Former President Trump on Sunday further fueled speculation over his pick for a 2024 running mate, dropping the names of Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) and South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) when asked about who he is favoring.
Trump, in an interview with Fox News “Sunday Morning Futures” anchor Maria Bartiromo, was asked when he will announce his pick for vice president, to which he said, “Not for a while. We have so many great people in the Republican Party, but not for a while.”
Bartiromo further pressed the former president over how he is picking his running mate.
“Always it’s got to be one thing,” Trump said. “It’s got to be who would able to be a good president. I mean, you always have to think that because you know, a civil emergency…things happen right? No matter who you are, things happen. It’s got to be number one. Who’s your enemy.”
He further stated that there is “a lot of good people,” to which Bartiromo asked if Trump has not decided who it is.
