Former President Donald Trump hinted Thursday that he’s close to deciding who he will pick as his running mate for the 2024 presidential election.

“I have sort of a pretty good idea,” the presumptive GOP presidential nominee told Fox News reporter Aishah Hasnie after meeting with congressional Republicans on Capitol Hill, noting that his potential choice was “probably” in the room with him at some point during his Thursday meetings.

“Look, we have some really talented people,” he added. “I have a pretty good idea.”

There’s two or three on his list that might be alright but the list doesn’t thrill me. I think Trump may just surprise us and not pick from that list after all. But then again, that wouldn’t surprise me that much.

We’ll just have to wait and see.

As a social conservative, I would hope that it isn’t either Stefanik or Burghum.

It’s definitely an opportunity.

We need a VP who is serious about the right to Bear Arms.

I hope President Trump vets his pick with Steven Bannon. Trump doesn't know how to pick 'em. Some men need their wives to pick out their ties. Other men need help picking out their presidential running mate.

It is wrong to do this.

Trump should wait to see who the Replacement Candidate for the exiting Joe Biden is.

“Stefanik”

I’m sure she’d be great, but female candidates always bring out the haters (cf. Palin)... and lot of attention would be on her clothing, hair, weight, family choices, etc.... and that’s a distraction. Let’s just go with a boring white guy who neither really adds nor subtracts but lets Trump keep the spotlight.

I think that a pit bull social liberal is perhaps one of the worst possible choices--unless you aren't a conservative.

Trump appeared to post something on social media indicating an airplane is being bought for the VP candidate that will be called “Trump Force Two.”

If that’s true, could be Burgum.

If it has to be a female, I could take Tulsi Gabbard if she converts to Christianity. She changed her position on 2A.

"Calvin Coolidge went thru this about a 100 years ago...."

He sure had a lot to choose from. So he settled on the best Engineer around, who sadly, wasn't a true fiscal Conservative believer like Coolidge.

(Highly recommend Amity Schlae's biography of Cooledge).

Gov. Glenn Youngkin puts Virginia in play. If we win VA, it is game over in the Electoral College.

“You’re being ridiculous. Kennedy is way worse than any of them.”

If Trump was considering Kennedy, he might as well select Gabbard. I think it is going to be either Stephanik or Rubio, with Scott a third option.
