Donald Trump said that South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) are on the short list to be his running mate in the 2024 general election.

He also dispelled rumors that he is considering Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as a vice presidential nominee and said his team never reached out to the independent candidates.

Speaking with Fox News Sunday host Maria Bartiromo, Trump said he won't announce who he plans to run with in the 2024 ticket for 'a while.'

Why... thank you for mentioning me alongside the Bard! You make me blush.

And good points about the recent phenomenon of first ladies chiming in. Nobody ever hardly knew how Maggie Thatcher’s husband even was! Minded his own business.

Yeah, the trouble is that there’s no perfect candidates out there.

If Zeldin could somehow deliver NY in November, maybe him. But I think NY is too far gone. So he’s too risky.

It has to be someone who can win in November above all other criteria (Captain Obvious).

That’s why Scott is still in play.

Demographically, the ideal would be a conservative Hispanic woman from a swing state. But that might be a unicorn.

Not Scott. He (supposedly) failed all, or most, of his classes in high school. And he’s basically a doofus.

He just proposed to someone — a female — after being a bachelor forever.

Yes. Robinson is very good. MUCH better than Scott. Smarter. Bolder. Less doofus.

(Vivek should be the VP.)

Vivek RamaSwampy is not qualified for Article 2 Section 1 Clause 5. He’s not a natural born Citizen. He’s an anchor baby born of two non Citizen parents.

Kevin Roberts of The Heritage Foundation would be an intriguing choice.

He’s not a politician, and he would be as daunting as DJT in the Oval Office.

(Kristi Noem had an affair with Corey Lewandowsky)

That’s never been proven! What’s your evidence?

“Kristi Noem is too good looking, it will drive some women away from voting for her.”

Exactly like Palin. Women are jealous of strong beautiful women. Like so many men are jealous of Trump.

“Kari Lake is an inexperienced loser.”

She’s a loser like every cyclist who came in second after Lance Armstrong.
