By Nolan D. McCaskill 05/04/16 06:54 AM EDT Updated 05/04/16 07:50 AM EDT Donald Trumps campaign has begun vetting vice-presidential picks, but its too soon to disclose any names, the presumptive Republican nominee said Wednesday.
Calling into MSNBCs Morning Joe following a decisive victory in Indiana that knocked Texas Sen. Ted Cruz out of the race, Trump was mum on naming people hes considering as his running mate.
Well, its too soon. I just dont want to do it, Trump said. I think that, you know, a lot of people are talking about certain names, and certainly those are the names we are thinking of.
He did, however, suggest he would choose a politician.
I have the business, lets call them talents, and I think Ill probably go the political route, he continued. Somebody that can help me with legislation and somebody that can help me get things passed and somebody thats been friends with the senators and congressmen and all so we dont have to go the executive order route as much as Obama did, you know, where he cant get anything approved so he just keeps signing executive orders.
