

I think Trump values (1) loyalty and (2) someone who can win in 2028. Some people think Wes Moore will be the Democrat nominee in 2028 but I think once Trump wins in 2024, Maryland will likely see budget deficits starting in 2025 and then Wes Moore won’t look so good anymore.

I like Byron Donalds. He’s very pro-Trump and pro-MAGA. I assume Donalds being African-American will help Trump, even if he’s not female. Plus, he will then be the second African-American president in 2028. That would probably PO Obamanation, which is another plus.

I didn’t know Stefanik is Jewish. Do you know what branch of Judaism she practices?
