As we look ahead to the 2024 presidential race, there’s a lot of speculation about who Donald Trump will choose as his running mate if he wins the GOP nomination. While no candidates have publicly announced their intent to be Trump’s VP, insiders have hinted at the kind of candidate the former president is likely to choose.
According to reports, the candidate must be “loyal,” “charismatic,” and “ideologically aligned” with Trump. Trump places a lot of weight on how well a candidate presents themselves, so it is likely that this will be an important factor in his VP choice.
A recent Politico report stated that the 45th president is likely to choose a running mate “from three general lanes of candidates: women, conservatives of color, or a trusted adviser.”
While the insiders did not name anyone specifically, the options include several high-profile Republican women, such as South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, New York Rep. Elise Stefanik, Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and former Arizona journalist Kari Lake.
Ultimately, Trump is looking for a VP who shares his values and vision for America, and who will work with him to continue to make America great. With so many options available, it will be interesting to see who he ultimately chooses as his running mate.
